||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good system. Easy setup for the DIY person. We have 2 outside cameras. They have a great picture. I would have given a 5 star rating but we are having issues with the battery life on the cameras. Bought an extra battery to make sure one was always charged and there was no downtime when charging was needed. The manual says the batteries are good 3 - 6 months. We are having issues with 3 - 6 days. SimpliSafes Customer Service is working with us to try and get this resolved.

||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Simpli Safe exterior cameras have a clear picture. It's easy to go back in the system and look at recordings (which might only be available with a paid subscription, idk for sure). The monitoring company/subscription seems responsive when motion is detected while away from home. However, there is a delay with the motion that the camera detects, the camera has terrible lagging so it can take 60 to 120 seconds to view the cameras live feed (this is not a WiFi issue), you'll have to purchase the power cord, solar panel or have the camera within arms reach to charge the battery (unless you don't mind constantly setting up and climbing a ladder, the frequency to charge the battery depends on the activity level in your area, also if the camera is in arms reach someone can easily remove and walk away with your camera that's only mounted with a magnet), you'll need to purchase another battery to place in your camera while you charge the dead battery or you won't have video surveillance for about 8 hours which is roughly the amount of time it takes to charge the battery. If you live in an area that has temperatures that drop below 20°F the solar panel won't do you any good during cold temperatures, with the power cord you would need to make sure that you have an exterior outlet within reach to plug in the power cord (mine barely made it). Overall, the cameras are too expensive for the quality of what you get, the accessories (power cord, extra battery and screwed mount) should be included with the camera for the price. With the cost of this system and quality I feel like I overpaid. Initially, I purchased the indoor cameras package which is better than the outdoor cameras. I think I went with this company for the monitoring available and reviews. It seemed like the reviews were better when I made the purchase in August 2022 this review is February 2023.

SimpliSafe is simply easy!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My husband became paranoid after receiving the Ring notifications that were nowhere close to our house. We looked at several systems and decided SimpliSafe best fit our needs. We bought the Best Buy Protection Plan which included free installation. The GeekSquad tech showed up on time, and even he was amazed at how easy it was to connect the system to the internet, and set everything up, including the cameras. He said it was his first time installing the system and he would definitely recommend it. The system itself was on sale. My husband decided we needed an additional camera, and more Sensors. The camera by itself was $169, and the sensors $15 each, $45 for three additional. The SimpliSafe was on sale for Black Friday, and it was cheaper to buy the entire system a second time, as it came with two cameras and a key fob. We love being able to set the alarm from out phone, even when we’re out of town. I would 100% recommend this.

Being safe made simple
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With the amount you pay for the products you shouldnt have to pay for cloud storage. For the actual monitoring service sure but these wont last forever and will pay for themselves plenty of times over for the cloud storage.

Q: QuestionDo you have tonoay for monthly monitoring
Asked by Tammy.
- A:Answer No, but all you get without paying for monitoring is real time viewing without the ability to capture or save video. Please read my review carefully, as I point out that you need the $25 / Month monitoring plan to capture continuous video from the app. This fact is not advertised clearly.

Q: QuestionI already have a full simplisafe system. Can I purchase this set for the additional parts?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Yes you can. I just purchased this solely for the cameras (value is ridiculous vs separate purchase!) and was able to link them to my current base station without using the base in the package.

Q: QuestionHow much is a monthly subscription?
Asked by price.
- A:Answer There's 4 plans that provide different options. Self monitoring is free, so you could buy the system and never pay for any services. To enable recording, that's $10/mo. To get dispatching that's $15/mo. The most comprehensive service is $25/mo. If you don't want to pay but want to monitor things or see recordings of events, Simplisafe is not the way to go for free.

Q: QuestionHow many door and window sensors can be added to the system?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Even though you can add more devices including cameras, they all work off your home WiFi system and the Bandwidth used may impact all your devices on the WiFi. I have multiple cameras so I reduce the Video quality down a little to save some bandwidth.
Answered by Chaz
Q: QuestionHow long does the batteries last and how do you charge them?
Asked by lardog.
- A:Answer Full charge lasts about 2 1/2 to 3 months. Depends on how much usage it gets. The battery comes out of the camera very quickly and just plugs into a provided cable which plugs into any USB port/ Apple charger box. It takes a few hour to charge fully.
