Leave a Review Zosi Smart
Good system for the price, but the app lets it down.
I bought the ZosiSmart camera system approx 2 months ago and have been using it for around 6 weeks now. The camera quality is good, the fitting will require some knowledge and drilling through walls etc if you want a tidy job, so you’ll need a professional to install. Everything works as you would expect, the night vision is of a decent quality but fog, rain and mist can make the picture a little harder to see clearly. I’ve also had problems with spiders making webs across the lens of the cameras which also distorts the view. I bought the system without hard drive and installed my own. It was very easy to install by myself and has worked perfectly. If you want the option to record you need to buy the system with a hard drive.
The app is very disappointing if I am totally honest. When viewing the cameras by the app it can take approx 30 seconds for the image to start playing. Even when I am sat in the house using my fibre broadband at minimum speeds of 50mbps I can not get the playback function to work. So I’m my opinion it almost makes the system pointless. If I am at work and my house alarm is triggered, I would like to be able to rewind footage to see if I can see anyone entering the property, but that function on the app simply does not work.
All in all a decent system with decent quality cameras at a fair price, but the app is of poor quality.Show lessthis poo is cold
For the price and quality GREAT
Only thing is being that it’s a wired system and it’s 1080 pixel which is very very detailed and good, when you zoom in it gets hard to see from a far away point, but you can see the whole bottom of my block and the whole top of my block clearly. I have 2 outfront one 2 in the side and one in back,Doesn’t have the option to hear anything, and it does have infrared and LED works good at night!!!But sometimes it loading,And you want to see it right away by turning your phone off anon yeah it only takes a minute two, yes it has motion sensor and has the option to either let them come through or not, Anything sets it off the alerts I meanShow lessrobroc89
Great system terrible app
The cctv system brings the rating up from a minus figure for the app. Sadly a very good quality system which is easy to install and gives a high quality image is hard to work both the ancient software and the horrifically glitchy and awful to operate app. When I open the app, the screens are all black - I just have to know which ones belong the cameras I’ve installed. Play back crashes throughout every single time without fail. It doesn’t load, doesn’t move through the timeline, freezes, and then crashes. Every time. I would like to say there have been improvements but there have been no changes and the issues of 8 months ago remain unresolved. It’s a nightmare to watch anything back, but when I do - at least I’m pleased with the quality of what’s been captured! The time on playback is now out by around 1 hour 15 mins. Playback is also not immediately captured. So you not only miss the action on the screen live because it fails to open after several minutes of loading, but you have to wait about 3-5 mins to then watch it back on playback. Not good. No alerts now again - suddenly stopped working. Great cctv cameras. Appalling app.Show lessquick and very useful

You can take a screenshot of the current comment section, submit it to the app, and leave your contact information. I will arrange a technician to troubleshoot the problem for you. Thank you very much for your comments. Be safe and jave a great day!App works but can be better
Works but doesnt show live view when it first opens and need to press different buttons to engage in live view. Kind of unnecessary step for no real reason.
Also their is no way to view more than 4 cameras on the screen at once. Would be nice to be able to watch all 8 in one screen instead of having to flip through
Overall the app seems stable and hasn’t crashed, connects fairly well and does its job. Just can improve with a few changesShow lessBTRsam
Way better than expected
The system was surprisingly better than expected. As a Security Guard, we use the Hik vision stuff, and Zosi is a whole lot better. Paid an electrician that installs cameras, was impressed enough, that going forward, he will be using this system. For 8 cameras it cost me less than a third, what a security company was going to charge me for 3 cameras.Show lessAries Lynn
Awful
This app is terrible. Clumsy/laborious interface, constant playback issues, crashes all the time with no rhyme or reason—bottom line, just a very cheaply made program to manage your security cameras. You can tell Sosi did “just enough” to check the box with little to no effort to create a good product. This app has a LONG way to go. If you’re looking for a modern camera software system, steer clear of Sosi. They need to take their cues from the big names like Ring and Nest if they want consumers to take them seriously. It baffles me how this app has a 4-star average rating, stay clear.Show lessFPcar

Thank you very much for your comments. Be safe and jave a great day!Good system
We’ve had the 8 Chanel four camera system for over two years now and not had a problem with it. In my opinion It’s a better option than getting an alarm as you can clearly see the night vision red lights glowing around the camera lens showing any potential intruders that they are watching.
Thanks Zosi, Phill.Show lessfbdjdiddudjd

Thank you very much for your comments. Be safe and jave a great day!More options from the app
Love the quality of the pictures! I wish the app had as many options as the Zosi program itself. We had to go buy a tv so we had a monitor to set it up. Would have been nice to have been able to do everything remotely from a phone or computer. Also wish there was a way to remotely re-start the system. We were away and it went down. Which means no cameras were recording when we needed them the most. We also keep losing signal to a camera. It doesn’t make sense. Is there a way to use a camera to make another cameras signal stronger?Show lessHillfactor
