I purchased Brinks Home Complete with Video, which includes the Brinks Home Touch, a SkyBell Slim Line Video Doorbell, a
glass break detector, and a cellular communicator. Installation is DIY, although you’ll have some help over the phone, and professional monitoring is not required!However, if you do choose professional monitoring, Brinks only offers
binding three year contracts, a definite drawback. On a more positive note, Brinks has a 4. 1 Google rating and excellent customer support reviews. To control and monitor your system, you’ll use the Alarm. com app, which has ratings of 4. 4 on both the Apple and Google Play stores. A fine option all around. Hi Caytlin, I’m sorry to hear that you’ve been burglarized!If you’re looking to self monitor, SimpliSafe is not a good choice as you won’t be able to livestream footage, receive notifications, or control your system remotely. Since your Internet connection isn’t great you should definitely look for a system with cellular or landline backup. I’d look into abode.

But now, with the new system, most of these controls are accessible on the keypad too, which is nice. I’ve been using a Canary since their kickstart beginning; I started with one All in One unit mostly because my hard wired home security system’s temperature monitor had been replaced a couple of times and still gave untimely and weird reports. I also wanted to see what was actually going on and found it invaluable when our house sat vacant for a year while my wife was in medical treatment in another city. After my wife recovered we downsized into a
small condo and now rely on two Canary All in One’s and a Ring Doorbell for our entire security there. The units were so inexpensive on Amazon compared to my first All in One, I bought three more All in One’s and a Flex to cover the front and rear entrances to my townhouse, garage, and driveway outside. I no
longer have to wonder if the heat is working when we are away, if I left the garage door up, if the contents of the garage are about to freeze, did a delivery man leave a package on my porch, or if an unauthorized entry is taking place.

Sound captured is a bit muffled, but certainly audible, though the camera does not currently support two way audio. Night vision footage is clear and motion detection sensitivity can be adjusted in the app. Motion detection is based on heat signature so the camera can discern the difference between, say, a spinning fan, a small dog, and an actual moving person who's breaking in to your home. Recently added, Alexa voice control lets you arm your system or check on its status on Amazon Echo devices. Enabling the SimpliSafe Home Control skill in the Alexa app is simple, and commands like "Alexa, tell SimpliSafe I'm leaving" to arm the system in Away mode, "Alexa, tell SimpliSafe good night" to arm the system in Home mode, and "Alexa, ask SimpliSafe if my home is secure" to get system status worked well in testing. There was little lag between the voice command and the base station announcing status or changes in system modes. The Alexa integration only
works with the new SimpliSafe hardware, and the system can't be disarmed via voice for obvious reasons. With the monthly Interactive Plan, you can use SimpliSafe's Online Dashboard or mobile app to control the system, including arming and disarming it. The Dashboard also lets you view your System Event Log, change your PIN, assign up to four guest PINs, and choose an optional
Duress PIN, to use when an intruder is coercing you to disable the alarm. Enter it, and the alarm will stop sounding, but SimpliSafe will immediately send the police. You can also tweak settings like siren volume, entry and exit delay time, and manage and rename sensors in the Dashboard.
