Is Xfinity home security good?
We like the security features that Xfinity offers, including the convenience of monitoring a property remotely through the app.
“I love the security I get from this security system. The fact that I can see who is on my property is a total win for me,” a reviewer in New Jersey said.
The equipment is often highly rated, but customers sometimes have complaints about technical issues, customer service and difficulty canceling services. Another downside is that you have to already be a Comcast customer, which somewhat limits availability. If you’re not, it’s worth it to look into your other options to see if you can find a better deal.
