Ratings and reviews

Works okay but is quite limited. There's limited functionality in more granular settings for sensors. For example, I can't set a countdown on one of my sensors in armed mode but to passive while in part armed mode. Also, it's not possible to set all automations in Google home which is frustrating. Seems like it would be a simple fix to get implemented.

It's a shame because this alarm system could be great but I suspect years of underinvestment and scrimping on quality technology. The sensors only seem to work 70% of the time (sometimes the alarm remains on after arriving home even if I am jumping / waving arms in front of them, then will trigger if I enter a different room!!). Other times they all work fine. This level of inconsistency impacts the efficacy of the entire system and stops it functioning as peace of mind when asleep or out.

I feel now that i should have got R*ng instead. Hub occasionally disconnects from Internet goes offline. It's not a simple case of just switching it off and on. Need reset the hub by getting a small screwdriver and flicking over the tiny on off switch on rear of hub then power it all off, then on. So if you are out or away a week and it's offline, then you can't remote operate the alarm !!! Will not get any notification if thealarm is activated!!! Occasionally have to put a password in Again!!
