Charleston residents can enhance the intelligence of their homes by upgrading to a Vivint system

Smart devices are supposed to make modern life easier, but when you have three or more different smart home toys that are all controlled through different apps, you really just have one giant headache on your hands. Switch to the service that makes life easier and install a Vivint system in your home today to centralize control over all your smart home conveniences and safety features. The basis of any good smart home system is centralized control. If you have to log in to various accounts on different apps just to control your home's alarm system and convenient smart devices, that's not really a 'smart' system. When it comes to saving money, the little things add up; unplugging your coffee maker when it's not in use, turning off lights before you leave the room, and adjusting your thermostat to a more economical setting before you walk out the door. Life is busy, and the little things are easy to forget. That's where our revolutionary smart home systems come in. Vivint Playback DVR, our proprietary smart home platform, weaves together all of your devices into an interconnected web and gathers information about your routines and habits and then automatically adjusts to accommodate your lifestyle. Vivint Playback DVR can be accessed through two different channels:

  1. Vivint Smart Hub - A WiFi, cellular, Z-Wave, and 345 MHz touchscreen panel that mounts inside your home, bundles your devices into one network, and connects directly to 24/7 monitoring services.
  2. Vivint app - A top-rated app on The App Store that puts the same Vivint Smart Hub dashboard on your smartphone or tablet.

Advanced smart home technology at your fingertips

The key to Vivint technology is not that it is just another smart home system, but that it offers an intelligent option in the marketplace. A true smart home isn't intelligent without centralized control and a connected ecosystem of smart devices that work together and can be easily controlled. You'll enjoy three major benefits with Vivint:

  1. One Account, Multiple Users: With Vivint, you can set up access to a singular account for multiple users, which means that everyone in your home can use and enjoy smart locks, smart doorbells, and all the other safety and convenience features of your system. There are even varying levels of access so kids don't have the same control as adults.
  2. Voice Control: Vivint technology integrates easily with an Amazon Echo device, so you can control any of the voice-activated features of your Vivint system with the sound of your voice, courtesy of Echo.
  3. Remote Access: The Vivint Playback DVR platform creates an intelligent smart home system that learns how you use your home over time and automatically adjusts settings around your routines.

Upgrading your Charleston home is easy and affordable

For years, smart homes have been fodder for science fiction and fantasy stories. Now, most people see them as the new 'in thing' and wouldn't dream of building a new home without integrating this fantastic new technology into its construction. The fact is, any home, regardless of its age, can be transformed into a smart home. Vivint will furnish:

  • Zero-interest financing on your initial state-of-the-art smart home products
  • Customized security system to fit your home and lifestyle
  • Smart Home Pros available for a fully integrated smart home package professionally installed
Give us a call today and see just how much more convenient, safer, cheaper, and more relaxed your life can be.

My technician was Amazing!

My technician, Damien, was the best part of my experience. He was veey helpful with helping me understand what I was getting and offered suggestions. More importantly, he was professional, respectful, knowledgeable, and precise. The installation was flawless and he left everything as he found it. He even cleaned up behind a previous tech who had been in my home for something else. I would highly recommend Damien.

Same day service. The installer gave me mixed information as far as my email address which caused confusion. I called after the 3rd person picked up. She had log in panel input my 2nd email address which caused. I can hear my door bell, but am not sure about inside. Still getting adjusted. Love the picture ID clear.

I enjoyed the experience however do I think the equipment price is egregious.

I enjoyed the experience however do I feel the equipment price is a rip off. To pay $4000 for equipment as well as the automatic door lock which is a very antiquated version. However, I like the service and I am hoping the switch will be worth it.
