Yeah, the SimpliSafe 8 Piece system works with both Alexa and Google Assistant.

If you're into smart home stuff, that's pretty handy since you can just tell your assistant to arm or disarm the system or do a quick status check. The manufacturer says you can easily control it using voice commands, which adds a nice layer of convenience.

Besides the integration with smart assistants, the system uses both Wi-Fi and cellular networks. The manufacturer mentions that there's a cellular module in the base station that acts as a backup. So even if your Wi-Fi goes down, your home stays secure.

Our research shows that this is a feature a lot of people appreciate, especially during internet outages, because it keeps the security system running smoothly.

However, a heads up on the app: according to our research, some folks aren't thrilled with it, especially if they're trying to use it outside the U.S. It's worth checking if the app works in your area before buying, just in case you run into any issues managing it remotely.

To sum it up, the SimpliSafe 8 Piece system is pretty solid if you're looking for something that works with Alexa and Google Assistant and offers solid connectivity. Just double-check app support in your region to avoid any surprises.
