As we touched on above, a protocol is the language smart devices use to communicate with each other, and it serves as the foundation on which a home automation system is built. Not all protocols are the same, with some supporting more devices or using less power. Before committing to any home automation devices, look into which protocol works best for your home and if it supports the devices you wish to incorporate into your home automation system. Every home is different, and so is every homeowner’s security needs. Like most technical services, you can pay for professionals to craft your home security system or you can take matters into your own hands. DIY home security means you customize your device kit, self install, and then monitor alerts from your sensors and video feed. Self monitoring is the common difference between DIY and traditional security, but there are plenty of companies that strike a happy medium between both. We looked at providers offering pure DIY as well as those offering professional monitoring, either de facto or as an upgrade. We required all systems to have Z Wave Support — the most universal mesh network for communicating appliance to appliance. One of the biggest draws of a DIY system is the opportunity to add in third party equipment like Philips Hue lights or a Nest Thermostat at any point. Z Wave is available in over 2,400 home security and automation devices from more than 700 companies.

What companies using this lack in customization they make up for in reliability. Alarm. com app is a extremely reliable security app that connects to dozens of control panels, sensors and z wave products. The majority of all companies use Alarm. com except for the two giants, ADT and Vivint. Anything that uses alarmdotcom as it's backbone is a safe bet. If you want what is hip and cool definitely go for Pulse or Vivint which have their own unique app. In my experience, Vivint's is the best at security camera recording with the ability to go back and fetch time points on the footage easily. Most others takes a long time to go back and view footage, re capture it if needed for authorities. Thanks for the coverage on this post, in buying a home security system this control aspect from smart devices is actually what I'm researching first. Then whoever has the best platform is whom I'm going to be using.
