Is it worth upgrading to Nest Aware (Plus)?

Do you want to know if it is worth upgrading from Nest Aware to Plus? The short answer is yes, but before we get into why, let's take a closer look at each.

Pros and Cons of each plan

- Low monthly cost

- Provides 24/7 video monitoring and streaming from anywhere in the world on your phone, tablet, or computer

- Available for an entire home, not just a specific area or room (such as a nursery)

- You can set up notifications to get an alert if motion is detected or a person is detected on camera.

- You can receive email alerts about what’s happening at home when you’re away.

When you should upgrade

If you own a Nest Cam, Nest Cam IQ, or Dropcam Pro, you'll want to upgrade to get all of the latest features. You'll also be able to watch your video clips on your phone and share them with other people. If you don't have a Nest Cam but are interested in one, it is worth upgrading because there will be many new features that are only available if you're using an updated version of their software.

At what level should I upgrade my security system?

Whether you have a small business or just want to protect your home, upgrading your security system can be a simple and affordable way to keep yourself and your family safer.

Many people don't know that there are two levels of security offered by Nest Labs: Nest Aware and Nest Aware Plus. With both options, you get a robust home security system that includes 24/7 live video monitoring, text alerts, and email notifications.

Our experience with our upgraded system.

I had been wanting to upgrade our Nest Cam for a while and when we heard about their new Nest Aware Plan, we knew it was time. We love being able to look back on all of our old footage to see what was happening in our house. It also helps us check in on things when we're not home. The only downside is that the subscription can be a bit pricey but it has been worth it so far!
