Hello,
I wanted to ask for 60 IP cameras, what is better ? 1 NVR with 64 channels or 2 NVRs with 32 channels each ? Also can you tell me the pros/cons of each system ? As for the NVR brand, I plan to use Hikvision.
Thank you

Not sure what that will set you back or you will have to get 2 32 channels
And split them nvr1 nvr2
I haven’t seen a hikvision with 64 channel on there web page but I could be wrong
 
At that level other software VMS may make sense.

The incoming bandwidth is one of the most important specs. Be aware sometimes they can only support frame rates as low as 7fps when you push the number of cams and resolution to the max. IPVM.com has done tests on what Hikvision NVRs can actually handle. Worth the membership fee before you buy something this expensive.
