I know that there have been other threads but I am curious on the current thoughts on Door Phones.
I am leaning towards Doorbird but want the best integration with HS3. I know Ring is popular with non-HA homes and their is a monthly fee for cloud.
The Doorbirds are pricey but I don't mind making the investment if they are the best solution and look good.
I have IP Cams with Blue Iris / HS3 integration which works great.
My current doorbell setup is pretty cool using a Channel Vision Front Door Intercom Controller For 1 Door (P-0920) controlled by HSPhone. It works great, triggered by a closed contact and makes an announcement in an British voice at the while at the same time triggering Blue Iris. I don't have 2-way communication but it records the message and sends by email. It however is outdated and I run HSPhone on my old Homeseer box and nothing else.
Thanks!
