Very detailed review, thank you Alarm-Reviews! I”m on the hunt for the best possible security system for my business. I noted that this has high installation fees and a long contract. I was on the phone with SafeGuard recently, and if you ask to talk to the sales manager they can work out a custom plan with you. It’s worth a shot, in any case, to see if you can get a better rate.
