SimpliSafe Review
4.5
Our verdict
SimpliSafe is the best DIY security system for renters and homeowners who want flexible, no-contract monitoring.
SimpliSafe strips away the friction of traditional home security. Setup takes minutes with no tools required, and you can add or remove sensors as your needs change.
Professional monitoring is available month-to-month with no long-term contracts, starting at a competitive rate. The equipment is reliable, and the mobile app gives you full control over arming, alerts, and camera feeds.
While SimpliSafe lacks some of the advanced smart-home automation of pricier competitors, its value and flexibility make it our top DIY recommendation.
