Pros & Cons

Pros

The app is incredibly easy to use and the walkthrough of every step is very clear. We currently have it as “self monitored” because we just wanted it for a little extra piece of mind.

Easy to use, customizable, reliable, and affordable. We feel soo much safer and would recommend this system.

The contact sensors come with a strong adhesive backing which allows for a solid attachment anywhere in the home. The sensors are fast and accurate. Take a sensor, pull out the plastic tab to connect the battery. Stick the sensor in place and then ope...  Read More



Cons

Ring is a bloated, clunky, and cost ineffective system. Software does not reflect a company who is worth over a billion dollars.

The motion sensor constantly detects motion even when no one is in the room and there is no movement of any kind. A second sensor doesn't recognize when the door is closed sometimes, so i am unable to arm the system without bypassing the sensor. The l...  Read More

The ring app takes forever to load. Support says it is because of “rich notifications”. There is a snooze option already, but doesn't snooze for a preset time the annoying announcement.

Quality


Great camera and system and easy to install


The quality of the alarm system is top tier.


The back up battery on the main unit it also very reliable and we've had to rely on it many times.


However, the system's flexibility and effectiveness make it a fantastic choice for anyone looking to enhance their home security.

Price


The value for the price is excellent and i feel like i'm getting great quality for what i paid.


Great cheaper version of security alarm drilling in walls not required.


We were paying $55 a month elsewhere and now only $16.


Worth the price for how much you get.

Packaging/appearance


I used command strips to put the alarm on my wall due to lease restrictions, but it there are screws provided in the package in...  Read More

Competitiveness


Most alarm companies appear to have quickly added these heat sensors to their line up, but ring has not.


Also, setting it to leave is much easier than other systems i've used.
