In short you can monitor your whole house using this service by home camera.
Once you have setup your camera, you can view it from anywhere in the world.
In our opinion, the USP of the product lies in its simplicity, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to configure your camera and its easy to use from there onwards too. The service is thoroughly useful for all and one can imagine everyone from small businesses to home owners using it.
Also for current beta testers the basic service will remain free, and credits are pretty cheap too. All payments can be easily made via Paypal.

Last but not the least i would say, i will definitely use this service whenever i go out of house. Its a great boon to your home’s security. God forbid, even if your home is robbed while you were away, if you had recorded the video, you can give it to law enforcement agencies who can then easily track the thieves.

For our latest Homeshop18 review, click here !
After the Futurebazaar reviews, Indiatimes shopping reviews (:P) , we are back with another online portal to shop with. The newly launched Homeshop18 shopping portal owned by the CNBC TV18 group. It all began with my dad being an avid user of CNBC’s portfolio manager. One day while he was logged in, he got a message that he has been given a Rs.100 voucher on Homeshop18.
I told him, its free money, lets spend it and it will also tell us more about the shopping procedures on Homeshop18 and also their level of service and goods quality. So i ordered some stuff, pretty close to Rs.100, didnt want to spend too much from my own pocket and be stuck with something not worthwhile.
So i bought the stuff, i got the delivery within 3 days from my order. But i was shocked to see the huge difference in advertised goods and goods sent to me. I had opted for the free gift wrap but that too was missing. Also missing was a part of the product (a greeting card) advertised. So it really wasnt pleasant.
I wrote to Homeshop 18 about the missing card, and here are their replies, notice that they didnt immediately offer to send the card, only when insisted did they send it.
Their 1st Reply

Warm regards,

On September 1 i told them to send me the card, they said that they will tell the vendor to do the same. By september 7 i was all out of patience and told them it seems their vendor doesnt care about what he advertises and what he sells.
Hi,
Apparently the vendor doesn’t care about what he promises and what he doesn’t, i am yet to get the card for the said order. Shows the level of commitment of the vendor towards his customers.
Thanks
___________
Its then that they told me that they would expedite the process.
Dear _______,
Please note we have reminded the vendor to expedite the same.We shall get this closed at the earliest.
Warm regards,
Customer Care
HomeShop18
And i got a nice greeting card about 2 days later.
So in the end, i was satisfied, but the initial lack of response left a bad taste in the mouth, lets see if i see a good deal there again, i might just spend some money and check their service again.
