Don’t buy if you don’t want to pay subscription
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this on sale I paid around $58 plus my $70 rewards. It would go back to store if I didn’t get it that cheap. You have to subscribe to be able to get a notification on your phone if someone opens your door. You could buy something else that does the job without paying for subscription.

Fast Protect Monitoring enables unlimited recordings in the cloud, as well as 24/7 dispatch with cellular backup. We can get you set up with 30 days free so you can try our full offerings, risk-free!

Buyer beware
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This system has a bug when setting up on the iphone. The app on the phone continues to crash during set up. Tech support took 3 hours to help me get the system set up. The only way to get around the bug was to purchase the monthly monitoring for #30 monthly. Also, with SimplySafe, unless you pay $15 monthly you can't get text notifications in the event of an alarm. I recommend choosing another system.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Michelle
Posted .So sorry to hear that you had trouble with getting set up. It sounds like there was an issue with your account, and we're glad our Support team was able to get it resolved. You are right that SMS and email notifications are part of our paid monitoring plans. Though if you're happy with Push Notifications through the SimpliSafe app, you can downgrade to Basic App Control instead. We do recommend giving the Fast Protect Monitoring Plan a try with the included free month, so you can see the benefits of all available features!

Awesome Security System
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The SimpliSafe system is incredibly easy to set up, even for someone with limited technical experience. The entire process took me less than an hour, and I was able to do it all using the SimpliSafe app. The app is well-designed and easy to use, and it provides step-by-step instructions for setting up each sensor and the base station. The SimpliSafe Indoor Home Security Kit includes a variety of features that make it a great choice for homeowners of all sizes. The kit includes four entry sensors, two motion detectors, a keypad, and a base station. The entry sensors can be placed on doors and windows to detect unauthorized entry, while the motion detectors can be placed in rooms to detect movement. The keypad can be used to arm and disarm the system, and it can also be used to trigger a panic alarm. SimpliSafe offers a variety of monitoring options, including self-monitoring and professional monitoring. I opted for professional monitoring, which gives me peace of mind knowing that my home is being monitored 24/7 by SimpliSafe's team of experts. If an alarm is triggered, SimpliSafe will dispatch the appropriate emergency responders to my home. I've been using the SimpliSafe Indoor Home Security Kit for several months now, and I've been very impressed with its performance. The system has never false alarmed, and it has always detected unauthorized entry accurately. I'm also very happy with the quality of the SimpliSafe sensors and the base station. They are all well-built and seem to be very durable. Overall, I highly recommend the SimpliSafe Indoor Home Security Kit. It's a great choice for homeowners of all sizes who are looking for a simple, affordable, and reliable security system.

Can NOT go wrong with SimpliSafe awesome
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So have you ever looked back and wished so bad you did not do something ? Well i have. So i signed up for a security setup for my house and should have listened way better than i did because now i'm stuck in a 3 year contract with a security system that i could have easily replaced with this for a ton cheaper. So now i'm paying almost $70 a month for another 2 years of the 3 year contract. But the kicker is this setup is as good if not better than the one i'm paying a monthly fee for. So the SimpleiSafe does have a setup you can pay a monthly fee to use only if you wanted to and there is no contract,you pay month to month. I do not know what the monthly fee is because i don't want to click on it and be paying for two services but even if i did there is no contract. The funny thing is if you do sign up for the month to month service with SimpliSafe it comes with the same exact services im paying for 3 more years for but only month to month no contract. They will call you if an alarm is tripped,they will contact 911 in the event of an emergency. Hook up of the SimpliSafe setup was a breeze. No drilling no running wires i think i had mine up and running in around 1 hour and that's because i was taking my time and im old. All in all i wish i would have done my homework and gone with this setup but did not know it existed tell a few months ago. I tell you once my two more years is up with the other company i will definitely be using SimpliSafe,

Great for peace of mind
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This home security system comes with 4 entry sensors, 2 90-degree motion sensors, base station, and keypad. The entry sensors and motion sensors are attached via glue strips, so get the locations perfect before pulling off the protective strip. These strips can be replaced with 3M command strips. The 4 entry sensors are battery operated with a button battery # DL 2032, the 2 motion sensors have a 3V CR123 battery while the keypad is 4 AA batteries. The base station is electric. Setup is completed by installing the SimpliSafe app and following the directions. After initial installation of the SimpliSafe base station discovery of each device will begin after you remove the battery protector. I suggest that you just slide the back off and remove the battery protector that way. After setting things up you can decide on what monitoring plan you need. The system comes with a free month of pro monitoring. The SimpliSafe indoor system does not come with any cameras. They can be purchased separately, along with security devices. As we use both the front and rear door, I will need to order an additional keypad. While using this system I received notifications quickly on my phone. Once I set up the pet mode, I received fewer notifications. I did not purchase any monitoring from the company and the system works as promised.

SimpliSafe - Indoor Home Security Kit
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I received my SimpliSafe Indoor Home Security Kit 8pc system a couple weeks ago and have been putting it through its paces. Lucky for me, I have become very familiar with the SimpliSafe brand over the last few years as I already have a SimpliSafe system currently installed in my condo - and also they installed a SimpliSafe system in our offices at work. This new 8 piece kit will be installed as an addition to my current setup at home. UNBOXING You’re greeted with a “Let’s Get Started,” page with steps on how to get started. The greeting doesn’t stop there - included are (2) SimpliSafe window decal stickers to display that your home is covered and protected by SimpliSafe. A 1 month free trial card is also included which gets you 30 days of 24/7 Professional Monitoring. Now onto the real unboxing: 1st Box: 2 Motion Sensors, 4 Entry Sensors, Additional Window Stickers, Adhesive Strips, User Docs 2nd Box: Base Station 3rd Box: Keypad 4th Box: Yard Sign Stakes (for the included Yard Sign in the bottom of the main box) SETUP This is where to fun begins for me, however, for new customers, just follow along with the User Manual step by step. First you're instructed to download and install the SimpliSafe app to your phone. It's available on the App Store for iPhone and the Google Play Store for Android devices. Next, you will need to create and setup an account with SimpliSafe. The account is free to setup, the monitoring service is for a fee. However, you do get a free 30-day trial included with this system which you can try out, but be forewarned, that SimpliSafe want to be able to keep you as a customer, so in order to cancel that 30-day trial, you have to call into the to cancel. So after your account is setup and verified via email. Now you're going to start off with setting up the Base Station. Scan the QR Code on the bottom of the Base Station or enter the number on your phone. You will also be prompted to connect the Base Station to your home Wi-Fi network. After getting my Base Station setup, I was then prompted to setup any devices I had. Following the instructions on the app, install the Entry Sensors where you feel you need protection the most. They can be affixed to doors and windows or any other point of entry into your home. Next install the Keypad via the app along with a Master Pin. Install the Motion Sensors following along with the app and you’re set. This process should take 30 minutes or less, but go a your own pace and its okay to double check everything as you go along if you’re new to installing something like this. PROS SimpliSafe is a company that I have come to love over the last 5 years. I had an older SimpliSafe system at the old apartment. Then having installed another system at my office building at work last year and now installing one in my home, I have been used to the ease of installation and the flow of the app. Everything just works. I've never had any issues with any of the sensors, or other devices, that I've installed from SimpliSafe. The Keypad is simple and easy to use. The display on the Keypad kinda reminds of the old BlackBerry Storm type phone I had with T-Mobile back in day where you press the whole screen down to make selections. It's simple to use and you can adjust setting for your keypad and entry sensors on the keypad. You can also check for updates for the keypad and Base Station as well. Now in terms of security, once you have your account setup and depending on what level you choose, SimpliSafe representatives will notify you in case of anything going on at your house. Break-ins, fires, or alarms going on. Now I've tried this in the past and they are quick and on it as soon as they get an alert, they are calling you to make sure you are ok and aware of what's going on. The reps that I've spoken with have always been courteous and professional. CON (but definitely not a dealbreaker) After you test out the system for 30-days you have to call in to cancel it. I wish they would allow you to cancel it (online or within the app) without having to call in. Overall, this is a great system for your home, office, and anywhere you want to keep safe. The build quality of the products is top-notch as well as their customer service reps. And you get a lot of bang for your buck in this bundle, even with a 30-day free trial of their monitoring system. Simply its peace of mind in a box.

From easy installation to robust 24/7 protection, SimpliSafe has exceeded my expectations in making my home safer. Installation: Simplicity at Its Best What impressed me from the get-go was the effortless installation process. It was straightforward, with no need for specialized technical know-how. Setting up the sensors, base station, and other components took minutes, not hours. Coverage: Whole Home Protection The Base Station The Base Station is essentially the brain behind the whole operation. A built-in cellular connection ensures that your home stays protected even if the Wi-Fi is down. And let's not forget the backup battery, which lasts up to 24 hours, and the 95 dB siren, which is a potent deterrent for any potential intruders. Entry Sensors The four entry sensors blend seamlessly into the background and effectively monitor doors, windows, and cabinets. Their top-notch magnetic and infrared technology ensures no entry point is left unguarded. Motion Sensors The motion sensors are calibrated for human detection, which minimizes false alarms caused by pets. This is an excellent feature for those with four-legged family members. Notifications and App Compatibility: Smart and User-Friendly The system’s compatibility with Android and Apple iOS is another huge plus. Receiving real-time notifications on my phone adds an extra layer of convenience and peace of mind. It also smoothly integrates with smart home ecosystems like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. 24/7 Professional Monitoring: Safety First This human-AI synergy ensures rapid emergency response when it matters most. Affordability and Flexibility: No Strings Attached One of the most compelling aspects of SimpliSafe is its affordability. It provides premium security without requiring long-term contracts or hidden fees. You get high-quality protection that will not break the bank. Conclusion: A Holistic Approach to Home Security SimpliSafe's 8-Piece Indoor Home Security Kit promises advanced security, whole-home protection, and intelligent connectivity. Whether it is the entry sensors, the motion detection, or the 24/7 professional monitoring, each feature has been designed with your safety in mind. I highly recommend this system to anyone who values security and peace of mind.
