SimpliSafe 12 Piece Wireless Home Security System w/HD Camera - Optional 24/7 Professional Monitoring - No Contract - Compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant, White

I felt the system was easy to setup and get running. The only items which weren't covered during the setup experience were the adjustments to motion sensors and selection of a monitoring plan.The motion sensors needed to be opened and adjusted during my install. Without the adjustment, the motion sensors appeared to not work. It was a simple change, just not mentioned in the setup wizard.The selection of a monitoring plan could be improved. You didn't get to choose which plan you wanted, nor was there any explanation of the different monitoring choices.I purchased the SimpliSafe solution to displace a Brink's System which required a long term contract and high monthly fees to work at all. I can blame myself for this, but I "thought" the SimpliSafe System was "fully" functional even without monitoring, but that's not entirely correct. If you choose no monitoring, it will still generate alarms and notify you, but the camera video storage is only accessible IF you have monitoring ... just like Ring products (only live viewing). If the video storage is important to you, then you'll need a monitoring subscription.Lastly, the base station is equipped with a SIM(module) and the base I received was pre-configured for Verizon. It just so happens in the rural area where I installed my system, Verizon coverage was insufficient and there's nothing in the App or on the base station which indicates that Cellular Backup isn't functional. Also, if you want to change to another carrier, they can accommodate that - but you have to disassemble your base station and remove/install a new LTE module ... not just a SIM. A sim slot behind a cover would have probably been more effective (or even better a global roaming SIM).All in all, great product, feels solid in your hands, the App is excellent, and the siren I added was shockingly loud. Only thing left for me to learn is the battery life. Since my system is installed in a vacation home, I suspect the lack of device event triggers will help the batteries last quite a long time.

Very easy to set up and operate. I’m very happy with this system.

First, there are no instructions or quick start card in the box. I was leaving town and decided to install this system because it was supposed to be so flippin easy to install and I decided to install this almost at the last minute. Some of the devices connected real easy, but without instructions could not get the system to work as a system. This so called app is worthless. Lets you set up a camera or set up remote monitoring. I was unable to set up the camera, it would not connect to my wifi and even if it did, how the heck are you suppose to view it since the app does not work to even connect it. I have tried to find a manual and there is all kinds of crap out there, but no set up procedure. Had to leave town without a security system functioning. As luck would have it, the day I returned home the base station sounded a water alert, And there was some water on the floor by the water heater. Actually a very small amount of water and the sensor picked it up. That part is good. I fixed the problem and then the frustration began. There are no instructions on how to disable the very irritating voice telling me there is a water alert over and over again. I still do not know how to disable the alarm, so I pulled a batter out the base station and it finally shut up. I hate this system thus far and ready to trash it because that is all is to me right now, crap. If anyone at SimpliSafe reads this would you be so kind and forward me a manual in my email. Step by step and how do clear an alarm and connect the camera. Please. Otherwise it is trash.
