Overall Rating: 4.4 / 5 (Excellent)

Deep Sentinel is a new company that is bringing actual human 24/7 monitoring to the home security system market. With their one product package and single monitoring plan, Deep Sentinel is utilizing the advances in A.I. technology and broadband internet connections to provide a security system product that combines the ease and affordability of DIY installation with real-time monitored surveillance. As a product that's new to the market, we do not have enough feedback from users to gauge all of Deep Sentinel's claims in reliability and effectiveness. We will update our review when ConsumersAdvocate.org receives additional information.

How does Deep Sentinel work?

Equipment - 4.5 / 5

There is currently one product option available through Deep Sentinel's online store. The Deep Sentinel Surveillance Package includes 3 next-generation exterior cameras with two-way communication and alarms, 1 smart hub with AI processor, and 4 rechargeable batteries. The Deep Sentinel system is focused on preventing intrusion before a suspect comes in contact with a residence, so there are no door/window sensors and interior cameras included in the package. The three cameras create a "virtual perimeter" that will alert the trained monitoring personnel.

Monitoring

Monitoring Options and Technology - 5 / 5

24/7 live video monitoring by trained security personnel is what distinguishes Deep Sentinel from the competition. When an intruder triggers the cameras of the property's virtual perimeter, an actual human located at the monitoring center will address the suspect via two-way communication on the camera itself. Threats are stopped even before a suspect can get to the window or door of a residence. At $49 per month, Deep Sentinel's monitoring is not the least expensive in the industry. But there's currently no competition in the sector who offers the same type of live surveillance protection in a consumer home security system.

How much does Deep Sentinel cost?

Contract/Subscription Flexibility - 4 / 5

Deep Sentinel currently offers one product package and one monitoring plan. The hardware package is currently discounted from $700 to $400 and the monitoring subscription is $49 per month with a one-year commitment. In the event of cancellation the live monitoring subscription within the 12-month contract, the customer would be responsible for the unpaid balance through the remainder of the term. After the first year, the subscription is automatically renewed month-to-month. A discount of over 20% off the regular subscription rate is available to those who pay annually; annual subscriptions renew automatically for another full-year.

Technology Integrations

Technology Integration - 4 / 5

At the time of our initial review, Deep Sentinel has not published the scope of its integration with existing smart home devices and mobile applications. We expect at minimum for Deep Sentinel to have both iPhone and Android apps with the ability to remotely monitor the live video feeds of the installed security cameras.

Deep Sentinel Reputation

Reputation - 4.5 / 5

Deep Sentinel is a newcomer to the home security system market with its "Deep Sentinel" system having its introduction at the 2019 Consumer Electronics Show. Reliability and usability experiences have yet to be reported and the company does not have reviews at either TrustPilot or the Better Business Bureau. However, the previous successes in the technology sector of Deep Sentinel's executives bodes well for their home security product. The product has also been praised by news outlets such as Forbes and Fast Company. ConsumersAdvocate.org will update this review when we can provide more information.
