According to our alarm system expert
WoonVeilig and Philips Hue are joining forces with the WoonVeilig Alarm-03 and Philips Hue Starter Pack. The alarm system has a control panel, remote control, 2 motion detectors, and a door/window contact, which is everything you need to secure your home. By linking the Hue White and Color lights to the alarm system, you allow both elements to communicate with each other. You can configure the lights to emit a red, flashing light when there's an intruder, or you can set the lights to switch on automatically in the evening. You can control the alarm system and the Hue lamps with the smartphone app (iOS and Android), so you'll always be up to date with your home's security.
The Philips Hue Starter Pack includes 2 Hue White and Color lights and the Hue bridge.

Very easy to install out of the box. Too bad that the internet cable is yellow and the power supply black instead of white. If you want to hang it somewhere it looks ugly.
Motion detectors need to hang relatively low (around 180cm) to be able to pick up movements effectively. Sensors are therefore continuously in the field of view.
Installing is quite easy. However, the interface is heavily outdated. It would be easier if you could see the settings per floor, and also see where the sensors are located. Very strange that there is no possibility to give family members their own code, without giving them immediate access to the entire system. Adding your own code is only possible when you create a completely new “resident” with your own login, address details, email address, etc. This is very inconvenient. It is often not clear what the "check marks" are for, this could be explained more easily. Few options to set up the system via the app.
During installation you are REQUIRED to provide your IBAN and you are REQUIRED to use the “free” trial period for the extended service. There was no option to opt for the free basic service. The paid service does not offer me any major advantages over the basic service. If you then want to convert the paid service to the basic service, you have to perform a lot of actions and this is only possible via customer service and not via the interface itself. In addition, a calendar month notice period, so you always have to pay one month, unless you cancel immediately on the day of registration. Coolblue can communicate this better on the site.
The system itself works fine. Accessories are easy to add and the alarm is very loud.
Good purchase with minor flaws that residential safe can solve itself.

A new wave of burglaries in our area moved us to purchase an alarm system. We already had Philips HUE, so this system was a great option to connect to that.
Easy to install, no hassle with cables, all very nice. Only the registration was a bit difficult because the WoonVeilig site was always down.
To my surprise, at the end of the registration, I had to enter my IBAN and that surprise increased when I could only complete the registration if I checked a paid subscription of about 100 euros.
Terminating that subscription was only possible with the greatest difficulty, the page to manage the subscription is untraceable.
Only when I called customer service I was sent a link to a page where I still had to go to myself (the lady didn't want to arrange it for me, no matter how much data I could give to identify myself) was I able to stop it.
I can follow the fact that you will not receive warnings by phone and text without a paid subscription, but a number of the functions that are turned off (see images) when you cancel the paid subscription are services that you can expect when you buy a product. buy this price range.
I find the mandatory signing of a paid subscription, making it difficult to cancel that subscription and disabling such basic functions a particularly bad, aggressive way to sell a subscription in addition to the expensive product. Not of this time anymore.
I really feel trapped.

We are very satisfied with this alarm system. The system is easy to attach and install. The price-quality ratio is good. We find the app and the Hue lamps very useful. The only drawback is that you cannot turn the siren on and off via the app, this can only be done via the website. In the beginning we turned off the siren because we were not used to an alarm system and did not want to let it go off unnecessarily.
