Customer Success Coordinator Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 8/1/2024 "Opportunity to link several cameras" 4.5/5 What do you like best about iSpy? iSpy is free and is an open-source system, it is relatively cheaper in terms of budget for home protection. It’s possible to control multiple cameras and watch the video stream in real-time on my PC. This is very useful in cases where there is activity in my property that I have not anticipated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about iSpy? iSpy has some fault of the features of a mobile app, but they are not quite basic indeed. The free app does not allow users to have multiple cameras on at once or zoom in on an area, but it only lets the user watch the feed from a single camera. This disjointed approach makes it difficult to track my home security system from any location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is iSpy solving and how is that benefiting you? iSpy is a good option for those people like myself who are in search of an opportunity to create a primitive home safety system without spending lots of money. The ability to monitor live feeds is helpful as well as the motion alert feature makes me feel secure knowing I have an eye on things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
