Cameras are an essential aspect of your home’s defense. To ensure you select the best system for your household, you need to decide how you would like your system to store video. Some Scottsdale families are fine with movement-activated clips saved in the cloud. But if you need more, like round-the-clock recording and on-premises storage, you must explore different options.

If you don’t want any lapses in your footage, Vivint Playback DVR is an exceptional option. Learn more about this service and why it’s a worthwhile enhancement to your Scottsdale home security system.

What’s Vivint Playback DVR?

Vivint Playback DVR is a supplemental solution that gives you as much as 10 days of 24-hour recording. It gives you all the footage you seek and quite a bit more. Here are several of the standout features:

  • Vivint Playback works with up to 12 cameras
  • Event-activated markers enable you to locate and share the most important moments easily
  • Footage is stored directly to SD cards inside your cameras and is simple to access through the Vivint mobile app
  • Vivint Playback is compatible with the Indoor Camera Pro, Outdoor Camera Pro 3, and Doorbell Camera Pro 2
  • When choosing Vivint Playback DVR, you get access to extras like indoor camera sound detection and enhanced video doorbell chimes  

The 10 days of 24-hour recording are made possible through Vivint’s advanced firmware and video-compression methods. You get the on-premises storage you want, without having to buy another piece of hardware.

Vivint leads the way in smart home surveillance

Built-in storage and continuous recording are further proof of Vivint’s leadership in the smart home industry. Imagine enjoying access to 24-hour footage and creating clips to share with family or the authorities straight from your phone. It’s possible with Vivint, but that’s not all. 

Families prefer Vivint cameras for the following reasons:

  • Smart Deter. Get cameras that actively discourage theft. If a stranger comes too close, an audible alarm and red LED light ring will trigger.
  • Spotlight Pro. You can equip your exterior camera with a brilliant spotlight that actively follows intruders. Customize with different emergency light displays or adapt it to illuminate your property.
  • RADAR functionality. The new Outdoor Camera Pro Gen 3 uses RADAR to pinpoint trespassers on your property and their proximity to your vehicles and home.
  • Impressive zoom. You can take a closer look without compromising the image quality. Vivint’s outdoor camera with a high-resolution sensor supports 5.3x digital zoom.
