What You’ll Get, The Cost, and How to Buy

Are you considering investing in a smart home security system? Are you shopping around, getting a quote, and wondering what makes Alarm.com the best choice out there?

There are a ton of choices out there when it comes to smart home security and you want to make sure you're getting the best one to protect your family and your home. We’re going to answer your questions so you can get one step closer to making a decision.

What is a Smart Home?

A smart home is a system where your thermostats, lights, locks, motion detectors, cameras, and more are connected to a single network. By combining them this way, you can control your entire home from anywhere at any time.

Why do I need a Smart Home?

A smart home will enable you to monitor activity in and around your home, arm your security system, adjust the temperature, and turn on and off lights when you’re not there. It even allows you to talk with someone at your door and keep tabs on who comes and goes from your home. You can receive text alerts when something happens out of the ordinary, like garage doors opening in the middle of the night, plus 24/7 monitoring and support.
This company is awesome. I had trouble with an alarm going off constantly after hours (dust in alarm) and they sent someone out immediately to take care of it and get the alarm turned off. A technician came the next day and fixed the errant alarm!!
