Leave a Review Agent DVR
Excellent App
This app does what it claims. Low reviews are unfair as they are from people how haven’t taken the time to understand how this free to use system works. There are no hidden charges and the developer looks like they respect privacy (unlike a lot of the others out there).
iSpy Agent DVR needs to be installed on a computer with your cameras connected. This app acts as a viewer/remote control.
There is a subscription if you wish to view from anywhere outside you local network (outside the network your computer is on running iSpy Agent DVR). I must admit the subscription is out my price range, but totally understand that running, managing the servers to provide this service comes at a cost.
This system is excellent and it completely It’s free for use on your local network.
It’s system including this app works very well.Show lessDA1975
Works great for intranet and Internet
Not sure what happened to all the reviews but been using this app over a year now and it only gets better with each update.
Works great for my Internet and my paid yearly subscription Internet server at my church.
Works with all my various cameras from really old D link to more modern cameras.
Very customizable screens and options.Show lessJosephAW
Best CCTV DVR software for the buck.
I tried several free and pay DVR services for my cameras and I ended up with Agent DVR as my final choice. It's not crippleware but fully functional for a local network and intranet, it's only when you want to port forward in or use their app for notifications and a few other features thats where you have to pay for a subscription. This allows you to put the software through the paces and you can determine whether this is the right fit for you. Comparing it to other subscription services that made you pay per camera for service this allows as many cameras as your computer can handle. Ended up purchasing the next level up from the base of scription in order to assign users various permissions. The base subscription does not allow that but if you're the only user that might work for you. I'm setting it up for a small nonprofit so I have several users that want to view the DVR recordings. Also Agent DVR gives you find tune controls so that you can get it exactly the way you want it and can customize media recording locations and even save to FTP storage. The developer responds quickly to technical issues through Reddit and is working to improve the app even more. For a newbie user it may seem a little overwhelming at first but eventually you'll get the hang of it and how to customize it the way you want and what views you want to see and what alert you want to receive from which camera. Software works with a plethora of cameras including obsolete cameras like old d-link cameras usb cameras and my Hughes net 2132LES cameras so they can be given a extended life as well as custom urls for your cameras.
Update: now supports local intranet cameras and paid subscription all in the same app, no need for home screen web shortcuts.Show lessDeveloper Response
The app is for remote access not local access. For local access just use a web browser.
