Design: 9.0 / 10 Small and intuitive design. Excellent for surveillance.
Image Quality: 9.0 / 10 Outstanding image quality via wireless or ethernet connectivity.
Easy of Use: 9.0 / 10 Extremely simple to connect to your intranet. In less than 5 minutes I was watching video.
Connectivity: 9.0 / 10 The ethernet was truly a plug-and-play setup with my Windows XP computer. The wireless setup took a little extra time but that was expected considering my home network configuration.
Other Features: 9.0 / 10 For the price this camera is by far the Best on the Market considering Wireless and Audio support.
Strengths Excellent Price for the Quality in return. Extremely simple to setup and the design makes it very easy to place anywhere.
Video and Audio quality surpassed my initial expectations. It can pickup sound and conversations even as far as 30-40 feet away. The One Camera Software which comes with the camera is sufficient and the IE Active X Control for Browser support is excellent for monitoring as well.
Weaknesses For the price there really isn't any weaknesses.
Summary I researched for atleast 2 weeks looking for an IP Networked Camera for surveillance that was under $300. I couldn't be happier with my choice of the Axis 207W Camera. It was an absolute snap to get it up and running right out of the box. Granted I've significant computer networking experience but the directions are clear and easy to follow for anyone, in my opinion.
Again, for the price this is by far an outstanding IP Network Camera and I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a simple solution to monitor your home or business internally or externally from the internet.
