More than 90% of security dealers offer some form of interactive service and 75% of security sales overall include at least one smart home device, according to the study by Parks Associates.
“The most popular devices are networked video cameras, but new items such as video doorbells and smart door locks are increasing in popularity,” stated Tricia Parks, CEO and founder of Parks Associates. “The safety and security aspect of the system remains the strongest selling point, but inclusion of smart home products adds more connected lifestyle value to a security system.”
Amazon recently acquired video doorbell maker Ring and also stopped selling new products from Google’s Nest smart product line.
