Out of the three, I’d take SimpliSafe’s all day. And the base station I used when I reviewed the Eufy Dual Video Doorbell was a little too big and boxy for my liking. It’s not bad, but not really design-y either. Ring’s base station mounts on the wall and looks a little like a speaker. When comparing it to other base stations, I have to say it’s up there. I set mine up on the mantle next to some plants, and my wife, who takes design pretty seriously, told me it looked great. Not to worry, though it has a pleasing, vase-like shape, and the glow from its light is actually pretty nice - especially at night. For connectivity’s sake, it’s recommended that you put it in a central location off of the floor, which means it’s likely going to be out in plain sight in your home. Please ignore the plant I need to water.įirst Impression: I really liked the size and the design of the Base Station. The SimpliSafe Base Station sitting on my mantle. Let’s talk about the equipment itself - you know, the fun stuff. Overall, it’s a handy tool and makes working with your security system really convenient.Įnough about the app, though.

Why? Because it checks two of the most important boxes for me – it’s well designed, meaning it doesn’t glitch out or get buggy, and it’s intuitive, meaning everything is where you’d expect it to be. SimpliSafe might not be the best one I’ve ever encountered, but it’s certainly up there. I’ve worked with dozens and dozens of home security systems over my career, and as such, I’ve downloaded dozens and dozens of apps. Adding equipment to my system through the SimpliSafe App.
