Hi Hugh, thank you so much for your lovely review! We will make sure to pass on your kind words to Echo. We are really happy to hear your system is up and running perfectly again. We are always here if you ever need any help in the future.
Terrible system stay away!
EDIT
They finally responded. Their solution was just keep rebooting the cameras! If you want remote control of the cameras away from the physical site basically do not buy these cameras because you’ll have to physically be with the cameras every 5 mins to reboot them. ABSOLUTE JOKE!
Awful! Stay well away! Customer service does not response on WhatsApp.
If you wish to play back any footage your actually store don’t even bother buying these cameras! You can never play back as the system just drops offline whenever you try and play back!
Trying to perform a simple playback is impossible and takes hours on end to try and gain a 10 second footage!!
STAY WELL AWAY!

Improving Communication When Orders Are Unavailable
Overall, most orders are shipped on time, and compared to one or two years ago, the delivery speed has clearly improved. This development is very positive.
However, the communication regarding unavailable ordered items is still very poor. In several cases, there has been no notification that certain items were unavailable. This lack of information creates uncertainty and makes it difficult to plan accordingly.
It would be very helpful if customers were informed promptly whenever an ordered item is unavailable. Improving communication in such situations would significantly enhance the overall service experience.

We sincerely apologize for the lack of notification regarding unavailable items in your recent orders. You are absolutely right—timely communication is essential for your planning, and we clearly missed the mark here.We are currently reviewing our notification process to ensure customers are informed promptly if an item is out of stock. Your feedback helps us pinpoint exactly where we need to improve next.Thank you for helping us grow.

Title: Poor After-Sales Support and Warranty Handling – Very Disappointed
Title: Poor After-Sales Support and Warranty Handling – Very Disappointed
I ordered an NVR from the ANNKE Official Store on AliExpress (Order No. 3064971926462849). After receiving the unit, I identified a fault where the NVR did not function as it should.
I contacted ANNKE support directly and was advised to raise the issue through the AliExpress platform under warranty. I followed this instruction and contacted the ANNKE Official Store via AliExpress messaging service within the permitted return period.
Unfortunately, following a lack of response by Annke — potentially compounded by the Chinese New Year holiday — no action was taken before the return window expired. As a result, the return period closed without resolution, and I am now left with a defective product that does not perform as it should.
This is particularly disappointing as I have previously purchased several ANNKE cameras and had intended to continue buying from them. However, the after-sales support experience and failure to manage the warranty process properly have significantly undermined my confidence in the brand.
I would strongly recommend that prospective buyers consider how warranty claims are handled before purchasing.

Hi Alastair, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about your experience and sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused. After reviewing the details of your case, it appears that the NVR itself is operating normally and the issue seems to be related to a feature that is unfortunately not supported by this particular model, which may have caused some misunderstanding about its functionality. We would also like to apologise for the delayed response during the Chinese New Year holiday period. Once our team returned from the holiday, our colleague contacted you and tried to provide a possible solution, although we understand it may not have fully met your expectations. We truly value your previous support of ANNKE products and would still very much like the opportunity to assist further. We have just sent you another email regarding your return request and kindly invite you to check your inbox when convenient so we can continue working towards a suitable resolution. Thank you again for your feedback.

Headline: Dangerous Product & Deceptive Seller - Burned 2 HDDs
I bought an Annke NVR from the "ANNKE Official Store" on AliExpress, and it failed within 4 months. Even worse, the defective unit burned two of my brand-new Hard Drives (HDDs). It is a serious hardware hazard.
The seller's support was a joke. They first offered a mocking $5 refund, then promised a new replacement unit that they never sent. They are simply stalling to avoid responsibility.
I have all the chat logs and evidence of the damage. Avoid this store at all costs. They sell dangerous hardware and do not stand behind their promises.
