If your current cameras are sufficient for you, then something similar will definitely do for the doorbell.
For you, it's more for playing around and quickly checking. It doesn't have much to do with real surveillance and protection. I think your system is not secured against power outages, nor is there any external backup...
3 days of recording is nothing. If you are on vacation and something happens, the system overwrites after 3 days...
You currently cannot access it from outside? Especially when I'm not at home, I want to be informed if something happens....
Are your cameras on the same local network? It doesn't matter if you access the cameras locally or not. They probably send data home if you don't deny them internet access. If you are also running a DLNA server, your photos and videos probably go over the line as well.
A good system for access is an NVR or NAS (e.g., Synology or QNAP).
Access from outside is easy. Simply use a VPN into the home network and then access it as if you were at home. It's free. In the worst case, you use the VPN function of the Fritzbox. But there are other options as well.
