What is a DVR Recorder?
A DVR recorder is a way to record video from your surveillance camera.  DVR recorders come in a variety of forms. The most common style is a standalone DVR (or standalone security DVR).  These allow you to connect either 4, 8, or 16 cameras (depending on the model) to a standalone piece of hardware. This DVR allows you to view any or all of your cameras at one time on a TV or computer monitor.  It also allows you to record continuously, on a schedule, or most commonly - on motion detection.  Our security DVR systems also offer the ability to view your cameras over the internet from anywhere in the world using your computer or mobile phone.
Which Kind Do I Need?
That is a question that has different answers for every customer - but we will try to answer it.  By and large, the vast majority of customers end up ordering a standalone security DVR.  This is because they are ready to go out of the box and not use their computer for the surveillance.  If you're on a tight budget, the best option is a DVR card or USB DVR.  These cost quite a bit less because they need to use your computer to operate.  The DVR card will need to be installed into a vacant PCI slot in your computer and the USB DVR will connect to your Windows computer's USB port.  Then you install the included software onto the computer.  The combination of a DVR card or USB DVR and your computer essentially turns your computer into a DVR.  So you either purchase the standalone DVR and that is it - or you purchase the DVR card or a USB DVR and then you must use it with your computer.  All roads lead to the same end result, but each system has its pros and cons. If you have any doubt which one you need - you can always call and speak to one of our friendly experts at 866-720-0779.
