Ratings & Reviews for Ring Alarm Pro Wireless Security System, 8 Piece Kit with Built-In Wifi Router (2nd Gen)

Hope it works

I just put up, hope it works

Not willing to surrender my LAN

Get the "Pro" base station only if you're willing to give up control over your LAN to eero. I did not know this going in. I figured this would act as a network-attached appliance/client device like any other, sort of like a wired access point, and that the sensors would be able to figure that out, but it doesn't work that way. The "Pro" base station takes over your existing wireless network, acting as its sole proprietor for the whole network (and, with poorer performance than most leading brand...

High value, easy setup alarm system!

The Ring Alarm Pro (8 piece version) offers an excellent security system out of the box with an extremely easy guided installation process m - I was fully physically installed and up and running in 40 minutes. The system includes a remarkable router that boasts an array of cutting-edge features and would be a worthy purchase standalone from the security components - I am truly impressed with this piece! The router includes onboard battery backup and a cellular connection so even in cases of tota...

Extra security

Easy installation and setup. Comes with base station, keypad, contact sensors, motion and range detectors. The app is easy to understand and allows for a sense of security while at home or away. I use this alarm system with my ring doorbell and outdoor cameras for added security. Definitely recommend.

Super important if you want to feel safe!

This has been a game changer in our new home. It was one of the first purchases we made when we first moved. Moving to a new neighborhood and owning the home is quite different and this has made us feel much more secure. Much more affordable than other security systems out there

Not user friendly

Returned it an hour after install

Avoid the Eero 6 option

I was so excited to install this. Sadly I put everything up, only to find that the Eero 6 wifi base station caused my entire house wifi to not work. Centurylink sent out a tech to my house to fix it. I have started the return only 27 minutes after I set up ALLLLLLLLLL the sensors. Buying the one without the Eero 6 option.

Easy and basic, but expandable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this system installed for over a month, and so far it's been excellent. Set up was extremely easy and the app functions well. The 8 piece system is pretty basic, but I think I will add additional sensors and another keypad. The monitoring fee is very fair. I wish ring could add a glass-break sensor - then I would feel my home is completely covered.

Nice added security

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Once you get the apps downloaded on your phone, set up is pretty simple. I was glad it came with the range extender so the system reached to all the doors in my house. Alarms are loud and will certainly wake you up at night, if someone tries to get in!

Straightforward setup!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I delayed installing this after getting the system as I was nervous about the level of tech experience necessary to install this. Fortunately, the setup was pretty easy. Getting the base station set up did take longer than expected (unit was connected to internet via Ethernet, so it should have been a no brainer), but it ultimately worked. After that, setting up the security elements was actually pretty easy, just followed the app instruction...

Great product at great price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This kit did everything i needed in an alarm system for an external appt on house. It is good for small dwellings, but if have larger space...has ability to add on and build out to your required spec. Set up was easy and fast and works as promised....great item

Works Great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This alarm system is extremely user-friendly and works great. It is so simple to set it up and the peace of mind it provides is priceless. It's also nice how well it integrates with other Ring products we already own! And that it doesn't take a professional alarm company to install.

First time 'smart alarm' user

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We live in a safe part of town. We have however had a few car 'smash and grabs' in the area that have made us a bit more nervous. We already have other Ring products and thought this would be a great addition to the other amazon products we have (alexas, smart plugs...) So far so good. Setup was easy. I did have a really nice wifi router that this replaces b/c it has Eero built in so that's a benefit for folks that don't already have a m...

Affordable way to secure your house

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this kit and it gives me a mix feeling. First of all, this kit includes a router, motion detectors, key pad and range extender. It doesn't come with a camera so I have to buy an extra one or connect with the one I'm currently using right now. I think it's better that kit includes the camera. Secondly, the router uses different app so I have to download and use both the Ring and Eero app. The set up process doesn't take long but for me, I ...
