If you have any water detection system that doesn't have an automatic shutoff, I guess it's betterh than nothing but you always want a system with an automatic shutoff.
Why? Because if a water supply hose for the toiles, washer, dishwasher, etc., bursts, it's all over in a matter of minutes. You have a flood with major damage and cost to repair. Even a small leak can cause damage. Generally, when you install a new hose you might experience a small leak but most of the time, the hose will burst when they get old.
There is also a system by Homeseer but you need to be a little technical to use it.
