    I found the Canary easy to install and easy and wonderful to use. It is incredibly easy to access on the telephone. The night vision camera is very bright and has a high degree of detail. This item is superb.

    I bought the Canary for my daughter after she moved. She is able to keep an eye on her house and dog during the day. She feels more comfortable coming home at night with the Canary keeping an eye on things.

    This camera is amazing. Great for living room when I am not in town. Amazing wide angle. The app could use a little more help, but the device it self is really simple and easy to use.

    This thing is absolutely terrible and does nothing. The only thing is has going for it is a nice camera with night vision for a reasonable price. It only snaps a video and sends it to your phone when it's armed and there's motion, but doesn't auto-arm based on any criteria and doesn't have any connections with IFTTT. It also costs an upgraded membership just to use the two-way radio and doesn't auto-sound the siren when it's armed and senses motion. Save your money for the release of Angee, you'll be glad you did!

    This device is great for home surveillance when combines with the Premium Service because you can use the microphone and speaker feature on the device.

    Very useful for keeping track of what’s going on at home while you are away - kids, pets, general. The speech thing does not work well at all though.

    My second! Gives me another view for security, plus I use it to watch the pups... love that I can sound an alarm, record issues of people coming to our door, and call for emergency service when needed!

    I like that I can remote in. It alerts me of visitors when I am not there (family with access). Plus I can sound siren and make emergency call if visitor is not authorized.

    The small camera and capability to monitor air quality, sounds, sound an alarm is a nice touch. The longest time was having the firmware update when installing... it took 3 tries, but simple after that.

    Use this to monitor my 98 year old mothers home and her general activities during the day. Timestamps permit a look at her routine and deviations from it.

    Wouldn't connect to my router. Spent an hour on the phone with tech support who constantly told me how inferior the product was. WTF? He transferred me to a supervisor who then disconnected me. Needless to say, I returned it.

    Good for people without pets

    If you have pets, you'll just get way too many motion detection alerts. And there's no setting for automatic alarm at night... in other words, if there is an intruder, you won't know until you get the notification until you get the alert - assuming it's a legit motion detection.
