CE Pro's annual Brand Analysis study surveys the top 100 highest-revenue residential integration firms, otherwise known as the CE Pro 100, to determine their preferred brands in the categories of audio, video, home automation, networking, lighting control, security and more.

Following close behind is DoorBird before a steep dropoff to Skybell, Channel Vision and Control4. Dealers used a total of 11 manufacturers in the Video Doorbell category.
