First of all, write down what you expect from a system, break in, fire, medical alert, etc. Then do you want it monitored by a central station or self reporting to your cell phone or family or friend, etc. Then check the monitoring rates per month and length of contract and possible penalties on contract cancellation. Set up a spread sheet then make a decision. Also check out the performance of the alarm company and their monitoring facilities. Unfortunately many alarm companies pay minimum wage and get very low quality employees. Good luck.
