Smart button as a connected doorbell? (lemmy.world)

Hello. Can anyone recommend a smart button that I could use as a connected doorbell? We already have camera coverage on the front porch so no need for video doorbell. Would prefer zwave but am open to zigbee as well. Our front porch is covered but am concerned about using an indoor button outside, mostly because of temps, esp in winter.

I'm using a SmartThings IM6001-BTP01 (zigbee) to do this. Works well. Has been in operation for about 12 months.
