I’ve got a Ubiquiti setup with cameras and a doorbell. It isn’t cheap but it’s local and I highly recommend them if you have the budget.
Does that use a cloud? I went to their site one time and thought it had Google trackers.
Whose website doesn't have Google trackers?
I get that plausible and such exist too, but using Google is industry standard unfortunately.
Cloud access is typically if you’re managing equipment at multiple sites. For me everything is accessed and managed locally and the recordings are saved to a local HDD and not uploaded to the cloud.
