What is your favorite home security system? Nest? Ring? Good old fashioned ADT? Looking to install it for our new (old) house in the bay area. #housing #sanfrancisco
Buy two systems, don’t rely on a single vendor. We have ADT and Arlo.
Can you say more about why two vendors? Do you have them cover different parts of the house or do they overlap?
While ADT for example does have some camera support, it’s clear they just bought some company and patched it on to their existing home monitoring product. It doesn’t integrate well, and it shows. Basically we wanted a best-of-breed for both monitoring and cameras, and that’s not the same company.
Simplisafe. Cost effective and efficient
Vivint
Ring does a good job but the cameras suck. Run a cat6 and get yourself PoE camera system with Nvr
How's nest?
Wyze - dirt cheap and offers virtually the same functionality as the more expensive ones
not adt
Ring - with good Alexa and echo show integration
Vivint is an all around best, security, automation, monitoring. Plus lifetime warranty and more. My mother uncle sister and myself have it
Ring is working great for me so far. Don’t know about ADT but my rule is don’t buy anything “consumer” from Google. They suck at it.
