The Lockitron product was one of many examples of IoT (Internet of Things), a concept which allows real-world objects and devices to be connected through the Internet. Apigy developed the previous smart lock that Lockitron used. However, it was not as successful as Apigy's. Moreover, it took too long for the lock to wake up.

How To
What to look for in a Home Security Monitoring company
When choosing a home security company, there are many factors to consider. Make sure you have someone who is familiar with what they are doing. Ask around to see if others have used the service provider. If you don't hear anyone recommend them, then you shouldn't use their services. Ask your family and friends if they would recommend this company. This is a great way to get honest feedback and opinions from people who have used the service. Go online to read reviews. You can visit their website and other social media sites, such as Facebook and Twitter. Read through customer testimonials and complaints. Take a look at negative comments and find out why they were written. This could be a sign that something has happened to a client.
Next is to verify references. Ask past clients how they enjoyed the service. Are they satisfied with the work quality? Everything went according to plan. It is important to ensure that previous companies are reliable and trustworthy. They didn't just give you a quote and disappear without finishing the job.
Next, ensure that your company is insured and licensed. A good insurance policy means that if anything happens to your property while you're away, they'll cover the damages. You don't need to call them during normal business hours. The best insurance companies provide 24/7 emergency services.
You should also check if maintenance and installation are included in the contract. Many companies charge extra for these services. This makes sense as maintaining and installing equipment is time-consuming and expensive. Some companies provide only basic monitoring services, which may not be sufficient for most homeowners.
Ensure that the company has reasonable prices. Paying too much for inferior products is not a good deal. Always compare apples with apples when comparing the different providers. For example, one provider may charge $150 for basic monitoring and another provider may charge $200 for the exact same service. Shopping around is a good way to save money.
