    Love how this goes right along with the ring cameras. Very user friendly, you can tell Alexa to arm and disarm ring, which is a great feature for when you’re carrying groceries in!

    This alarm has worked better then I thought it would, it alerts me whenever its armed or disarmed. If a door is opened or motion is sensed. And has cellular backup should you lose WiFi.

    I live in a brick house and ran into several connectivity issues. I recommend additional range extenders for a multi-level home.

    Easy to set up and install. The touch pad is rechargeable so it does not require an electrician to come in and hardwire the system. Easy to install and manage directly to your phone.

    I switch home security systems and I don't regret it. Despite the controversy with Ring, they make great products and I would recommend the Ring alarm system.

    Ring is one of the best home security systems on the market. If you want a system with out the high monthly fee for service it's worth it.

    We’ve only had the Ring Security for a few weeks, but so far it is a great system. We accidentally set it off & the monitoring system called immediately.

    I bought this a couple of month ago. It works fine but the sensor doesn’t work sometimes like it doesn’t trigger the alarm when it senses movement sometimes and I’ve had it go off for no reason at times to.

    Love the connectivity with the ring doorbells i already had as well as the alexa compatibility. Sometimes there is a lag in the connection between the sensors and the keypads but not enough to cause any issues.

    Changed from company whose yearly charge was the cost of this entire system but did not include video monitoring. More comfortable with this system.
