    Let's talk about the pros first. 1. Easy Installation 2. Easy Setup 3. They searched for you if a permit it required. 4. Long battery life. 5. Monitoring fee Con's: 1. No Dome Siren with any of the bundles. 2. No Glass break sensor. 3. Once some settings are set on the keypad, you have to reset the keypad to factory to gain factory options again. Overall a great DIY system that is easy to use.

      Hi neighbor, using the Alexa Guard feature, you can connect your Amazon Echo device to your Ring Alarm and detect the sounds of a smoke alarm, CO alarm, or glass breaking. Alexa will then notify you about the event. Best, The Ring Team Ring

    After some car break-ins at our apartment, we decided to purchase a Ring security system. We opted to utilize the "self-monitoring" but it's given us peace of mind when we go to work or to run errands, etc. Real time alerts keep you informed as to any door openings or sensed movement from inside your home. The app is easy to navigate, and the set-up was pretty easy too. Highly recommend!

    I bought this for my daughter who just bought a house by herself. I wanted to be sure she would be safe alone and I didn't want her to move back in my home. She installed this easily herself. She did need tech support for one of the cameras and they helped her with no problem. She can see everything on her phone when the alarm goes off (cat issue). This does the job and makes her feel safe.

    This is a great system. I was able to purchase this whole system for what I pay in 3.5 months to a well known security company, I was worried about installing it, but it was super easy with a support line that actually answered right away. Love you can add more sensors/cameras as you want. App is super easy to use as well.
