Hi,

I didn't find information here about Digital Watchdog. There seem to have a lot of reps who are responding to people but what about other technician?

What do people think about Digital Watchdog? How do they perform vs Hikvision or axis or Bosch? Does anyone have comment good or bad about that product?

Thanks

Jonathan,

We looked into DW just over a year and a half ago, our test is here: IPVM - Network Optix/Digital Watchdog Test

You can also use the search in the upper right-hand corner for DW specific results:

IPVM Search Digital Watchdog

I'm guessing you'll get some integrator responses as well.

Their cameras are OEMed and not made themselves. The units we have worked with had very buggy firmware and under performed the Axis and Hikvision units we normally sell. They were probably more on par with a Dahua product IMO, maybe a step below. Overall, for the price paid, they are clearly inferior if you ask me. 

However, we love the Spectrum (Nx Witness OEM) product. It is our standard VMS of choice.

One of the suspects was Pravis which was discussed below:
