GBThe abode system fits my needs very… The abode system fits my needs very well. All the various device options work for me. In addition, there have been very few outages that I can attribute to the Abode system. In addition, the support has been very good and responsive. The only thing that I would like to see is possibly some additional device options for smoke and water detection and also the sliding door device battery runs out rather quickly and requires additional expense to purchase another.

It once did work but an apparent upgrade disconnected it and I cannot reconnect it. Also my GE z wave thermostat will not connect to your system. Another issue is your light bulbs. Once power is lost they do not reconnect to the system. This is inconvenient for a vacation home since no one is there to manually reconnect them. Other than those three items everything else works fine including your cameras.

SXI love the system, but get the cameras in Apple Home I love the system, even though the settings get a little complicated and could use some pop-up explanations or examples to show when to turn something on or off. What I hate is that the cameras do not show up on HomeKit! I understand that there may be a different cost for Abode to do so. So then make another version for Apple users!

GB8 Cameras didn't last 6 months Abode Cam 2 cameras are a waste of money. I bought 8 Cam 2 cameras for watching my mom's house, 3 interior and 5 exterior. She's 91 years old and lives 1000 miles away from me. Last year, I drove from Florida to Virginia, setup and installed the cameras, and got the Pro subscription. After about a week, the cameras started to go offline randomly. At first when they were power cycled they came back on. After about a month, they would not. In 6 months, all 8 cameras had failed and would not come back on when power cycled. My mom is not tech savvy enough to factory reset and setup the cameras again. Other devices, such as Amazon echo devices never had a problem. Wifi signal is strong. I have now replaced all abode cameras with Blink cameras and haven't had a problem since. The abode cameras are in a junk box.

GBWe are long term users and love Abode We have been using Abode for home security and monitoring, leak detection, CO/Smoke detection, and multiple smart home functions (locks, lights, etc.) We love what Abode provides for us seamlessly, and perfectly customized to our needs. Abode connects easily through their mobile app, and we also access it through Alexa and Home Assistant. So versatile, customizable, and reliable. I can't say enough good things about Abode.
