SimpliSafe - 8pc Outdoor Home Security System - White

This security system was very easy to install and set-up. The dialpad and sensors linked quickly to the base station and work as expected. This is a great system as a starter system for an apartment or small home. There are plenty of accessories to add to the system as your needs grow. I purchased this system on sale and it has been worth it. The camera alone was worth more than the entire system at regular price. Note: You will need to purchase a subscription to view recorded video. This is not a good fit if you want to integrate it into a smart home ecosystem but is definitely well worth it as a standalone security system for your home.

This security system was extremely easy to install. You just do everything off of the app, which was very convenient. It’s easy to armed and unarmed, and I could also do it from the app as well so far no complaints. I love it.

Quite simple and easy to install and configure, Extra cameras connect automatically

I got this for a great deal. And I love the fact that it comes with plenty of accessories in the box and to buy separately but I was looking for something a little different.

This Simplisafe 8 piece outdoor home security system is a great system that is ready to go right out of the box. You get yourself the base station, keypad, 4 entry sensors, an outdoor camera, and a motion sensor. This is a great beginner set in the Simplisafe ecosystem that allows for a starting point. I like the availability offered to expand the accessories if I'd like when I'm ready to grow into the ecosystem further. The Simplisafe app is a fantastic app that guides you through the installation process effortlessly and step by step. I love the simplicity this system offers with the perfect variety of accessories I need to be up and running. I had no issue getting the entry sensors installed. I opted to put an entry sensor on each of the doors in our home that lead to the outside, and they work very well with a chime alerting me that a door is open or left ajar. The motion sensor is placed and mounted on the wall in a high traffic and central location so that it will sense a person's movement with ease. The outdoor camera is placed effectively in view of anyone that may approach so that they'll know they are being recorded and monitored. It's a nice 1080p outdoor camera that offers 2 way communication and can withstand the elements. The base station is a nice elegant pattern shaped much like a vase, so it looks pleasant sitting out on our counter or tabletop. The base station also creates a loud siren of 100dB to alert the intruder and any nearby neighbors that something unusual is taking place. The keypad is convenient and I like that it's wire free, so I can place it anywhere I prefer in my home. Another deterrent to keep intruders away is the outdoor sign that easily shows that your home is secured with Simplisafe, and sometimes that is enough to keep an intruder away. There are cellular connections available for professional monitoring if a power outage was to occur, so that's another piece of mind component. With this particular boxed set I get a 1 month free trial usage of professional monitoring which is a nice added bonus to know that I have access to fast police responses if needed. I can certainly opt to use the Simplisafe system without a monitoring subscription, but it's just an added layer of protection and peace of mind. Overall I like the security system right out of the box and I like the ecosystem that Simplisafe has built and made very user friendly. Protect your home and loved ones with a very easy to use and setup home security system.
