As advertised

Does what it should, no major problems encountered so far. I have trouble connecting to it sometimes but probably more to do with cell service than the cam.

Whole new level of secure

Love my 360 - can see my entire building from 1 camera & I know it cannot be defeated by cutting my power or internet - the ultimate security cam

Love it so far

Only two complaints. One is that live streaming should be allowed much more than 5 times on the basic subscription. Bigger request is that is should be integrated with the main Tactacam app. Having to use two different apps - one for all my Tactacams and another for my Defend - is not a good solution. All cameras should be accessible from ONE app.

Why a separate app?

I bought this hoping to add it to my reveal app along with my hunting cameras but it requires the defend app. You can add the reveals to the defend app but not for the same prices as you can the reveal app. It may not be a big deal to many but when I have a dozen cameras, including the original defend, it gets costly. My reveal app with my newer cams have most all the same features as the 360 so I'm not sure why it can't be implemented into one app for a much better user experience.

Must have separate App from Reveal

I purchased the new 360 defend, mounted and setting up was not aware it requires separate app and subscription as my other cameras or would not have went that route.

Gettin' There. . . . .

Commented previously about having to use limited monthly live camera shots (based on plan type) to help properly set-up camera view. After further use, struggling to get used to the Defender app use when compared to Tactacam. Really miss having a numeric icon pop-up next to the app icon to let you know that new pics have been taken.

Love this camera

This camera is incredible, I love that you can control it from your phone. Zoom in and out is also a very nice option. I definitely want another one!

Good not great

Camera has good connectivity, responsive to live picture. Needs to pan up higher, more info on photo like trail cameras. Photo cell stays charged. Motion isn’t very sensitive at times.

Remote security

Good camera. I wish the Reveal app controlled the pan, tilt features. I have a mix of Reveal and Defend Security cams for remote land security and animal watching. I routinely request HD pictures and videos but the Defend app doesn't act the same as Reveal.

Doing its job

I’m using the camera in a trial area before i take it to the country. Working well but figuring it out another matter, this was true even with the Reveal cameras I’ve been using. I ended up reading reviews to figure stuff out. Even looking at the online manual does not explain things to enough detail.

Use of my reveal next to the new 360

At this time I’m using both side by side, they will be in different locations this summer. They both work very well, but I will say the reveal picks up the neighbors dog much more frequently than the 360. Overall I’m happy with both. :+1:

Works Like A Champ

We bought the Defend 360 for monitoring the traffic at our front gate. Our gate is about a 1/4 mile from the house and we have had a few instances of vandalism. The Defend 360 with its cellular connection works perfectly - we are notified immediately when someone approaches the gate. With live view we can watch if the individual is just a normal delivery are something else. If you have a remote location that needs surveillance then the Defend 360 is for you.

Not happy with the location

Not happy with the location of the power button. Can’t get to it when mounted. Otherwise I like it a lot.

No complaints

Best cellular camera I’ve ever owned. I use it to monitor progress and ingress/egress on my new construction home site in a more remote location. I can live stream the camera anytime I see activity on site and move the camera around remotely with the 360 feature. I’ve never had any cellular interruptions or anything that would cause the camera to not function as it’s supposed too. I plan to buy another one as soon as construction is finished to add to my home security. 10/10

Great all around security camera

Great all around security camera, easy to setup, nice mobile app, and a breeze to install.

It's ok.

It's a okay camera. Would I buy another NO. It's not half as good as my other one that I have out. You ask for a review so I gave you one.

Not Great

Takes motion pictures no problem, but live feed doesn’t work near as well as the older defend model. Very slow to load and the first 30 seconds or so is just a black screen.

Works great

Set it up by the front gate. Clear images. My only issue is I wish the trigger speed was a tad faster but really it’s fine. Solar panel keeps it fully charged.

Go for the extended service plan.

Would Recommend

Exactly as described. Great photos day or night. The ability to scan at least 180 degrees from the camera front. All photos show up.on your phone where they can be saved or forwarded to neighbors/ police etc. The details in the photos are amazing.
