What security camera system is best?

[Roseann Koefoed]

I just purchased 24 units (three identical 8-unit buildings) that share a parking lot.  I've been at the property a lot in the last couple of weeks, and tenants are telling me that a group of teenagers will bust through the common entry doors and steal bikes and things in the hallway.  The evidence is there because the door frames and jambs are all busted.

I'd like to setup security cameras at the entry doors and also covering the parking lot.  I plan to get wi-fi in each building.  And I would also pay for the cameras to be wired in.

Let me know what security cameras or systems you recommend.  I want something that would make facial recognition easy.  I've heard Simply Safe advertise a lot on BP.  Would be curious to hear what people think of them.
