SafeWise considers many factors when analyzing and ranking security systems. We consider the quality of service, how expensive the equipment is, how customer-friendly the company is, and most importantly, what security features are offered. With so many systems on the market today, and so many factors to consider, we’ve put together a few helpful suggestions for you. Consider these three key elements when determining which system and company best suit your home and lifestyle:
Monitoring: the means by which the system communicates with its monitoring center.
Installation: the method of installation—professional or DIY.
Home Automation: the ability to control various events in your home beyond basic security, including turning lights on and off, thermostat settings, and others.
