Vivint

This is the first I've seen of it, but it looks like a pretty terrible deal.
Their basic energy management package gives you a smart thermostat, 12 light bulbs, and a switch for an appliance for $60/month. You could buy all that outright in a few months. If people are going for this, I'm in the wrong market. |

Are people going for this? Absolutely. Vivint hasn't made it out to my market, yet, but it's only a matter of time. They use the 2GIG security panels and I for one think they're great, for what they are. They bring home automation to a customer who isn't even on Crestron's radar. Their thermostats are (retail-wise) $250, their light switches can be had on Amazon for ~$50, their cameras are ~$200.

Vivint is making an ABSOLUTE MINT with this stuff. A poorly-trained monkey could install it, it's really that easy. Imagine just 1,000 account at $60 a month. I'll let you do the math. --- In Crestron@..., "Anthony Desimone" <anthony_desimone@...> wrote:

Yes, people are really going for this. I call it end point selling.

You just show them the Alarm.com app with the Cameras, Thermostats, and Locks, and the Security Arm/Disarm and it pretty much sells itself if you are just doing basic automation. Not a Crestron client. Vivint is in our area and selling a lot of them. We are also dealers of 2Gig and just getting going with it in a separate security company under our umbrella.
