Is the Q-see remote viewing app still available?

Q-See, while going out of business, has discontinued all of their apps and PC software. This affects all customers who relied on remote viewing to keep an eye on their property or business. We offer remote viewing apps and PC software free of charge with the purchase of our security camera recorders.

Are there any problems with the Q-see DVR?

Any help greatly appreciated and hope this could answer some questions for people looking to purchase Q-See equipment. So far cameras are pretty good but this DVR is trash. “The Q-see person said it was tested before shipping” yeah right even though it had a refurb sticker on the back.

What kind of cameras do I need for my Q-see?

There are two types of cameras, IP cameras and HD Coaxial cameras, that may need to be replaced, or if you need additional cameras for your existing Q-See recorder. IP cameras or PoE cameras use Ethernet networking cable to connect to NVR systems.
