I had several questions before I bought the camera (my first from Use-IP) and each email was answered quickly and professionally, with no hint from them that I was being a pain. The one small technical issue I had after I received the camera (caused my me not reading the information closely enough) was quickly resolved by them too. So, with competitive product pricing with no hidden extras and good support, I won't hesitate to do business with Use-IP again.

Use-IP are a remarkable firm: there are one or two people who really know what they are talking about and speedily produce answers to lead one in the right direction. I had chosen a CCTV camera but asked first if it was Ok with a Mac (most cameras are not very Mac friendly). I was told that the one I had chosen was not Mac-friendly and recommended another that was, albeit a tad over £100 extra, but then that is Mac for you: Quality but it costs! I ordered it plus a Power-over-Ethernet box to deliver power to the camera. The camera and PoE box arrived within two days which was impressive. I rapidly realised that I had not ordered enough as I needed some means of supplying ethernet to the camera. Here I thought the Use-IP options were expensive as I tried first to get a HomePlug to link into the IP over the mains that I already have. But other people were just as expensive though while thrashing around I found a small TP-Link "Extender" which would receive WiFi signal and provide same to an Ethernet socket, so bought that through the dreaded Amazon. So to getting it all working. I had one or two early problems which Use-IP helped me through. But there were two big problems. First getting the Link Extender to work but this I did manage to solve. Second getting the camera to work with Motion detection. The problem was that it was very difficult to direct the motion detected video to my NAS box. There is no means of doing this on the proffered program from the Camera maker. The camera does have a browser facility which does work with the Mac but the Storage options don't, though I did find some file links I could set to the NAS. The only way I managed to get the thing working was because I had Synology NAS servers and these have their own camera management program which works with the Hikvision camera I had bought. Currently I have the camera working well and some motion detected events being stored on the Synology NAS. I am working on viewing these files but have not found a reliable set of instructions yet to proffer to my wife who wanted the camera to see which four or two legged monster was attacking her goldfish! I have not yet been able to formulate a clear enough question to give to Use-IP or Hikvision or Synology. All this takes time, the fortunate thing being that retirement gives quite a lot of that. Am I satisfied with Use-IP? A positive definite Maybe.

Easy to navigate web site with plenty of detail on its products. Backed up by lots of advice on youtube and use-IP forums... which helped me make an informed choice of the most appropriate camera for my location, purpose and wallet. Free and fast delivery rounded off a good experience buying from use-IP.

Good pre-sales support and competitive pricing. Purchase and delivery were very straightforward. Pretty much plug and play kit, didn't take much configuration although there are numerous features that I've yet to play about with to customise it further. A little disappointed that there are some features or aspects of set up that seem only to be available when connected up to a monitor rather than configurable via the network. App is easy to use and covers the basics for remote viewing, including being able to take instant photos or videos. Good quality images via all apps. I did have an issue at installation whereby the HDD was no longer recognised and I couldn't get it to come back on. However, the following day when I tried again it was all working again and hasn't had a problem since.

Super fast delivery. Any questions I have had have been answered. I have phoned and emailed and always get an answer. They have a forum but there are a good few posts not answered so looks like support here is less. The HikVision camera I bought is top notch, a little fiddly setting up with no NVR but stick with it if you are new, it takes time for all the information to sink in and play around. Also bought a TP-Link POE switch for the camera, again top notch. I would recommend USE-IP to anyone given the experience I have had with them so far :)
