Anyone with any recommendations? Given the recent security issues looking for alternatives.

Needs to support ONVIF, want it to be under $1,000 for 8 channels. Thanks.

What inexpensive NVR today is not made by Dahua, Hikvision or through their OEMs? I am literally not sure. I'm curious to hear answers myself.

Maybe the Exacq M Series? Others?

This was a tough question a couple years ago, now it may be even tougher...

Where can one buy Hitron or Surveon recorders? They tend to be more OEMs and, e.g., I searched for them in US shopping sites, no matches.

Would be good to know the recording parameters (# of cameras, resolution, motion recording, frame rate, retention time, etc) to know what size HD/disk array would be appropriate.

There are a few, but you can look at Uniview if you are looking for a sizable Chinese manufacturer.

Exacq & Hanwha.  Probably the only 2 that are easily purchased and have sufficient local support.
