Great system, easy setup easy to use.
I purchased this after having xfinity Home for 6 years. I got tired of them raising my rates and playing with contracts. I love the new Ring system. I also purchased a peephole cam and interior camera. The system is VERY easy to install. I can't believe Comcast forces a $99 install fee for their similar system to install. Everything worked as it should out of the box. The door sensors are a little larger than most but they have some give on spacing and didn't have any problems. The system itself let's you setup multiple users. I have it notify me on my phone each time my door opens and closes but this can be enabled/disabled. There are no rules options as far as I can see like I had with my last provider (i.e. Automatic arm the system at X time in case I forgot). Very excited about the $10/month price tag.
I purchased some cheap smart bulbs on Amazon and have Ring patched in with them via Alexa. So in the middle of the night if my entry door open, I have the kitchen lights turn on blue for a few minutes. Early in the morning when the motion detector detects motion, the kitchen lights turn on white dim until the front door opens and I leave for work. When someone comes home during the day and disarms the alarm, my kitchen lights turn on and turn off after 30 minutes of no motion. This is all custom settings but using the Ring alarm sensors to trigger Alexa rules. Very hdlpful. Love this system.
