No Annual Contract

Zmodo specializes in specifically video surveillance. There is a one-time equipment fee in purchasing Zmodo's systems and that's it! No contracts are required for service of its cameras. If you break down even its most expensive system, you'll save money versus other competitors who offer video surveillance part of a larger home security package.

Easy DIY Install

Because you can purchase Zmodo cameras without the help of a salesman, it ensures an easy, DIY install for its wireless equipment. It guarantees that you can have the system up and running within minutes. If you are interested in professional installation, especially if you purchase an outdoor surveillance system, the company can connect you to certified installers through InstallerNet at an additional cost.

Security Packages

Zmodo offers individual security cameras as well as packages that include bundles of security cameras. The largest package Zmodo has is its Zmodo N-Channel Business Security System. It includes a 32-channel NVR, 24 simplified PoE cameras, eight wireless security cameras, and three repeaters. This package is obviously pricer and will cost you $2,699.99. 

You can also choose between five other packages: 16 wired cameras, 24 wired cameras, 32 wired cameras, eight wired and eight wireless cameras, 16 wired and eight wireless cameras. 

Video Doorbells

Zmodo offers high-tech video doorbells in addition to its regular indoor and outdoor cameras. The company has five doorbell camera options and prices range from $149–$179. However, Zmodo frequently offers discounts so you can often purchase these cameras for less. 

Smart Home Accessories

Zmodo has a variety of smart home accessories to pair with your home security cameras:

Flow Smart Water Valve

This is a water valve that syncs with a mobile app and allows users to set water timers. Whether you want to water your loan every night, or if you want to turn off your water remotely because it began to rain, the app and water valve allows you to do so. You can also use the app to view your water usage and see what your zone charges for certain water usage levels. 

The valve also includes buttons so you can manually control the system. The water valve's battery lasts for one year, so you don't need to worry about regularly replacing it. When the battery is low, you'll receive a notification on your app that alerts you it's time to change the battery. 

Tune Smart Thermostat

The Tune is a smart thermostat that allows you to control and adjust the temperature of your home remotely. You can also use it to create schedules that will higher or lower the temperature based on your preferred schedule. For example, if you want to turn the heat down while you sleep and then turn it up throughout the day, you can set a schedule to do so. The Tune also has capabilities that allow you to set up auto-tuning, which automatically changes the temperature for you.

Door and Window Sensors

Zmodo also offers door and window sensors to pair with your home security cameras. These sensors are connected to your cameras and whenever someone opens or closes a window or door, your Zmodo cameras will rotate their angle to capture that area of sight. Your sensors will also trigger notifications through your Zmodo app that will alert you whenever a door or window is opened or closed. 

Beam Wi-Fi Extender

Beam is an extender that is meant to boost your Wi-Fi signal. It connects to your current Wi-Fi network and finds the spots in your home that are receiving little coverage and boosts the signal. It can boost a Wi-Fi signal up to 656 feet and 300Mbps. The extender also includes smart alert functionality that syncs with your door and window sensors and your Zmodo doorbell. This sends you an alert when someone presses the doorbell or when a window or door is opened or closed. 

30-Day Money-Back Guarantee

Another great benefit is that you can return the system within 30 days of purchase if you decide the system doesn't meet your needs.

• Self-Monitored
• Pricing Varies by Retailer

Self-Monitored

Because Zmodo Surveillance isn't a traditional, comprehensive security system, it does not provide professional monitoring through a central monitoring station. This means that you are responsible for monitoring your system. You can monitor your video footage through its cloud reporting feature and by using its easy-to-use mobile app. The downside of this is that no alarms will be going off and no monitoring operators will contact authorities in the event of an emergency.

Pricing Varies by Retailer

It's recommended that the consumer shops around its various retailers as the pricing is not standard and does vary from store to store. If you don't mind the extra effort, comparing prices among Zmodo's retailers will ensure you find the best deal.
