Video cameras are a critical part of your home’s protection. To ensure you choose the best system for your household, you need to decide how you would like your system to store video. Some Savannah homeowners are okay with movement-activated clips stored in the cloud. But if you need more, like local storage and 24-7 recording, you must investigate other options.

If you want full coverage, Vivint Playback DVR is an outstanding option. Explore this system and why it’s a worthwhile addition to your Savannah home security system.

What exactly is Vivint Playback DVR?

Vivint Playback DVR is a supplemental solution that provides as much as 10 days of 24-hour recording. It gives you all the video you need and much more. Here are key features:
