When you see or hear the name Vivint, home security, the color orange, or even Utah Jazz basketball may come to mind—and you’d be on target in any case. But those are just pieces of a much bigger picture.
Rooted in a history of home security, Vivint has gone on to lead an explosion in the smart home category comparable to the computer revolution of the 1980s, or the smartphone boom of the 2000s. At Vivint, we’re moving forward and building upward, and we’re doing it better and faster than anyone else.
