Ring is my favourite home security manufacturer. I’ve tried many. When my children were young I had a complete Brinks alarm system in my home, which worked fine, but was pricey. Since then, however, smart home products have become the most popular solution due to the low cost, high dependability, and—well let’s face it, smart home products are very cool! Enter this contest and Ring will have your home covered with some great home security products.
What makes Ring really smart
My top 3 favourite things about Ring are the ease of use, the great notifications, and the customer service. Ease of use of the app and the devices is just one really smart thing about Ring. I started adding Ring products to my home on Mayne Island about 15 months ago. They are so easy to install! I now have 2 outdoor security lights; one over the entrance to my carport, and one at the side of the house overlooking the main driveway to the house. I also have a video doorbell at the front door, and one at the backdoor. These work seamlessly with the Ring app on my phone: I can easily switch from one camera to the other at any time to see what is happening at the location. Also, I can activate the external lights on the cameras as I approach my home for personal safety.
Notifications work great and keep improving. When I first started using Ring, I was annoyed that notifications seemed spotty: sometimes the action that triggered the notification was over before the camera started recording. However, Ring keeps improving their app and their products, so that issue is a thing of the past. That brings me to one of the smartest things about Ring: responsive customer service! As I said I have used many different smart home products from many manufacturers, and Ring is probably the best at customer service. Just to be clear, I did not ever present myself to them as the Editor-in-Chief at Best Buy, one day likely to write an article about their products. I just told them that i am Martin, living on a little island off the coast of British Columbia.
Why did I contact them? I made an error (totally my fault) and broke the backing plate of the camera. Within a few days of explaining my problem, I had the part at my home, and the camera was installed in minutes. As I said, great service!
What are your smart home concerns
Why did I go into so much detail about their service? Well, Ring has recently started offering a home security package, with home monitoring of entry points, and keypads, motion detectors—everything you expect from home security. I have not tested this product yet, but given what I’ve learned about Ring, I expect that they will offer great service here as well.
So, tell me what are you looking for to make your home smart? Are you very concerned about the service you get? Perhaps you are most interested in getting some cameras around your home, or smart doorbells, or something else. One thing I forgot to mention is the great subscription package they offer. Most of the main home security companies require a subscription to get the most from their products. I love that with Ring, one very low price covers everything: video storage from all of the devices at your home, and home monitoring if you have their Wireless Home Security Alarm. All of it … one low monthly price. Now that is very smart!

Entering this contest is really easy but you can only enter once. In a comment below, tell us what your most pressing home security concern is, and what Ring product you think would be best suited to resolve that.

I’m concerned about keeping my car safe so the Spotlight Cam would be perfect for me.
I’m home alone a lot with my young son and would feel safer with the Ring Alarm Wireless Home Security!
I think having an alarm system adds safety and helps eases my concerns of theives
My back door. I need the spotlight camera for it!
My most pressing home security concern is the lack of views and knowledge of what goes on in my backyard. It causes me concern because I have two dogs and we back on parkland and just recently a neighbour brought bones for them, which they enjoyed. I worry that strangers with bad intent might also feed my dogs by throwing food or treats over the fence. The best Ring product I think would be best suited to resolve this is the ring spotlight cam. I would rest easier!
Packages being taken! Any of these would help.
Security outside to deter people from stealing from the yard
Need security as we are seniors therefore will start with Ring Alarm Starter Wireless Security Kit – Only at Best Buy
I would like to see who is at my door before having to open it. I think the video doorbell Ring Wifi 720p would be a great help in allowing me to do so.
I would really like the video doorbell for my mom who has mobility issues allow her to see who is at the door and if it’s safe to open it
Ring Alarm Starter Wireless Security Kit – Only at Best Buy so I will be secure in my own home.
Our most pressing home security issue is that we travel a lot and even though we have people checking our
home twice weekly I think for piece of mind this system would be a great addition to our home security.
I would like the ring spotlight cam for my backyard. We just bought the ring doorbell pro yesterday and can’t wait to install it!
i would love to have the camera technology for safety purposes so you can see who is knocking at your door.. there are so many home intrusions and an alarm can only do so much
I would love to have Ring Wi-Fi Video Doorbell Pro to see who’s ringing the bell
We have an alarm system, but i would feel much more secure if we had a system where we could see what is going on around our house as well as who is at the door before we answer it.
camera on the front door to see who is knocking
most pressing concern is the constant break ins to my vehicle in the back alley. I would love ot beable to see who is doing it.
We get a lot of unexpected people at the door that we do not want to speak to, so a Ring’s Video Doorbell would help us determine whether we should get the door.
A Ring security system would be awesome for keeping an eye on my vehicles and packages when I’m out of the house!
My concern is thieves thinking they are on top!!! No more because I need the Ring Spotlight Cam Battery!!!
I would sure make good use of the front door lock with camera as we have no security for our front door entrance
we live in a corner house near a school bus drop off so lots of kids and ppl in general lingering around and would feel more secure having some cameras and lighting.
My concern is knowing who is at the door and security of parcels being delivered. This would be great
There’s no streetlight in front of my house and I have a very long driveway with a detached garage in the back. The garage doesn’t have any lights on it so, naturally its black back there at night. My garage is home to all of my tools and power equipment. I worry every night about the security of my property. The Ring system would definitely put my mind at ease!
dark driveway, door on side of the house
I want to be able to monitor who is at the d0
It would really be nice to see who’s at the door without jumping up or going down stairs to answer. The Ring WiFi 720p Video Doorbell would be great. Also we have a sliding glass door that it would be nice to have outside cameras at that area as it is in a dark area and is not in view at all times.
we order lots of stuff online, so the ring doorbell can help us see if anyone steals our packages
securing our house
I would like a device that would detect motion outside my house. In the evenings it is very dark around my house, and out street lights are few and far between.
I work most nights and my wife is alone. Our porch is closed in so answering the door if I’m not there is not going to happen. She won’t even look out to see who’s there. I want her to rejoin the world and a Ring would go a long way to help.
I think as we are aging we would appreciate a video doorbell. We would feel safer and be able to only answer if we knew was at our door, especially when we are not home. The Ring WiFi 720p Video Doorbell would help with that.
We need the video doorbell so that we know who is at the door before answering it.
We get a lot of sales people come to the door. It would be great to know who is at the door without peeping out of the windows and getting spotted. The video doorbell 2 would be WONDERFUL!
We cannot see you is at the door and lately there has been a number of break-ins in homes, cars, etc.
we don’t want to go running to the doorbell from downstairs so it would be nice to know who’s there. I think the Spot cam and video doorbell would help.
Our issue is that our driveway runs along the side of our house so it’s always dark. I would love a camera with a light near the car
Our security concern is that we can’t see who is knocking on the outside door. The Spot Cam and A Video Doorbell 2 would solve that problem.
I would want the video doorbell to let us know who is at the door before we open it.
I have security concerns living in a rural area, no sidewalks and street lights that only sometimes work…to have the Ring security system, I would be able to keep an eye on my home when I am there and more important when I am away at work, oh and love that video doorbell
We live in a busy subdivision with many stores and busy roads around. I think the ring doorbell would be best so that I can watch for when packages are delivered and who is around my home. Thanks for the chance!
I would want the video doorbell to let us know who is at the door before we open it. We are seniors living in the country and crime is much more prevalent than it was 50 years ago.
Ring Spotlight Wireless Outdoor 1080p IP Camera – 2 Pack for the Night vision and LED spotlights easy to install and able to install high enough that they wont be tampered with. GLA
I live in the country and it’s very dark the camera would be great. The Ring WiFi 720p Video Doorbell would be nice
My mom is 88 and has severe mobility issues. It would be great if she could see who’s at the door and be able to open it from her chair.
I live along and the Ring Alarm wireless home security would definitely bring a feeling of ease.
I am a senior that lives alone and would love to see who is at the door or outside of my home before I open it.
Maybe the Ring Alarm Starter Wireless Security Kit – Only at Best Buy – would help us by Receiving instant alerts on your device when your home’s doors or windows open, as well as when motion is detected !!! Smile
I live beside a school and many delivery items go missing. The spotlight cam would be a great addition to prevent this
