Alarm.com-Powered Security Cameras: Superior Protection for Your Home

Today, a majority of American homeowners use surveillance technology.

In fact, security cameras are a top investment for homeowners because they deter burglars, help your family feel secure, and provide an easy way to check in on your home.

But not all security cameras offer the same level of protection! Choose a video camera that connects to a comprehensive smart home security system to get the best value and biggest bang for your buck. Powered by an industry-leading platform, Alarm.com cameras have smart technology and robust capabilities.

Here are four ways Alarm.com cameras take your home security to the next level, giving you the advantages of professional monitoring with one easy-to-use system.

1: Know What's Happening Anytime, Anywhere

Traditionally, security camera footage was reviewed after an incident. Now, the Alarm.com app lets you see what's happening in real time.

From the app, you can:

  • Get a Clear View: Our wireless cameras for indoors and outdoors provide crystal-clear resolution. Check if the dog walker arrived on time, greet them via two-way audio, and unlock the door—all from the app.
  • Take a Closer Look: Check on your kids or pets by opening the living room video feed and zooming in for a better view.
  • See in the Dark: Our cameras' infrared black and white night vision lets you see clearly at night. For color night vision and additional security, use the Alarm.com Floodlight Camera to activate floodlights on demand or on a schedule.
  • Review Alerts: Missed an alert? Cloud storage and 24/7 recording options let you watch recorded highlights anytime.


Live safe. Live well.

Experience total protection with customized, professionally installed security and a home that works intuitively to keep you safe.

2: Video Alerts Tailored to You

Unlike ordinary video cameras, Alarm.com lets you choose specific events for real-time alerts, keeping you informed without overwhelming, constant notifications.

  • Stay Informed on (Important) activity: All Alarm.com-powered cameras have built-in activity detection—but no one wants an alert for every movement in their house. Alarm.com lets you customize an activity-triggered alert for any camera, just filter it by time of day or security arming status.
  • Watch out for Deliveries: 44% of Americans have had a package stolen. Package Alerts notify you about deliveries quickly, helping prevent theft. You can also use two-way audio to deter suspicious lurkers or talk directly to delivery drivers from the app.
  • Spot Animals: Know if your pet decides to nap on the couch while you're at work or if your neighbor's dog pays an unwelcome visit to your lawn.
  • Unexpected Activity Alerts: Learning your daily patterns, Unexpected Activity Alerts notify you when there’s unusual activity that needs your attention.


3: Proactively Deter


Our cameras don’t just record crime—they stop it before it happens.

Our crime-stopping surveillance products and features work together to create a strong defense system. Each service can be used individually or together for early detection and real-time intervention. Alarm.com's industry-leading Video Analytics and cameras use Perimeter Guard® to deter unwanted visitors with audible alerts and flashing LED lights.

  • As the first line of defense, the AI Deterrence (AID) delivers customized AI-generated verbal warnings from Alarm.com cameras to proactively ward off unwanted visitors.
  • Our Remote Video Monitoring console sends video events to monitoring stations for quick assessment and action.
  • Our floodlight camera offers high definition (HD) video, powerful lighting, and customizable audio and visual warnings to ensure no detail is missed.

*PACKAGE ALERTS AND PERIMETER GUARD® ARE AVAILABLE ONLY ON THE 770 VIDEO DOORBELL (ADC-VDB770)

4: Comprehensive Coverage


  • Front Door Options: Choose from a range of video doorbells with analytics and two-way audio. Answer your door remotely, talk to visitors, and capture activity clips.
  • Smart Doorbells: Alarm.com video doorbells use Video Analytics to identify visitors, even if they don’t ring the bell. Rapid People Detection alerts you to all visitors, welcome or not.
