Ring has the issue of a, not fixing long standing issues and b, having to pay for its marketing budget/shareholders need for ever increasing profits. Spent two days unsuccessfully trying to connect it to my mother's alexa - amazon echo show.

Highlights
Quality
After the initial five seconds, the quality is great.

Not the best cam and shot quality, but utterly sufficient.
Price
It would be more cost effective to install cameras.
Competitiveness
Long life on the rechargable battery too.

My ring 3 doorbell kept losing wifi and was unable to reboot so nought a new one

But as a system that only records when intrusion is detected it would work well but you will need the subscription
