I have a friend looking at going with Vivint Security.
They claim they will use the existing sensors from the ADT (Ademco rebranded) system but I could swear Vivint can only use their own sensors.
She's worried about integrating her Wink water sensors and (sic) Alexa with the new alarm panel and Vivint said they can integrate with Wink and Alexa.
Anyway, any input you would care to share I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!
I will be able to give you a clearer picture on Friday. My mom has had Vivint for a couple of years and no they did not reuse her DSC sensors.
But Friday she is adding a camera, doorbell and door lock. It is all supposed to integrate with her Dot. So we will see. ie Alexa, turn on Alarm. Alexa unlock door.
What I am hoping is that the Dot can provide additional points of voice communication with the panel. There is only one and if she is too far away, she can't hear it or they can't hear her. But adding a bunch of Dots would be easy.
