Tis the season of shopping and gift-giving! The uptick of so many more people shopping online means many more boxes are arriving daily on doorsteps. While it’s a nice luxury to order presents from the comfort of your couch, more deliveries lead to more chances for a package to be delivered to the wrong house or even taken from your property.

Linked Alarm recommends cameras for security reasons, but it can also help ensure your packages are delivered and safely make it into your home around the holidays.

The first step in selecting a doorbell camera is to ensure it matches your other smart home security products. If you have all Google products, we recommend you choose a Nest camera because it integrates perfectly. A Ring camera makes the most sense if you have an Alexa since they are compatible.

Two other security cameras we highly recommend are the SkyBell and the Hikvision. Below is a rundown of their features.
