    This security system I was hesitant to buy as I am not good at installing things. I always get help from handyman for these type of things. Because of COVID, I had to do myself. It was very easy to put together and easy instructions to follow. I am buying more sensors for other windows and motion sensors. Great alarm.

    If you have a ring door bell or not, this is worth a buy. With ring having a $3/device or $10 for unlimited devices Per month, or 30/100 yr..., including ring doorbell, indoor cameras, outdoor cameras, smoke/co2 detector, glass break, and extra sensors, this is a must buy. Much cheaper than SimpliSafe per month.

    This alarm system is easy to setup. It does all the same things a regular alarm system from a big company could do, without all the wires running through your home. There is a fee to have full service monitoring, but that’s normal. It don’t need the full monitoring service though, we’re you can monitor yourself.

    If you want a security system to monitor your home professionally with out paying an arm and a leg then this is the way to go. Also the Ring security system can link to other Ring Products so let’s say your Arleen goes off you can have it link to where your Ring camera will automatically turn on and record the intruders. Great product

    Installation and setup was very easy. They equipment is well made and engineered. The keypads can run off their own rechargeable batter power which I have yet the need to recharge going on 4 months now. This makes placement of the keypads simple and clean looking if you want to wall mount and don’t have a plug or want to see a plug cord.

    After doing some research I decided to purchase the Ring home security. I’ve had it for a month and it’s been great. Setting it up was simple and easy. Just Follow the step by step instructions. The app is easy and simple to navigate! The professional monitoring service is efficient at a low cost compared to other competitors out there.

    This is a great security system. I already had a Ring camera and paid $3 a month for the service, with the addition of this plus another set of door chimes I only pay $10 for service. I highly recommend it if you are looking to get a security system that is effective, can build upon, and easy to set up.

    Bought this after I moved into my new place after we got threatened by a neighbor. Since buying this system I feel safer at home knowing that if anything happens it will be taken care of by professionals. The system is easy to setup and uses a wifi connection to stay in sync with each other. Customer service is also very helpful.

    Simple to set up and use. The App is very intuitive . Everything is wireless so no need to pull wires or punch holes in your walls. You do not need a subscription and the Ring app will alert you if there has been a breach. However, the best part is that the Protect Plan (to alert police of a breach) is only $10/month!

    I bought this to keep an eye on my second home and it is perfect. The camera quality is as good as any major service provider. It is very easy to install. Make sure you do two way authenticate to a avoid anyone hacking into it . I have since decided to install these in a couple of my businesses as well.

    Set up was easy for my granddaughter but not for me. Got it on sale and the monthly cost is great, Better if you pay a year in advance, Always worked for the six months we have had it. Added a door bell since and now thinking a camera. Told my sister about it and now they have it too.
