Title: Security system suggestions
Post by: BigMike on October 16, 2018, 09:29:05 PM
I've had Brinks/ADT for years. The only reason I keep it is for the fire alarm part and for my wife to have a panic button to police.

The system is broken and needs an upgrade. I can get them to do it for free but would have to sign a 3 years ar contract.

Anyone have an alternative? I have Blink cameras as well. Thinking about Simply Safe or something like that.

EMC has a great deal starting at$16.95/mo.
https://emcsecurity.com

You can order the main box and keypads on Amazon, easy install since you're already wired, with no commitment, but if you want it monitored just sign up.

I switched to SimpliSafe and it’s been great.  Web and mobile apps are so much better than ADT IMO.  I had been with ADT for many years.

I checked many different options and was going to go with SimpliSafe.  I called ADT to cancel my service and they tried to get me to stay buy offering to replace my current system with an updated ADT Pulse system for $279 and $50 a month monitoring.  I told them no thanks.  They connected me to another guy.  He asked what he could do to keep my business.  I told him to replace my entire system with all new ADT Pulse stuff and keep my monitoring at $30 per month.  He put me on hold three times and came back and said they’d do it.  Then I asked him to throw in a camera.  I get put on hold again and came back and said they’d include a Ring doorbell camera for free.  They come out to install everything Wednesday.  I’m happy with the deal and didn’t have to come out of pocket $800 for the SS equipment.
