Cove review

Cove ranks third because it makes professional monitoring the default and keeps the choice simple. Every plan includes 24/7 monitoring, and Cove says its hub links to the monitoring center over a stable Ethernet connection. Basic at $22.99 a month covers monitoring, system alerts and app control on Cove Connect systems. Plus at $32.99 adds camera support with 7 days of cloud storage and a one-year equipment warranty. Premium at $42.99 adds 30 days of storage, AI alerts for people, pets and packages, a lifetime equipment warranty and a $5 monthly credit toward new equipment that rolls over. Cove sells eufy cameras and environmental detectors for smoke, carbon monoxide and water leaks, and offers professional installation. The limits are that cameras need Plus or higher, and the cheaper Cove Simple system has no app access on Basic. We compared documented features and published prices.
