Although it doesn’t offer energy monitoring, the Kasa app shows basic insights about the outlet’s current, daily, and total runtime.

Overall, Kasa’s Smart Outdoor Plug is a foolproof plug with an easy-to-use companion app that’s perfect for automating things like your outdoor smart lights.

The Cync Outdoor Smart Plug offers an easy setup, account authentication to keep you secure, and two independently controlled outlets. If you’re already invested in Cync’s ecosystem of smart home devices like smart bulbs and security cameras, the smart outdoor plug will be a natural fit for you.

The plug has weatherproofing outlet covers to protect from water, snow, dirt, and other outside elements, but it needs to be placed at least 12 inches off the ground to avoid any major damage. It doesn’t work with Siri or IFTTT, but the outdoor smart plug works well for voice control with Alexa and Google Assistant.

Overall, this is a great smart outdoor plug to make your outside world a more connected place to be.

• Weather resistance rating: IP64
• Single or dual outlet: Single
• Independently controlled outlets?: No
• Smart assistant support: Alexa, Google Assistant, Samsung SmartThings

Most smart outdoor plugs offer dual outlets, but not everyone needs two plugs. If you only need a single smart outlet, check out the Kasa Outdoor Smart Plug (KP401) for quick and easy remote control when you’re not home.

The setup is quick and straightforward, and the Kasa app is one of the easiest of any smart outdoor plugs to navigate. We set schedules and tried out voice commands with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, all of which were executed correctly each time. The outdoor smart plug supports a max load of 15 amps.

Additional features like Away Mode, a timer, and a rundown of average and cumulative usage only further add to the value Kasa’s plug offers. For a single outlet smart plug that’s quick and simple to use, you can’t go wrong with Kasa’s KP401.

The Enbrighten Dual Outdoor Wi-Fi Smart Switch is one of the rare few plugs that has two front-facing outlets, but the sockets lack individual control and only work simultaneously.

The Enbrighten app sends alerts if someone new logs in to your account and when your devices go offline—things that not every outdoor smart outlet can do. Other features include daily and weekly scheduling, a timer, and home automations based on your location, weather, and time of day.

One downside to the design is that the attached plug coverings are made of thin plastic and easily break off, making it harder to keep dust and other small particles out.

If you don’t need two independently-controlled outlets, then Enbrighten's outdoor smart switch should fit in well for your outdoor setup. But for a more versatile outdoor plug, check out our top pick.

• Weather resistance rating: IP64
• Single or dual outlet: Dual
• Independently controlled outlets?: Yes
• Smart assistant support: Alexa, Google Assistant

Meross’s smart outdoor plug is our previous Best Overall pick. Overall, the device is rugged, weather-resistant, easy to use/control, and it has status lights that are easy to see and understand from a distance.

This smart outdoor plug is very responsive, easy to use during setup and testing, and we love that we could see at a glance whether both outlets are turned on thanks to prominent indicator lights. The one thing that this plug does not offer, however, is reporting energy consumption.

Setting up smart home routines is simple to do in the app. From looks to function to the app, this outdoor smart plug is pleasant to work with.

• Weather resistance rating: IP64
• Single or dual outlet: Single
• Independently controlled outlets?: No
• Smart assistant support: Alexa, Google Assistant

If you want to control your outdoor smart plug remotely, but you don’t need a lot of bells and whistles, the Geeni is worth considering since it is a few bucks cheaper than many competitors, and it comes with two-factor authentication. It's on the small side for a smart outdoor plug, so it wouldn't be awkward to use indoors when you don't need it outside.

It even has status lights and a notch that will allow you to hang it from a screw or nail, which is a nice touch that keeps it up off the ground.

This smart outdoor plug is fairly easy to use but we found it difficult to specify which action we wanted to trigger each scene in the companion app. For example, the action could be local sunset, which would trigger the scene that turns the plug on.

The Geeni app also offers two-factor authentication to keep your account secure. This is a solid outdoor smart plug and a good value for the price.

• Weather resistance rating: IP64
• Single or dual outlet: Dual
• Independently controlled outlets?: Yes
• Smart assistant support: Alexa

The Ring Outdoor Smart Plug is best for smart homes with existing Ring devices, like video doorbells and smart lights. Unlike many other plugs in our guide, this one requires the Ring Smart Bridge to work, which is an additional expense to consider.

However, if you have multiple Ring devices in your smart home, this may be a selling point to you as the bridge can be used to connect to up to 50 other Ring devices like outdoor smart lights and motion sensors.

It does not work with Google Assistant or Siri, and there are no energy monitoring insights in the Ring app, but it does have mandatory two-factor authentication and a dedicated privacy control center to keep your account secure.

In short, this smart outdoor plug is great for Ring smart home devices or anyone running an Alexa-only smart home ecosystem. But given that the bridge is an additional cost on top of the plug, you’re better off choosing a different, more affordable outdoor smart plug from our roundup.

• Weather resistance rating: IP64
• Single or dual outlet: Dual
• Independently controlled outlets?: No
• Smart assistant support: Alexa, Google Assistant, Siri

The Wemo Wi-Fi Outdoor Smart Plug is a reliable outdoor smart plug with features like automatic timers, scheduling, and Away Mode available in the Wemo app.

The setup process, however, was a headache. It took several attempts to add the plug to a 2.4gHZ Wi-Fi network and to Apple HomeKit in the Wemo app. The smart plug eventually connected after resetting the device and shutting off the 5GHz portion of our dual-band Wi-Fi router.

The Wemo Wi-Fi Outdoor Smart Plug works well with all three major smart assistants, which is rare for outdoor plugs. If you use Siri on your iPhone but have Echo speakers throughout your home, then this plug may be the right balance for you. Otherwise, check out our No. 1 pick for dual independently controlled outlets.

• Weather resistance rating: IP65
• Single or dual outlet: Single
• Independently controlled outlets?: No
• Smart assistant support: Alexa, Google Assistant, Siri

The Lutron Caseta Outdoor Smart Plug ranks poorly on our list due to its single outlet and large size. However, it is well-built and feels durable.

This outdoor smart plug requires the Lutron Pico remote control or a Lutron Caséta Smart Bridge to operate.

Because this plug is pricey, we’d only recommend it if you're already using Lutron smart dimmer switches, or if you need a plug that works reliably across all three major smart assistants.
