I wish I never bought this product. When I first purchased the product there was a free cloud storage option for saving your video clips. There still is a free option but the company has decided to play childish games and make you have to renew your free subscription on a monthly basis in the hopes that you will finally get sick of renewing and purchase a paid cloud storage plan. What a waste of $. Glad I haven't purchased the rest of the cameras that I need for my business and home. I will probably just have to take the loss and discontinue use of this system and get another brand.
