Original post
Hello everyone,

I am currently considering which video door entry system to buy for our single-family house on a hillside.
I find the video feature very useful since our living and dining area is located in the basement, so you don’t have to go upstairs every time the doorbell rings.

There are many versions on the market, and unfortunately, they vary significantly in price.
Do you have any recommendations on which ones to buy?
What do you think about this one?

The Goliath intercom units are from the manufacturer Dahua, as are those from TURM Tech. The Goliaths feature a logo, while the TURMs do not. Otherwise, they are identical.

In the Far East, you can also get intercom systems from Dahua. These are identical in design to the Goliath models and cost only half as much. Of course, you have to be aware that there is no support available if problems arise.
I will be installing the system at my place soon. However, the test setup already worked perfectly.

Not only in the Far East. Dealers are also available locally...

We will most likely use the Wantec Monolith.
The video transmission runs directly over the network and not through the cloud, and is modular, meaning it can be used, for example, with eKey.

I have to agree with you on that. However, they can’t compete with the prices from the Far East.

Are there perhaps any new developments on the market? Has anyone released something new? I still haven't made a final decision...

For the sake of completeness, I’ve now got a Doorbird.
