Vivint is the Most Intelligent Smart Home System in Oakland California

If you live in Oakland, chances are you're commuting more than a few minutes to work. Instead of coming home to a hot house or running the AC all day while you're at work, you can install the Nest Learning Thermostat on your Vivint system and watch in wonder as the technology actually learns your family's routine and adjusts accordingly. Do your kids come home before you do? The system will adjust for that too, keeping everyone happy without handing over the controls. If you do have multiple users you wish to grant access to your system, you can do that, too, and even personalize access so there's no errors or mistakes made and notifications go exactly where you want them to.

Answering the door is easier than ever now, too. The Vivint Doorbell Camera Pro keeps everyone safe by offering video of visitors and even taping comings and goings to you can use Vivint Smart Drive archives to retrieve video up to 30 days after the event.

Frequently asked home security questions in California

What should a home security system include?

California is a big place with a diverse range of neighborhoods and homes. So, when it comes to the best California home security systems there is no one-size-fits-all solution. The best security system for your home will depend on your location, budget, circumstances, and needs.

That being said, a comprehensive home security system would likely include the following:

Security cameras. The quality of your security cameras can make or break the proficiency of your security system. Smart cameras that don’t just record crime, but actually prevent it, are the way to go.

Security sensors. Security sensors are essentially the trigger of your security system, sounding the alarm if they’re triggered. Sensors can be placed at every entry point to ensure total protection.

Safety alarms. If you’ve lived through California wildfires, you know it’s not just intruders or thieves you need to protect your home against. Vivint Safety Alarms can help prevent fires, floods, and gas leaks.

24/7 monitoring. One of the things that sets Vivint apart from other home security systems is 24/7 monitoring. When an alarm sounds in your home, our award-winning monitoring team will be notified immediately, connect with you, and send emergency personnel if needed.

Vivint systems are customized to meet your needs. Give us a call to see which products would work best for your home. Or check out the Vivint Buying Guide to learn more.

Is it worth paying for a security system?

According to the 2021 FBI estimated crime statistics, there are 7,009 vehicle burglaries in California every year, 11,774 vehicles stolen every year, 2,297 robberies every day, and 52,085 property crimes every year. For many residents a security system is well worth the cost not only because it helps them keep their home and loved ones safe, but because it also gives them peace of mind. For Vivint customers in California, smart security cameras alone justify the cost. See why.

Which type of camera is best for home security?

In order to figure out the best security camera(s) for your California home, it’s important to first understand the different types of security cameras, how they’re powered, and what they can do. It might even be helpful to reference use-cases and compare different types of cameras.

Vivint offers three smart security cameras that are built to deter real threats and increase the security of your home. The Doorbell Camera Pro (Gen 2) proactively protects your porch, the Outdoor Camera Pro (Gen 2) keeps an eye on the perimeter and sends lurkers running, and the Indoor Camera keeps you connected and lets you know when someone is detected in your home.

What is in a smart home?

Generally speaking, a smart home is a home equipped with security, lighting, heating, and electronic devices that can function automatically and be controlled remotely. With a Vivint smart home setup, you can manage all your home processes from a single control panel or remotely using your smartphone. More and more California residents are enjoying the benefits of smart home automation.

What’s included in a smart home? An effective smart home system can be as complex or simple as you want it to be. For instance, if you live in an apartment in L.A., your setup might just consist of a doorbell camera to monitor your front doorway and a smart thermostat to remotely control the temperature in your home. Learn more about everything you need to make your home smart.

What is home automation?

Home automation integrates the smart devices in your home, allowing for automatic or remote control of different devices and settings. A home automation system simplifies various tasks around the house for greater convenience, comfort, and safety. Learn more about what exactly home automation is here.

What can I automate in the house?
