Needs Work – eyeCam Review

Nice program, but it's not ready for prime time. User interface has very poor response, program locks up before web cameras are installed, and SAVE, CANCEL buttons don't work. The different webcam selections (you can see in the screen shots) are not defined. For example, how does one know the difference between Dlink-1 and Dlink-5? Performance is good on a LAN, but over a cell network funny things happen and images are erased and reload started before they even finish loading. Using a VPN over WAN seems to help. Program has crashed several times. There are no instructions, so you're on your own to figure it out. The host website doesn't look like it's being maintained. Last update was April 24th - just after eyeCam was published. I saw the "Save your money" posts and decided to ignore them in favor of the 5 star posts. Now I wish I had paid more attention to them. I really wish it was possible to try these things before putting out cash. I am using eyeCam with a D-Link DCS-900 and DCS-5220. I can get by (hence two stars instead of one), but I am still looking for something else.
