Thank you for the shout-out! You can now connect your cameras to your Cove app! Our Cove system also integrates with Alexa and Google Assistant! 🌊

Vivent rep at a home show took my deposit and then sent me a contract completely different from what we agreed on. He tried to scam me two more times with a bloated contracts, so I requested a refund. I also searched the internet and found way too many people complaining about receiving used equipment that didn't work, couldn't get it replaced, couldn't cancel the contract, etc. WORST company!

@andyklapper8484 28 дней назад

I am a recently retired software engineer. I have an existing wired security system (doors, fire/smoke, water, floors) and an existing Lorax video system. I don't want to replace my existing hardware (though I'm willing to pay for a central adapter for the wired security devices), but I want a more friendly remote access option to the wired security and to integrate the security and video together. As a software geek I'm willing to go open source and open hardware. Any suggestions?

@ac1888 8 дней назад

I use Ring, and am happy with it so far.

@lexisnep525 Месяц назад

The police will use any and all of these products against you in a court of law as well. Just beware that such surveillance can actually be used against you, the home owner!

@johnszatkowski6898 Месяц назад

Most of the alarm systems mentioned here off the option to "disable" cameras when you are home. I can tell you with Ring when I'm home ALL my internal cameras are disabled unless there is an "alarm trigger" situation. I also have MANY Echo show devices that have the cameras DISABLED or covered on the device to prevent recording when I or anyone else is home. You do however make some VALID points because if you read the "terms and conditions" with these devices they can indeed snoop on you!

What're you on about sir

@@Jack-fr9bk : Ring has taken security first now after complaints and lawsuits filed!

@johnszatkowski6898 18 дней назад

@@Jack-fr9bk ; Just because I chose Ring doesn't mean you should. Some prefer the simplicity and basics of SimpiSafe and that fine too. Do your own research and choose the "system" that is best for you but just be aware of the added pricing for each system and what they really provide in the end of all things. In the end police/fire are only going to be able to respond so promptly given an "alert" depending on where you live so do you want to pay up to double or more to do the same thing that other systems offer for less???? Yearly costs add up to a BIG chunk-O-change over 5 years! Something to consider....

@johnszatkowski6898 18 дней назад

@@Jack-fr9bk : Another thing to consider is check with your Home owners Insurance policy provider as they may offer discounts on rates depending on which system you choose. For ME it is quite a bit! Which is ANOTHER yearly added cost the adds up over time!

No wyze security system on list??

@asksafewise 16 дней назад

Wyze had some issues last year around privacy concerns and we've since stopped recommending them. They're an awesome budget option, but we didn't like the way the brand handled this situation, so we're taking a Wyze break until that's been fixed or addressed.

Simplisafe couldn't even ship the damn equipment out without screwing up.

@firegirljen 9 дней назад

I’m gonna listen to this entire video, but Vivint is by far the worst

@jonayneginmedina 7 дней назад

Abode could be the worst name for a product ever created 😅

@JoeWard101 16 дней назад

What a joke. If you’re going to review security systems, maybe try reviewing ACTUAL security systems. Literally every system you’ve reviewed can be defeated with a $3.00 device from Amazon, have VERY easily hacked wifi. “I’ve used all of these personally”. Yea, you really seem to be quite an expert. How many systems have you installed? Programmed? Repaired?

@asksafewise 16 дней назад

Hi JoeWard101! I've tested, installed, and lived with five of these systems personally. Testing the pro install options like ADT and Vivint is a bit harder.
