Deep Sentinel vs Simplisafe
Deep Sentinel and SimpliSafe offer quality systems for homes, but they have a vastly different approach on how they handle monitoring and the types of services they provide.
MONITORING
|
|
|
PROACTIVE SURVEILLANCE | REACTIVE MONITORING |
| Deep Sentinel is the only system that provides live guards who monitor and engage with the cameras in real-time to prevent a crime before it occurs. Actual human eyes and ears on your home at all times.
| SimpliSafe monitors a network of motion sensors, detectors, and cameras ONLY if an alarm has been triggered. SimpliSafe cannot detect nor monitor any suspicious activity that would lead to a break-in or an alarm being triggered.
|
HOW DOES IT WORK? | HOW DOES IT WORK? |
| Once a camera is triggered by motion, Deep Sentinel’s guards review live footage from the cameras positioned around the perimeter. If necessary, the guards will engage with the perpetrator and contact law enforcement in seconds.
| Once someone has triggered an alarm (window/door opened or a motion detector crossed), SimpliSafe’s monitoring center is alerted. Once alerted, SimpliSafe is required to contact the homeowner or verify through SimpliSafe’s cameras if law enforcement is necessary.
|
LEVEL OF ENGAGEMENT | LEVEL OF ENGAGEMENT |
| Deep Sentinel Guards will engage with the perpetrator in real-time. They can see and hear everything, as well.
| SimpliSafe staff cannot engage with the perpetrator eliminating the crucial seconds needed to prevent a break-in or an alarm from triggering.
|
SPEED | SPEED |
| Deep Sentinel Guards will have eyes and ears on the situation within 5-10 seconds. | SimpliSafe staff will be notified of a triggered alert within 30 seconds. |
