Wireless vs. Contract: SimpliSafe 8-Piece Home Security Tested for Smart Assistant Compatibility
We recently tested the SimpliSafe 8-Piece Wireless Home Security System, and it quickly became a standout contender in the crowded smart home security space. Its wireless design eliminates the need for drilling or wiring, making installation a breeze-just assemble, place, and sync. While professional monitoring is optional, we appreciated the flexibility it offers, allowing users to choose between self-monitoring and 24/7 expert support without being tied to a contract. The system's seamless integration with both Alexa and Google Assistant added a layer of convenience, enabling voice-controlled access and real-time alerts. However, we found the lack of a contract to be a double-edged sword; while it removes long-term obligations, it also means no additional perks like discounts or extended warranties. Overall, the SimpliSafe system balances simplicity and functionality, proving that smart home security doesn't have to come with hidden strings. Whether you're a tech-savvy homeowner or someone seeking straightforward protection, it's worth considering-though we'd suggest pairing it with a contract for peace of mind.
