Your Current Alarm Company Is Robbing You. Here’s Why…

I was having a conversation just the other day with a good friend of mine that owns and manages a small jewelry store. We got to talking about IT related items and the mention of alarm systems came up. I asked, “how much does your alarm cost you per month?” His answer? “$750 per month.” After overcoming a mini-stroke, I began to explain to him the cost savings of Frontpoint Security… also known as Alarm.com. Now, I would like to share with you some of that information.

Alarm.com is a wireless, simple to use, simple to manage alarm system for homes and businesses. I personally use Alarm.com’s system at my house and have fallen in love with it. Here, I’m going to outline some of my favorite features about Alarm.com that directly apply to you and your business.

Totally Wireless

The Alarm.com components are completely wireless. Even the control panel. The alarm system’s control panel communicates with all the other alarm components (sensors, cameras, alarm, etc) via a short wave communication that requires no configuration. Meaning there is no wiring needed. Period.

Well how does it all stay charged? You may ask. The batteries inside all the components are good for years. I’ve have been a happy Alarm.com customer for  going for 18 months and I’ve never had to change a battery or replace a sensor that has “fallen off.” It’s truly unique and impress and makes me wonder why in the world someone would spend all sorts of money to have their alarm system “hardwired” into their house.

Why Do Businesses Prefer Alarm.com? Here’s what Alarm.com has to say.

Businesses prefer Alarm.com because its wireless signal offers superior security over traditional alarm systems. It requires no phone line or Internet connection, and continues to protect your property for more than 24 hours after a power failure. An Alarm.com system does what no other alarm can.

Mobile Control

Once again going with the wireless theme,  the control panel can be controlled one of four ways. 1) By direct input on the unit 2) By a wireless keyring much like you find with a car and 3) Via a web browser 4) By your mobile phone… Booyah! Your mobile phone.

Alarm.com is so exciting because you can control, monitor, and review activity at your home from your iPhone, Android, or Blackberry device. The mobile interface is clean, slick, and makes using the system a complete joy. Their is really no better feeling than being able to set your alarm right before you get on an airplane because you simply forgot to set it when you left.

Even better, here are a few ideas of how Alarm.com tells you how you can use the mobile features for your business.

• Make sure employees are opening and closing on time.
• Ensure no one enters private offices or sensitive cabinets
  without your knowledge.
• Track customer traffic in and out of your business.
• View daily reports on office usage from every sensor.
• Arm the security system automatically or remotely, even when employees forget.
• Receive notifications right to your cell phone, iPhone, BlackBerry or other mobile device.

Affordable

This is the biggest reason to switch to Frontpoint Security/Alarm.com – It’s only $49.95/month. That’s 15x less cost than most current business solutions. That’s a savings of $8,400 per year. If that doesn’t convince you yet to make the switch, I don’t know what will.

Other Fantastic Features

Below is a list of other features that set Alarm.com apart from all the hundreds of other alarm companies (all at the low low price of $49.99/month of course).

Wireless Security Video

With wireless video surveillance, you can literally see what’s going on while you’re away.  Watch live video online, on your iPhone App, BlackBerry App, Android App, or on the mobile Web.  You can even get alarm or motion activate clips sent by e-mail or MMS, based on your customized schedule. Let our cameras keep you connected.  Learn More about security video.

Instant Security Alerts

Whenever there’s an alarm, our emergency dispatch center will call you.  But, you can also get alerted of both alarm and non-alarm activity by e-mail or text message.  Use it to keep track of kids coming home from school, power failures while you’re away, or even a garage door you forgot to close.

Business Automation – Light Control

Now you can control lamps or other small appliances from just about anywhere using FrontPoint’s free mobile apps for iPhone, BlackBerry, and Android smartphones.  Plus, easily set up a schedule so that your lights turn on while you are away, or if an alarm sensor is triggered.

Business Automation – Locks & Climate

Remotely control access to your home with z-wave powered door locks.  And with a z-wave powered thermostat, you can also completely control the temperature of your home – from almost anywhere.

Remote Alarm System Control

Connect and control your home security alarm system from any mobile device (such as an iPhone, Android, BlackBerry, cell phone with Web access) or internet connection.  Easily arm or disarm your security system from anywhere near or far.  Plus, customize and control all settings online to truly personalize your system.

Burglar and Intrusion

Enjoy peace of mind knowing that your home and family are protected from potential intruders.  Your wireless security system creates a blanket of protection that is nearly impossible to defeat – keeping you secure and protected 24×7.

Patented ‘Crash and Smash’

An additional layer of security that sends a ‘pending alarm’ signal to the monitoring station whenever an alarm is triggered.  Traditional alarms send a signal after 60 seconds while the system waits to be disarmed.

With FrontPoint, a signal is sent immediately.  If you don’t send the proper code, our professional monitoring station will treat is as an intrusion alarm.

Fire

Regardless of whether or not you have existing non-monitored smoke detectors, our monitored smoke and heat detectors ensure that in the event of a fire, the fire department will arrive faster – reducing the risk of damage or injury.

Life Safety

FrontPoint monitoring packages all include professional monitoring for medical life safety.  Using the FrontPoint Panic Pendant, a panic alarm can be immediate triggered to send a police or medical panic signal.

24 x 7 Professional Monitoring

FrontPoint monitoring packages all include professional monitoring 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.  Our monitoring facility is one of the highest rated security monitoring centers in the country, including:

• Department of Defense Approval
• UL Tested
• Factory Mutual Approved

Redundancy Safeguards

We meet or exceed all UL-certification requirements.  And for maximum protection, our facility features back up system redundancy for electrical power, telephony, internet access, computer servers, and environmental conditions.  These redundancy systems are in place to ensure you have the best protection possible.

Conclusion

I love my Frontpoint Security / Alarm.com system. It was easy to set up at home and it’s a breeze to manage. The added bonus to the system, as a whole, is they offer packages where you can get the components typically for to free. With great cost savings, and the ability to manage your home from the road, Alarm.com is a homerun in my book.

So drop the your current alarm company that is robbing you blind and head on over to Alarm.com/Frontpoint Security.
