that is the greatest thing since sliced bread. The initial cost is reasonable, installation is a snap and the technology is fantastic. Won't go into how it works but I am a retired technology executive and I am impressed. Low monthly monitoring fee makes it a winner in the long run.

Excellent system and service from this company! Easy enough to install that you can do it yourself! Totally wireless, and the sensors and keypads stick on the wall or surface you want to install it on. Uses cell phone technology so you don't even need a telephone line! Get one... you will not be disappointed!

We purchased a security system for our home and have it monitored for a very reasonable monthly cost. They also have an app I can use from my smart phone to operate and monitor the security system from anywhere I am. The system was very easy to install and activate. We are very happy with our security system.

I installed them all myself, it was very easly to install and test. The monitoring system is great. What I liked about this over other similar systems is that I could tailor what I needed for my specific house and was able to minimize the initial investment and make sure that my full home was secure. The monthly monitoring rate is also very reasonable. The quality of the components is great. I would recommend to others to consider this as a great alarm and monitoring set up.
Description of Work: I ordered all of the components for my home.

The system works as expected, was very easy to install, and meets our needs. I recommend this system to anyone who hates the idea of paying for a contract for monitoring. With Simplisafe, you can choose to pay for monitoring month-to-month, and turn it on or off at any time. Downsides: sensors aren't as high-quality as some large providers. They are very late (> 1 year) in releasing a glass-break sensor. They are a small company and customer service is a little slow. There is some integration with the Internet (email/text when alarms go off) but they require paying for monitoring. Overall, I feel this is the best option on the market for ease-of-use and no contract.
Description of Work: We ordered a self-install Simplisafe security system, unmonitored, and I installed it myself.

Very happy with it and them, a very satisfied customer.
Description of Work: Simplisafe is an install it yourself, portable alarm system that you can take with you when you move. It operates on the cell phone system, so let bad guys cut your phone wire, it won't help them any. Also has a discrete alarm code, password setup, and they have been very responsive when our system has activated.

They are very affordable, no contract and the service is excellent. initially I was reluctant since it was not one of the popular brands, but after having had simplisafe for more than a yr I have no regrets about my decision. |The set up is very simple and the cost is 15$ a month and very reliable. | |I am happy so far.

It was easy to install myself, and I did not need a land line because it came with a cell phone unit in the master control device. It was extremely reliable and operated flawlessly. Monitoring cost was $14.99 per month, otherwise most other companies charge between $40-50 per month. In my opinion, there is no better system out there for the money, and it protects as well as any system for any price.
Description of Work: Complete burglar system for around $330.

Just after that I had friends live in the house while I was away, and they did not hook up with the police dept. I can't of course say that the Simplisafe sign on the door did any good, but there were no attempted entries etc after I signed up, unlike before. When I returned I was missing a pice of the system. One call to Simplisafe and it was sent at no cost. They were also very helpful in helping me reinstall the system. I have relocated to Phoenix in the past year, and have yet to reinstall the system, (nicely portable). Since other neighbors have signs advertising their security systems I think I need to do this right away - I will have to contact Simplisafe to get a couple of new signs plus info on signing up with the local constabulary! I have not take advantage of the system I paid for, but that is no reflection on Simplisafe, who have consistently been helpful.
Description of Work: On the basis of cost, I ordered a security system, self-installed with alarm plus additional cost link to local police.
