This security system seems to have been a great choice. It was simple to set up, and came with enough equipment to get you started. I also purchased two of the smart video cameras, putting one at each doorway. This way I can keep an eye on my house in the country, and not have to worry. The app is pretty intuitive. They seem to be updating it fairly often, which is reassuring, and let me know that there will continue to be advances. I can look around the house on my cameras, controlling them from my phone. It's also neat that you can add more contact sensors, cameras, or even motion detectors. Overall, I am pretty satisfied, and do not regret my purchase.

Very easy setup and install. App isn't the best laid out but easy enough once you learn it.
I have had one problem - can't get app to connect when on 3G connection. Works fine on a newer 4G phone. I have an open ticket with iSmart; engineers are investigating. I suspect the problem is backward compatibility problem with my phone and cell service provider. This might be something to be aware of if you're using an older phone.
iSmart Customer Service has been very good but open a ticket on their web site. Calling just went to Voicemail.
The Best Buy package had the mix of devices I wanted to start with (3 door sensors, 1 Motion, 1 Remote). Packages available elsewhere have a different mix. App currently requires a device that can receive calls and texts (e.g. smartphone and not a tablet).
So far, I am happy with this product as it is doing what I expected (except the lack of 3G connection on my older phone as previously discussed). In my "testing", everything worked as planned. Therefore, I will assume if a bad guy breaks in, it will work the same as testing. Hopefully, I will never find out.
Keep in mind, this is a fairly new product from a fairly new/small company. Both the company and their products are maturing. As long as they continue to enhance the app with better/more functionality and keep rolling out new hardware to add on (e.g. smoke detector, water detector, doorbell camera, glass breakage, home automation, etc) then I will be happy. I have 2 of the new iSmart Spot cameras on the way. Hopefully, I will like these as well as what I have installed so far.

I installed the iSmartAlarm system in about 15 mins. I did have a couple of issues with the motion sensor and the keychain device - as they wouldn't connect or disconnected after first install. But customer service was fast to address the issue, and it was as easy as taking out the battery to reset the device and re-connecting it to the cube. My only drawback is that they do not have yard sign readily available at any retailer. you have to order online and wait for it to ship.

Easy to setup and a simple interface to use. Alarm was rather loud if you're in the same room, but not if you're in the back of the house or outside. There is an additional alarm that you can buy to add to the system, so that helped. I wish the sound for the door sensors were a little louder, but they're not bad at all. Much cheaper than paying ADT and is a good home alarm system.

Setup was super easy. I get notifications when the patio door is opened and this saves me a bit of peace of mind. The charm and notification is not loud enough though. I believe a louder siren or notification on the hub is needed though. They have this as an add-on but I haven't seen it available anywhere.

This system is easy to set up and install, with adhesive pads for each sensor. Works well for an apartment. Some of the sensors that are far from the base station and router are a little twitchy, but this would likely be resolved with a WiFi range extender. Overall, a good system for anyone who wants an alarm without monthly fees, or for someone who doesn't own their home.

This system gives a great peace of mind when I'm away from home. I first purchased the iCamera Keep and it was easy to add to the cube one however once connected to the system it no longer sends alerts that motion or sound was detected. The motion sensor is constantly triggered by my small dog even though it says pets under 30 lbs typically won't activate the sensor. I have to turn off the motion sensor during the day - my option is to move it to a place where the pets are not frequently out and about. I got this system mostly so I could see my son get home from school and feel more secure. That's achieved and the price is right. Wifi connection was spotty at first but I added an extender and that issue was resolved. Wasn't anything to do with the system itself.

The system is straightforward, easy to setup and use.
Perfect for an apartment or small house. There are no monthly fees to pay and you get free alerts if it is triggered including some automated phone calls. I personally like the thinking and idea behind this system!
Buy the camera to remotely check your place.
