I actually just came from a 2gig/alarm.com/brinks service. The panel is 100% better on the 2gig but the panel doesn't make the system. It's just a hub you arm stuff with. The ring has cellular backup with monitoring. The integration with Alexa makes the ring better IMO on ease of use and actually arming it more frequently.

I can also customize each sensor where the 2gig I could not.

My neighbor actually had the same system and he tested it 3 times by tripping it and seeing if anyone called. Nobody did 3 times and he cancelled. That's on the monitoring though not the system.

The alarm dot com is going to be as good as the person setting it up. I definitely wouldn't use brinks.

So does ADC plus IP

ADC works with Alexa too plus SONOS

Not sure what you are exactly trying to get at but you can do that with an alarm .com system too.


I've work around these products, including Ring, since they have been on the market, like I said this is just my opinion from my experiences.
