Highly recommended company to deal with. Given advice on suitable system prior to purchase. Had a few problems setting up nvr etc but was quickly resolved by Dan there tech adviser. Optiva NVR & cameras purchased, very pleased with the system, works great with the Easy viewer app and relatively easy to set up. Refreshing to be able to easily speak with a knowledge human unlike many companies out there. Thanks to all, great company Glen Boyce

Really disappointed to find out I had been sold a legacy product which is only compatible with Internet Explorer despite the Hikvision website saying otherwise. The camera otherwise is great, just the fact I am going to have to maintain a Legacy windows install (so we can keep IE working) or install the iVMS software is really disappointing. "The user manual on the Hikvision website is out of date and the old plugins for other browsers no longer work, so as discussed on the phone you will either need to use IE or iVMS-4200" Had I known this at the time I would never have purchased it!!! - Buyer beware and don't trust the Hikvision documents!

A great range of products at a decent price. Having brought CCTV equipment before from use-IP I know that their after sales and support is great, with knowledgeable staff willing to help and an online forum where questions can be asked and answered. I will definitely be using them again.

I highly recommend use-IP to anyone planning a cctv installation. I found the use-IP, YouTube videos & online forum a great resource for information during my cctv research. I called use-IP and spoke to Gilly who answered all of my questions and gave me some great advice. She asked me to email in some pictures of my house and confirmed the suitability of my intended camera locations. I placed the order and the items were quickly dispatched and delivered to my home. This weekend, with the help of the use-IP ‘Mega thread’ I have finished the installation of my Hikvision cctv equipment and got the system up and running. I am very pleased with the results so far and just need to fine tune the settings and recording schedule. The picture quality is great both night and day and the IR recording in the dark is really quite impressive. Thanks to the team at use-IP for the excellent customer service and reassuring offer of support if I need in the future.

The Hikvision DS-2CD2385G1 camera I purchased form use-IP is brilliant, it has a very good picture day and night compared to my old Mobotix camera from 2009 and the software interface is pretty good as well. The motion detection settings are a bit tricky to finesse, but otherwise all ok. Brilliant service from use-IP, I had a few questions before I purchased, which Gilly answered straight away and the next day delivery was perfect, the camera even had the neatest double layer bubble wrapping (courtesy of Sandra I believe) that I have ever seen! Thanks.

I am new to IP security cameras and chose Use-IP due after discussing my requirements using the web chat function. I got helpful advise which both helped me to choose some super equipment and also aided me with set-up.

Excellent service. I asked for advice from the Use-IP team who guided me to the camera I bought. The HikVision camera I purchased was in stock for immediate shipping. The camera itself was great - very good images, and setup was simple. THe advice I was given was spot on. Thoroughly recommend Use-IP.

From my first experience of use-IP Ltd. I can see why the claim to be the UK's leading IP camera store is fully justified. A comprehensive web site with extensive navigation and search capabilities to find just the product I was looking for. Detailed specs and user documentation all available. Once logged into the site, all product pricing is given with no price on application pitfalls. I cannot fault customer service. I was emailed within a few days when an out of stock camera model was available again. Most if not all on-line suppliers ask for a customer satisfaction survey. Too often the service is not that brilliant and I rarely reply. However in this case I would not hesitate to buy again or recommend them.

Site de confiance sur lequel je commande mes caméras Vivotek depuis plus de 5 ans. Produits de qualité à prix très intéressants. Equipe sérieuse, serviable et très aimable. Livraison ultra rapide, même pour un produit difficile à trouver (dernière acquisition VC8101, 2 semaines au lieu des 4-5 initialement prévues). Un grand MERCI !

I love use-IP! I love my new IP based camera system. Since my NVR was rack mountable, I went ahead and bought the brackets recently too. use-IP has a vast amount of details on their products. There are video tutorials which really help when you are trying to get your mind around some of the technical bits. I also find their forums handy, which has help me resolve many queries I’ve had so far!

If there was a “perfect” on the rating selection, i would have used it. Absolutely brilliant. Buying journey started with an online chat with Daniel, who was absolutely on the ball. He really helped me out and provided links to the various bits n pieces i needed and then i ordered. I also asked for a Saturday delivery and it was a good way through a Friday. Saturday came and everything landed. Absolutely faultless. Seriously. A week later (today) i had the kit fitted to the house, and, well, wow! Im using HikVision kit and its blooming brilliant. Even at night. Blown away. My partner and i had a peep into the cctv from our phones whilst at the pub and there it was, i know, sad lol. Its brilliant. Great product from a great company. Many thanks!

Recently bought two Hikvision DS-2CD2386G1 8Mp cameras for our new build house in rural Scotland. The camera is the 4mm focal length version and the image quality is nothing short of fantastic and easily manages to deliver full motion video. It is very easy to install, especially using PoE from the LAN switch. The only real issue is finding enough space in the wall behind the camera for the captive connecting cable with it's in-line waterproof LAN connector. The iVMS-4200 software that comes with the camera is good but a little challenging to configure correctly; I still haven't been able to successfully trigger a recording on motion detection, but will try again. Unfortunately my go-to software (iSpy) does not understand H.265 directly and is unstable if I use VLC as an adapter, so I will have to persist with iVMS4200.

I have been interested in installing a CCTV system at home for some time. I am an electrical engineer who now works in a datacentre environment as an Advanced Technical Support Engineer, so I have a good understanding of the technology. I have also installed some systems as an electrician with the older BNC camera connection technology. There are many manufacturers and suppliers of systems available for browsing on the internet. Some good and some not so good. I have spent along time trying to establish the best value for money with the best quality and performance. Use-IP have been a fabulous help in both selection and technical support. The team obviously know their subject. The system I have installed consists of an 8 port Hikvision NVR and cameras. The quality of the Hikvision cameras has impressed me. The Turret 4mm cameras give a fabulous image for the home. Use-IP have offered a superb quality of technical support. I’m sure as I go deeper into the NVR setup I shall be relying on their expertise times in the future. Thanks for your help to date. Regards, Rich S (Shropshire)
