    This video was useless.

    In case this reaches anyone considering it – cove was an absolutely awful system. I had to go through 3 panels, before being "graciously offered" to be allowed to pay for the new, upgraded one. After 4 hrs of arguing, I got it for 90% off (taking my monthly credits, and getting a free month of monitoring), and although now it didn’t break, the feature set was worse and it had a Cove-created login that I couldn’t change. Yay. And this is on top of there hardware glitches and breaks. Huge waste of money.

    What about jammer detection?

    If cost is not an issue for me what is the best option where I can get all the equipment like cameras, sensors, smart doorbell etc to install in a villa knowing that it is big and not small or medium With a garden too.
    I want the best of the best

    ADT – Another Dumb Tech. You never get the same Tech on a service call. You have to wait and wait and wait for a service tech. And when one does show up, they know nothing about your system and no nothing about what is really wrong.

    Is there any one system that is more prone to hackers disabling or utilizing the cameras against the homeowner to observe them? Thank you!

    8:14 are you guys going to review the new ADT Smart Home Security on their web site? It’s the same system whether it’s Pro installed or Self Installed!!!

    We’ve been using Eufy with their $100/yr monitored service and really liking it. It appears to be best value and Eufy cameras are always top notch. The main thing it misses is cellular backup option for HomeBase 3. As you know, for monitoring service they use Noonlight. What are your thoughts on Noonlight for monitoring? Now that Ring AGAIN essentially doubled there price, Eufy seems like it MIGHT now be the top contender… But YOU are the pro… so what are YOUR thoughts. While we are out BeerVlogging we want to keep our house and fridge of beer super safe. Is Eufy a good way to do that while saving some cash for more beer?
