the tool is free, open-source, well documented, and has an intuitive UI for operating, but there is nothing special about it, it's just a good, lightweight, and free solution for camera management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iSpy?

the interface is ugly, I mean it is doing its job, but they could add some brighter colors instead of what we have now Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about iSpy?

iSpy is a fantastic monitoring tool that integrates easily with the majority of software packages. For those who understand the fundamentals of how a monitoring tool operates, it is simple to use. Although it took some time, iSpy's integration with our current environment turned out nicely. This lightweight tool makes tracking and app monitoring more effective. An excellent tool for server management and analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iSpy?

A system administrator is required to properly set up it. The absence of migration tools might make switching from one system to another challenging. These restrictions are typical of an open-source solution, though. It hardly contains any visuals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about iSpy?

iSpy is free and is an open-source system, it is relatively cheaper in terms of budget for home protection. It’s possible to control multiple cameras and watch the video stream in real-time on my PC. This is very useful in cases where there is activity in my property that I have not anticipated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iSpy?

iSpy has some fault of the features of a mobile app, but they are not quite basic indeed. The free app does not allow users to have multiple cameras on at once or zoom in on an area, but it only lets the user watch the feed from a single camera. This disjointed approach makes it difficult to track my home security system from any location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about iSpy?

I found iSpy to provide a significant number of features such as motion detection, recording options, and the ability to monitor through my computer. In setting up the product, simple monitoring was quite easy and the interface is relatively easy to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iSpy?

The official app is awkward and buggy, that freezes and loses connection often. Third-party readers are slightly better when it comes to convenience but are usually less customized, carry some security risks with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about iSpy?

I appreciate how they've found a balance between free and paid services. The free service is feature rich and highly customizable, and never feels absurdly limited. At the same time, you really feel like you get your value from the paid services.

It's powerful and reliable and basic use is pretty straight forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iSpy?

I'll take features over usability any day, but the back end is pretty complicated. There's a host of resources to find help, but it could be more intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
