>[Ubiquiti] products tend to be pretty good quality and ease of use for the rock-bottom prices Unfortunately, contrary to their wifi gear, Ubiquiti's cameras are very expensive for what they are - I had some cheap Hikvision cameras that were already a few years old and the image quality was way higher than the G3 Bullet cameras (Hikvision had sharper optics, better dynamic range, better H.264 encode, higher bitrate options, better motion detection). Hopefully some of this will change with Ubiquiti's new G4 Bullet cameras when they're released. The Protect system is also not particularly reliable (I've had occasions where a firmware update to the Protect server has taken out all access via the web UI, the web interface is very prone to totally breaking in a browser even when on the same network - streams stopping, or downloads of clips failing, no API and they use a proprietary and undocumented .ubv container format on disk, so you can't grab the media over SFTP)
