Monitoring Service
I typically use SimpliSafe's Black Friday event to purchase new gear. However, given that they've increased their plan prices on a whim a couple years in a row, with no real reason or value, other than to increase their profit margins, I've decided to opt-out of rewarding them this Black Friday, and

Alarm Sensors
Yesterday my wife and I left for a weekend trip and I received a text at 6:12am that our master bedroom motion detector went off, causing an alarm at 6:12 am. Excellent performance on the SMS alert. At 6:14 while I was looking at the Android app my phone rang with a call from SS monitoring. He aske

Monitoring Service
Hello,
I am looking for a wireless alarm system and this one looks solid, but I do want it to call (or send SMS) to any number(s) I choose every time is triggered. All the alarms I've had in the past (all wired and that's what I'm trying to avoid now) have a GSM module that allows me to program the

Business strategy here appears to be monitoring fees not customer service. Nor does it seem to be customer satisfaction either. Paid or not.
My cheap cameras app and cameras features run circles around these with many free features, paid app extras (inexpensive) is even better.

Don't even consider refer-a-friend and expect the promised $200 Visa card
Referred my sister July 7, 2024 through the refer-a-friend promotion. I was to receive a $200 Visa after her system was monitored and paid after 45 days. That was 5 months ago. Repeated calls, they agreed the system had been correctly purchased through the required link, spoke to multip

Product Requests and Suggestions
Over 13 years as a SS customer, I and many others have asked for safe, precise integration with 3rd party IoT. On the plus side, to the best of my knowledge, SS has not been hacked. That is great and a #1 priority, but that also hinders integration with IoT devices. Many factors, including security,

Some of the audible indications from the system are absolutely necessary, but a low battery signal should *never* wake me up at night by beeping, particularly if the system is off. The software could be enhanced to allow customization of these alerts. For example, I’d prefer alerts for non-urgent is
