Does anyone know of a video doorbell solution similar to "Ring".
I have a Savant customer who wants that but I was hoping to put in something little more glamorous but with similiar features. Cabling was ran during pre-wire.

The flush mount stainless seel doorbird is really nice looking in my opinion.
I'm Not an engineer, but I play one on TV.
My handle is Tweety but I have nothing to do with the organization of similar name. I just had a really big head as a child so folks called me tweety bird.

Another vote for DoorBird. And I think it looks nicer too. +it does come in different finishes, unlike a lot of the cheaper competition.

Check out ABB as a self contained solution. We just did one and it works great. Only a two wire bus for everything as well. Pretty cool.

[Link: new.abb.com]

Note that it will be WAY more expensive than a Ring by an order of probably 4-5 times.

It is a much better looking unit on the exterior of the home (ring pro) then a door bird unless you go with a flush door bird but they are still a little large.

Well, there really isn't a comparison when it comes to features between the 2 doorbells.

The Doorbird certainly offers a much better integration experience for home systems, whereas the Ring only calls your phone/pad and ding-dongs your existing bell setup.

I'd take the bigger, better, more functionality unit any day.
