“Interactive features are now standard on both professionally installed and DIY systems as consumers embrace IoT-based features for all devices in the home,” said Elizabeth Parks, President, Parks Associates. “Our research shows consumers increasingly expect smart features for all devices they buy, with a premium on compatibility, which creates excellent market conditions for integrated ecosystem offerings. We look forward to an in-depth discussion on the security market during CONNECTIONS.”
Parks Associates research finds 30% of US broadband households own a smart home device and 31% own a security system. These households are also much more likely than average US broadband households to have a home improvement project planned during the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown, so these consumers represent a prime target market for adoption of new and innovative connected solutions. Twenty-three percent of all US broadband households plan to start a home renovation project in the next six months.
