    ICatcher for PC's, SecuritySpy for OSX/Macs

    I ran iCatcher on my PC for a couple of years - good bit of software/well supported - and scalable. They're knowledgeable and give out good advice based upon your requirements.

    CCTV Software & CCTV Cameras - i-Catcher Webcam & CCTV Software with analytics & motion detection

    However I now only run OSX/Macs - so use SecuritySpy - again a great bit of kit - with Ben the software developer being really responsive to queries etc

    SecuritySpy

    As somebody else has said - you have to have stupid signs saying that CCTV is in place. But my neighbour was more than happy when I asked about putting a camera at the back of the house - as it covers part of his garden - so suggest you check with neighbours 1st.

    Remeber your legal requirement to put up silly stickers warning people that they will be recorded if they burgle you. Or maybe that's only if you're filming outside your property.

    If its to record the baby sitter flick'n the bean - try here

    If it's Swann kit and includes a monitor and reasonable HDD then it looks like a good deal.

    Swann - Advanced Security Made Easy

    Anyone used them?

    Complete kit; monitor, recorder, exterior cameras (4 IIRC) etc for about £600.
    The one I saw in PC World was £280 for the same.
