The best home security systems of 2023

The best home security systems of 2023



While being home more often may seem to nullify the need for a security system, there are still several benefits to having one. Besides making you eligible for a break on insurance rates, there’s the peace of mind that comes with being able to easily monitor activity in your home, from the opening of windows and doors to water freezing or leaking.To get more news about smart home system, you can visit securamsys.com official website.

Unlike days of yore, you’re no longer tied to professionally installed systems. Companies like Ring and ADT now offer a bevy of video doorbell and DIY home security system options, so you can both lower your costs and add customization to your security setup without sacrificing quality monitoring.

A DIY system is great for renters, those who want to get a full make-it-your-own experience or anyone looking to incorporate smart home gadgets into their overall system, as DIY systems generally play better with the popular smart home ecosystems. Professional systems on the other hand, provide a more traditional experience and take care of everything for you — including having technicians take care of any troubleshooting down the line — though that all comes with a heftier price attached.
Focusing on DIY options, CNN Underscored spent several months testing five of the most well-known and -reviewed options, comparing them against a professionally installed system from Vivint as a control in terms of monitoring and overall setup. Taking into account ease of installation, feature sets and, of course, value, we found one clear standout DIY security system.
Combining a painless, customizable installation with a wide-ranging feature set, the Ring Alarm Pro is unbeatable at a starting price of just $250, with the option to add 24/7 monitoring (which can alert authorities when needed).

Setup for the Ring Alarm Pro was the quickest of all the systems we tested, clocking in at under an hour to complete the install. After plugging in the brain of the system, the Base Station, and following a few guided steps from the app, you’re off to the races with installing sensors.

The Pro goes further than the standard Ring Alarm by becoming your router and the main mesh point if you’re using an Eero system. It has all the internet tech needed to provide strong speeds.

It can also keep the internet going if your power or wired connection goes out. As part of the $20-per-month Pro Protect Plan, you’ll get 3GB of data that can keep all your connected devices online. Ring also sells additional GBs for $3 each. And we’d implore that you customize which devices can tap into this cellular connection via the Eero app — where you’ll manage the router portion of the Ring Alarm Pro — so that you don’t run up a high bill.
If you use Ring cameras or doorbells as well, you can stop uploading footage to the cloud and save recordings locally onto an SD card. Ring also takes this a step further by processing the videos on-device, which is a nice privacy-centric feature and didn’t result in slower notifications in our testing.

We appreciated the customizability of the sensors, such as the ability to choose whether they’re factored in during an alarm mode or should be bypassed. When we had a window AC installed, for instance, we could easily choose to bypass that sensor for that window. While many systems support this level of customization, Ring Alarm’s options are easier to find and enact — it’s not only front and center when you open a sensor in the app, but there are also guides to walk you through setup. Ring’s contact sensors quickly updated us when a door was opened, shut or left open. We were on the hunt for false reads, such as a sensor believing the door was open when it wasn’t, but found none.
