If you get a video doorbell as part of a security system, such as the Vivint Doorbell Camera, you'll need to sign up for professional security monitoring. Cloud Video StorageYou do not need a subscription to view live video, get notifications or speak with visitors. However, you need one if you want to record your video to the cloud, so you can review and download clips. You can expect to pay between $3 and $30 a month for cloud storage, depending on how long you want access to older videos. Two companies, August and SkyBell, don't require paid subscriptions, but these are more limited than other plans. What to Expect from Video DoorbellsBattery vs. WiredMost smart doorbells replace your home's existing doorbell, so you can expect them to have similar power requirements. This means your doorbell needs 12 to 36 volts of AC electricity to run properly. If your home doesn't meet these requirements, you or an electrician may need to install a new doorbell transformer. While we found battery powered units such as RemoBell quicker to install, doorbells like the Ring Video Doorbell 2 that also connect to your existing doorbell wiring are superior in almost every way. However, batteries mean units are much larger than a traditional doorbell button.
