Canada: Broadband households and interests on smart home services

Brad Russell, research director, Connected Homes, Parks Associates, said: “Canada’s security market is stable but with high attrition rates, which makes market expansion difficult, and the security providers, telcos, and cablecos don’t want to keep pushing their services to the top of the hill only to have subscribers switch or cancel just to save a few dollars.

“These companies are investing in smart home adjacencies that add value to traditional security offerings and help with subscriber retention. Innovative services in health and PERS will help secure customers.
