I've hit some of the worst Axis shortages in the past year, and to some extent this year, 3 months seems a bit of a stretch for me to buy. When I hear about the product shortages, or longer lead times from one distributor, I usually just go to one of their larger distributors. I've had multiple problems with Ingram Micro's lack of stock, and giving me 3-5 week lead times. I'll call Anixter or ADI and have the product drop shipped the next day. My advice would be to talk a different distributor if they're telling you 3 months.

We have been hit with the P1448-LE's on back order as well. Like anything this is a good problem, bad problem.

We have been hit PTZ's unable to get for months, 14xx series are hard to get and when we do install then they break down within a few weeks..
Had it with Axis TBH.
I think everyone thinks this is good because they are selling a lot of kit.
I wonder if its actually they build to project. We had a whole discussion in the office around this and we are convinced if you want some of their products they make x for a project add some Y for the distribution channel and if you happen to order when Y has run out you are stuck.
I think they are more project led than we think.

Axis needs to stop acting like a boutique camera manufacturer and start behaving like the #1 camera manufacturer in the world. Do we have keep reminding them lots of people around the world want to use and buy your cameras because of your high quality & support? How did they not anticipate a high demand on their new 4K dome camera? People generally like IR 4K cameras and it being from Axis prolly excited a lot of clients out there. How many old Axis cameras do you see on specs? If they over produce for a few years folks will still be purchasing these cameras for a long time so stop worrying about your inventory. I understand quality control and getting the camera produced right the first time but come on. You guys are Axis not Sentry 360.

2x to 4x orders ahead of projections? Maybe the market and or government entities are reacting to Hikvision's increasingly negative view.

The biggest issue with European manufacturers - they take off 30 days because they have to and give little to no consideration for everyone else in the WORLD that works their butts off continuing to sell THEIR products. THEN when the time comes to "catch" up after they've spent their inventories for the month they mandated everyone leave - all of those rested people have to come back and re-learn what they're doing again - leading to another 30 days of chaos. I was once told by an Italian business partner that he wishes they could take one or two weeks off at a time in lieu of the entire month of July (or August - can't really remember). He said that the biggest issue is when he comes back to work, he cannot remember what he left off doing and so has to get reoriented again - another 30 days shot.
Well - this is why the US has some of the highest productivity per hour performance - because we truly are workaholics.
I actually wouldn't mind taking 30 days off and taking another 30 to remember what I was doing before I left.

I'm done with waiting for Axis. If they're available I'll buy. But I'm going to start buying Bosch if it gets to silly lead times.

And still getting back orders for product from distributors. This is getting ridiculous!
