Cameras are an essential element of your home’s security. To ensure you get the best system for your household, you need to figure out how you would like your system to store video. Some Spokane homeowners are fine with event-based clips saved in the cloud. But if you need more, like round-the-clock continuous recording and on-premises storage, you must explore other alternatives.

If you never want to miss a moment, Vivint Playback DVR is an outstanding option. Learn more about this feature and why it’s a valuable add-on to your Spokane home security system.
