I had gone on the internet and went to the ratings of all the security systems, and Frontpoint came in number one. I have them for a year and a half now and I am very happy. I had Ackerman before and Frontpoint is much better because of a couple of things. The Ackerman was hardwired into the windows and doors. Thus, when I needed new windows, that was a problem. Also, their equipment was pretty antiquated. It's 19 years old.
With Frontpoint, I can put them where I wanna put them. The way it is now is we're replacing the windows in the house with newer, nicer, lighter windows that are heat-resistant and so forth, all we need in the house during daytime besides something on the doors is motion detectors inside and a water detector down in the basement. I feel that I like the luxury of being able to change it when I need to do it and being able to add stuff on as new things come out. We can move things around if we need to. If I move out to another house, I can take or leave it with me. I can add things when I want it. Nothing had to be serviced. Plus the process of installing the device was really easy, it was just stick and paste.
The guy that I talked to on the phone was very friendly, knowledgeable. 20 years ago, I spent a year selling security systems for a company called Rollins. He sensed right away that I had some idea of what was going on, he didn't talk down to me. I had a feeling that if he needed to make it simpler for somebody, he couldn't done it easily. I got to get back in touch with him because I wanna get some of their flyers because I can I'm an insurance agent. I have people come in my home office all the time and I like to be able to hand out flyers and refer Frontpoint to them.

I got rid of my previous home security provider because they could not provide me with wireless service. They use AT&T and we get no AT&T signal where we live. I got Frontpoint and setting it up was relatively easy. I also like their interactive features which I use a lot. Their team has always been professional, too. I feel safer and my experience with Frontpoint has been free of complications.

It’s been six months since I got Frontpoint as home security provider. It's a little bit of additional security. Installing the device was simple. We’ve used arming and disarming through the phone a couple of times and it's nice and convenient. I’ve called and the reps have been helpful.

I looked up online different security companies and Frontpoint had the most stars for several different reasons so I went with them. Installation was really simple. I followed the directions and only took an hour to put it all together. The representatives were very helpful and friendly. The system has gone off a few times. All those times were due to a mistake I made when I was arming or disarming it. Response was pretty quick. The only thing I noticed is when you contact the police, the police don't necessarily respond right away. So if there was somebody burglarizing me they'd be there and gone. But other than that I haven't had any problems. It's all been good so far. It's easy to arm or disarm the system using my phone. I may add a few more cameras and another sensor for opening of doors.

I have been very satisfied with Frontpoint. My mom turned the system on and off from her phone several times when my brother-in-law or my sister needed to get in. Their reps were pretty good for the most part, although I was a little confused. I am a referral and was told that both the person who referred and I would get a free month of service. I was told I was gonna get mine in August but it didn’t happen in August. I’m not sure if it did happen after that. I contacted the original salesperson who said that I need to contact somebody else but it’s just the same thing. But that's the only problem that I’ve really had.

There was an attempted break-in at our home and an actual break-in at our neighbor’s home. I told my husband the day we found out about the break-in to get a security system. He did a lot of research and found Frontpoint. We ordered everything online and installed it ourselves and the process was very easy. We've had it since July of last year. When we first got it, we had a trial period where we could arm and disarm the system using a mobile phone and we loved it. So far, everyone from Frontpoint that we dealt with has been great.

Frontpoint gives me peace of mind because my husband’s not home. We don’t always use it but when we wanna use it it's nice to have it. The installation was very easy and it was easy to get Frontpoint on the phone if we had questions. At first, they didn’t send me the right amount of window sensors. I called to let them know but they were gonna try and charge me for more, which was upsetting. But they ended up sending me one which was fine.

I’ve had Frontpoint for about a year now. I used ADT before and Frontpoint is much better. It was extremely easy installing the system. Everything was in the box and directions were easy to follow. I didn’t have a problem. I called the team and they were very helpful. I didn’t have any problems. I like the fact that I can add on whatever I want to and all I have to do is order it. When I originally got the system I didn’t have the smoke and fire detector. A few months ago, I ordered that and put it up myself. I just called to have it activated. It was very simple. Maybe I’ll just try to do another one or maybe I’ll just try to get a sensor for my garage door in the future.

Since the installation of my Frontpoint device, I felt a little safer and more confident that if there was a burglary, the police would be coming. One time, I accidentally didn't close a door and set the alarm and left. They called me within seconds of the alarm going off. Then another neighbor who was letting our dog out didn't deactivate the system correctly, and again, when the alarm was sounding, they called me within seconds. Their response time is great. Also, I like that I can control the system from anywhere at any time.

I have Frontpoint for a year now . Installing the security device was quick and trouble-free. Everything went as planned. I tried the interactive features and they're easy to use, except that maybe the user interface could be more friendly. I don’t think it displays the entire history of events. There are differences between the mobile app and the web interface, which made the mobile app a little less feature-full.

Device installation was easy. The only problem I've ever really had is when my control panel went out it took two weeks for the whole problem to be resolved. They had to send out new control panels, sensors and a new motion detector. But after it got fixed, it was okay. I use their interactive features all the time and I like it a lot. I feel safer with Frontpoint.

I had a different security provider for a very short time but it didn't work properly and then I canned them. I have two homes on Frontpoint's system right now. They both interface with my smartphone. It seems cutting edge to me. Their team was totally friendly and very helpful. I've had nothing but good interactions with them. I've had some issues with some of my sensors. They just kept trying to fix it rather than replace it. I finally insisted they sent me sensors and since then, they haven't given me any problems. They're an adequate company and I'm very pleased with them.
Being able to access my system anytime and anywhere is comforting. Having the device installed makes me feel safer. Some people stole some of my stuff before and I was right there in the house. I got a detached garage. And at night, I wouldn’t know if they broke into there or not ‘cause it’s not my living area. I don't live under the fear of somebody breaking into my house because I have weapons. But still, if I'm not near the weapon at the right time, the Frontpoint device can alert me to go to it. It's especially great when out of town. I have peace of mind that at least the property is secure. The police in the area would get there before someone run off with my stuff. It helps on our insurance, too.

Somebody broke into my neighbor's house and they put Frontpoint. I asked where they got the system and I got all the information from them. I installed Frontpoint in my house and now I feel much safer and can sleep much better. However, I have a minor problem. I installed it upstairs and downstairs and a tenant living downstairs keeps triggering the alarm. I don't know how to disconnect them. I just want the alarm upstairs and not downstairs because every time they open the door, they trigger it as it's all hooked up. Because of that, I have to unhook it sometimes when we're not there. But other than that, Frontpoint is awesome.

I've had Frontpoint for almost a year now. There was a problem with two of the sensors when I was installing the device so I had to swap them out a couple of times. But outside of that, the process was easy. Setting the sensors was self-explanatory. Also, the Frontpoint team was really friendly and helpful and they got things taken care of relatively quickly. The smartphone app is cool. If I forget, I can check and see it it's armed or disarmed but sometimes it doesn't connect. I guess it depends on where I'm at or that might have to be my phone. I live in a nice neighborhood so I wasn't too worried before. I got home security more so for my wife and kids. I feel a little more secure that there's an alarm system in place if I'm not around or if I'm out of town on business. It's a great experience and it's simple and easy to use.

I'm well satisfied with Frontpoint's service. Everything went just as they promised. The installation, the whole nine yards, is right down the letter like they have described and I was able to install the security device for about 45 minutes. Their team has been absolutely friendly and knowledgeable. For the first two months, they were constantly staying in touch. Like any good company, after a couple of months of making no complaints, now they don’t bother anymore unless I have a question. Being able to control the system through my smartphone is absolutely a good feature. If you get down the road and say, "Did I turn it on?", you can look. I feel more secure having the system and I hope it's not a false security. My wife and I are old and we depend on the security system but I still want to be alert. We haven’t had a break-in, so it's still unknown how effective it is.

I like Frontpoint a lot better than ADT which I've used before because Frontpoint works off of a cell phone and ADT works off of landline. The security system is in my barn in Allen, Nebraska and I'm normally in Arizona so I arm and disarm it using my cell phone. I've also used their app and it's fine. Installing the device was easy and took me about 20 minutes. I had a little issue where I put the motion sensors in a bad spot, but that was my fault.

Frontpoint's customer service was very good as far as answering all the questions. But I would compare the experience with buying with them to buying a car, where if you tell them no, it keeps going lower and lower. I would say, "Is that your best offer?" "Well, yeah. That's our best offer." And I said, "Okay. Well, I'm going with ADT." And it's, "Oh, we can give you another $5 off on this and we can give you the installation for free, or we can..." It's not a bad thing but it was interesting.
Having their interactive features, on the other hand, is good. I've had a couple of times that my brother-in-law would come in and freak out my code. I've been able to disarm it when he would text me saying that he just triggered my alarm off. I could do it very quickly from away. The only thing I wish that Frontpoint had is a home kit integration. I'm very much into the Apple ecosystem and I wish I could tell Siri to arm my system. I wish you could voice activate it. Apart from that, it's easy to set up and they have good customer service. I would recommend it.

Frontpoint is our first security system in this house that we’ve been in for five years now. It’s been a year and a half that we've used the system. Installing the Frontpoint devices was really easy for the most part. We use different security devices depending on the area of our house. We are on their mobile feature too and the only thing we don’t have is the cameras. We are at the second highest level of service. We use our phones to deactivate, to activate, and to monitor. It's great and I like it.
The only thing I’m thinking about is the cameras and that’s the area where Frontpoint could be a little better, having those cameras interactive with the actual system. Once the system is armed and if the camera shows something suspicious, the camera should also activate an alarm. But their camera is not interactive right now and I understand it would be problematic because the camera can’t tell whether a person lives there or not.
I’m overall quite happy with Frontpoint and I would definitely recommend it to a friend. It's a little pricier than some of the other ones, but it’s worth it. Customer service is really important and Frontpoint seems to stand behind their product. I bargained with them a bit to try to get more sensors. I got quite a bit. There’s always room now to expand with the cameras and that’s my next step. Also, we called their staff when there was a false alarm and they were very proactive. I’ve been very impressed with their response.

I'm not that good at technical stuff but installing the Frontpoint security device was surprisingly easy. Customer service helped me set up what I needed for my home and helped me make decisions on whether I needed stuff or if I should get the latest monitor, so I didn't get too much stuff. They made everything easy for me and I can see why the company got high grades online.
I use the app more than the panel itself. I can arm the system on the way out the door and disarm it before I can get home. I can also check to make sure the system's on from my phone. My wife definitely feels better since the system was installed. I was almost tempted to go with another company that would install the system for me but I was convinced that Frontpoint was really easy to do and they were right. So from the purchase to the installation, up to when I've called in with questions and Frontpoint answered quickly, I would highly recommend Frontpoint to anybody. I've been very happy.

We have Frontpoint as our home security service provider for a year and got the doors and the motion which are common to what normal people do. It was good up until the point with the motion detector that my daughter hit it off the wall because it has to be 5 feet. So it’s not very kid friendly but it’s fine and not a big deal. I am unhappy with the team over at Frontpoint though. We don’t use the smart mobile app at all and I called to cancel that because I'm spending $10 extra a month for that feature. They said if I cancel that, then that would take away the smash-and-grab feature of the unit as well. It’s really ridiculous but I’ve already signed the contract so I’m stuck with it for three years. I feel like if I want to cancel a feature, that should just be a basic feature, and should not be coupled together.

I didn't really care about having a home security device before since I was just in an apartment but now that I’ve actually bought my place, it seems like a good thing. Frontpoint's staff is always professional and easy-going. In doing the installation, I remember the guy on the phone being positive with energy and it was easy and straightforward. The only tricky stuff was one of these motion sensors. However, I haven’t used too much of the app mostly because I’m afraid of setting it off. Usually I check it just to see when certain doors have been opened. It’s good to know I got it not because I live in a dangerous place but in terms of the investment.

When I first got the Frontpoint system, the panel that they sent me looked used and dirty. I told the reps and they sent me another panel a few days after. The only thing with installing the system is they should label better the magnet that goes on the door as to which part needs to be facing. There were two parts that need to be pointing to each other. I had installed a couple of sensors and at first it wouldn't activate. It took me a while to figure out what I was doing wrong. The reps were helpful when I wanted to add a smoke detector. I called and they sent me one. I use their interactive feature on my phone all the time. I like it because whenever I leave home and forget to set the alarm, I can set it up and don't have to worry about going back. So far, it does what it needs to do and I'm happy with it.

I'm extremely satisfied with Frontpoint. We haven't had anybody trying to break in, but a couple of times we moved our system from one location to another, I did something and set the alarm off. We had the sheriff, the fire department, and everybody came within a short period of time. We felt very bad about getting everybody coming and the deputy sheriff said, "This is a good way for you to check out your system." If the system continues to be that good, we're much more secure about leaving the place since I was telling my husband I'm a little worried when we leave it. We're in a farm so we're not along the main highway. It's far away - about 12 miles from Grand Forks so we were very impressed. We are going to install it in our house in Grand Forks this fall and again, it's out in the country a little ways, in a remote wooded area.
We didn't have any problem installing the device. The instructions were good and my husband was able to do it. It didn't take him that long and that was not a problem. I have a sister who lives near Rockford, Illinois and I keep telling her that they ought to get the system because her husband is disabled. She said she couldn't install it but I assured her she could.

Frontpoint was quick to respond to my feedback and offered me a very acceptable resolution. They do have some of the best equipment and technology on the market today as well as very helpful technicians who are always available to answer questions and concerns.

I was getting ready to move into my house and I needed an alarm so I thought Frontpoint would be a good option as I liked their pricing. I'm very good with electronics so I didn't have problems installing the device. The sensors I first got were only a couple which was fine considering the price they gave me. I called them in to get two more to cover the windows that were hidden away. They said they would give me half off out of three door and window sensors, but that's still pricey for my price range. When I had false alarms, the doors made a crack or the wind pushed them open, their reps were quick to call me which was good. I’ve used the mobile app and online. Since this past year, they have been updating their online site and I've been looking at it. I can change my account which makes it more convenient.

I love Frontpoint. I already have them for almost a year and they are amazing. I’ve experienced ADT and some of the other ones and they think they’re all that and a bag of chips but their customer service doesn’t even come close to the light that Frontpoint shines. During the installation of the security device, they held our hand, virtually, over the phone and helped us to set everything up. When I called first, the gentleman I spoke with said “You don’t need all these when there’s sensors. You can just have a window breaker.” I had no clue that it existed. It’s been great overall. I do the app on my phone. Sometimes, when we run out of the house and we’re like, “Oh, we forgot to set the alarm.” The way the app was set makes it very easy to use quickly and do what you need to do and get off. It’s very user-friendly.
We've had fewer worries since the system was installed. Our house is about 28 years old and the lady decided that before we move in, she painted all the windows shut. We’ve been fully trying to crack the seal and break them open and it’s been twice now that we left and we accidentally left the little latch unlocked and Frontpoint called us immediately. It was like, “What do you mean something’s wrong? Like which sensor?” Then they told us, “It’s the window.” And we’re like, “Oh, the window just finally broke open.” It’s a really nice sense of relief because it’s nice that they called us immediately and tried to call both of us. Overall, it was a relaxing and carefree experience.

I always arm or disarm my system through my phone and have used the actual panel three or four times. Their reps were very friendly, knowledgeable and I was pleasantly surprised. However, the three-year contract was not something that I liked very much. I actually canceled this contract because my fiance and I consolidated houses and I moved all my remaining months to his house who is also a user of Frontpoint. Not forcing people into three-year contracts is something that I would change. But Frontpoint was exactly what I wanted from a security systems company.

When I lived in Memphis, Frontpoint took care of my bedroom where my dog stays. I have a camera in there and I use the mobile app so I can check in on her. I love that feature. If I forget to arm the system, it sends me a text message alert. However, I moved and my system is not working properly and I've been upset about it. My door is too far away from the panel to pick up the sensor all the time. Finally, after calling about seven times, I talked to someone and they sent me a long-range sensor that’s supposed to be able to pick up better. I just got it in the mail and I was going to set it up this morning but I didn’t have time to call them and ask them for directions to do so.
Frontpoint is affordable in terms of the product that you purchase. The camera is only $100 and the sensors are only $35. The monthly coverage is a lot more expensive. It's $20 more than ADT but the service and the quality is better. It’s worth the extra money you pay. Additionally, the reps have always been very nice when I call.

The installation of the Frontpoint device was difficult. I had my son here to help me who’s six foot tall. And then I went through three faulty units that were new touchscreens.

I also had to do a lot of the work myself, like take the panels off, take out all the wires off and then reattach them. It was a lot of troubleshooting which was a waste of my time. However, they assured me that if it happened again, which would be the fifth time, that they would release me from my contract. But so far so good.

I called Frontpoint a couple of times. One time was because it wouldn’t go off right. The rep walked me through fixing one of the doors closer together and after I did that, everything was fine. On another time, I wanted to find out if there was any way that I could turn it on ‘cause I forgot. Every time I have to call, everybody’s been nice. I highly recommend them to anybody because it’s easy to use. I’m in my 70s, my husband’s in his 80s, and it was easy for us to set it up ourselves.

The house already has all the sensors installed and I set up the main panel. The Frontpoint reps are super friendly, very courteous and responsive. Even when I sent them email, they'd call me back to see if they can assist me in a better way. I really like their customer service. I use the alarm.com app on my phone and on the computer I use their website which is also based on the alarm.com site and it’s awesome. We close and open the door, arm and disarm the system and check out all the sensors from our phone or the computer. When we are away, it’s also very helpful to have the peace of mind.

The sales guy and everyone else at Frontpoint were helpful. I use their app every day, and it's the only reason I have the system. The only issue is that sometimes there’s too long a delay in the wireless system. The wireless side of it is not impressive, like we’d be better off running wires because of the delay. I’d rather spend 10 hours one day running wires than finding out that we have a system that doesn’t work one day. The margin of error should not be part of my concerns.

Frontpoint has been really quick to answer whenever I have had any problems. Our experience was good so far. Installing their device was basically peel and stick so it was no big deal and their reps walked me through the password setup. They were courteous and patient. I have a little bit of interactive feature on the keypad but I’m more concerned that it works when the door or window is open. So far, Frontpoint is serving its purpose. My house got broken into before and this is the reason why I have the security system. Having an alarm system will help deter people from trying it.

It was easy to install my Frontpoint device. It's also convenient to have their app. But Frontpoint is a little behind the mark with some of their competitors, like with AT&T, in terms of what they offer. They don't offer a camera within a package, so you actually have to buy the camera and it's expensive, so I'm not as satisfied with them for that reason.

When I was in California I had no way to know if I was safe. I don’t know the neighbors but I have one who knows everything that’s going on in and around the perimeter of my house. When I come home, she goes, “Did you get the package on your porch?” Sometimes, I would wake up in the morning and she has been digging up my yard for a flower garden. She wanted to cut down trees and I told her not to. I finally had to write her a letter to say there are consequences to trespassing. She’s backed off and I don’t worry about her anymore. Now I’m caught in a contract with Frontpoint.
I've had the system since September and just moved here in Washington last January. Since having the system, I haven’t felt that I wasn't safe here. During installation, my first thoughts were, “I don’t want to do this. Why don’t they do it?” But it was really simple and they walked me through it.

My family uses Frontpoint and I've had it for a year now. We have it in bedrooms and downstairs as those areas are high priority security areas in our home.

We definitely feel safer having it. If we hear a noise, we don't worry about it.
There's only one negative thing about Frontpoint. We are moving and we wanted to keep our service, but had to buy new equipment because we were going to leave the equipment here for the people and they told us don't do that. Ultimately, I had to pay out the rest of the contract or have the people who would take over the house to pay out the contract.

I put the sensor first and it fell down and broke. Frontpoint needs to make it better. Vivint was better about that sensor. I can screw them on and they don’t fall.

Frontpoint provides a good service, but their contracts are bogus. I moved from one location to another and we’re not allowed to put the actual alarm system up in my new location. It's locked into a contract and I can’t use it. The whole system is in a box in a corner. I talked to Frontpoint and they said I have to be a military only to discontinue a contract. Other than that, I have to give it to a family member or to someone. It was craziness.
I've used Frontpoint for four months and I set up the device myself at the first location. I loved them when I was at my old place. It was awesome and great customer service. I enjoyed the system while I could use it. But if I’m in a situation where I can no longer use it due to moving, Frontpoint has to be able to adjust. It would have also been better customer service if they said there has to be a way to get out of the contract. But it's frustrating because when I rang them up, it was, “You can’t get out the contract. You do not know how to use it.” It should be enough that I have showed them that I moved and not have to get into the detail of where I moved.

Frontpoint is better than AT&T. It has given me a whole lot less expenses and if something goes wrong with any of the equipment, I can just replace it myself.

Installation was real easy.
I like pushing the button when arming or disarming the system, but the only way that Allen does it is through the computer or phone. It works really well for Allen. My only complaint is Frontpoint doesn't make a front panel that can be battery-operated. It's actually plugged in.

I went with Frontpoint because at every level on every scale, it exceeded by a lot the provider I had before. Their people showed up when they were supposed to. They were completely professional. They got the system installed and answered any questions I had. I’ve gotten some alerts on my phone, and having that is really important. Their salesperson was really good and was not a high-pressure salesman. They weren’t trying to pin me to the wall and shove a pen in my mouth and say sign. I had some unique settings I wanted to set up and they were able to accommodate me. They’re a little bit more expensive than some other companies around right now. But I have security to hopefully save my life and if I’m ever in danger, I have adequate security to make sure I’m not. So I’m paying a little bit more to be with them than some others, but the value is there.
The weakest thing about Frontpoint is their sign. I can’t use it in my front yard because it’s poorly designed and can’t be used outside, which is too bad because I’m not letting anybody know that I have them. The sign was absolute garbage and it wouldn’t work. It’s supposed to be a sealed cardboard but it was really flimsy and small. And it was supposed to fit on this little plastic stake they had, and the plastic stake is not effective in an outdoor environment. Also, the opening where you’re supposed to attach the sign was not adequate. They might want to look around at their competition and see what kind of signs other people have. It’s worth the money to invest in a slightly better sign.
One of the things that concerns me as far as a safety issue is we have the ability with a little panic button they provide to put in a signal that we’re in serious trouble. It has its own code. But Frontpoint's service is set up so that even if they receive that, they have to attempt to call my cellphone and wait for me to answer and tell them that “Yes, I’m in danger,” before they can respond and send a unit. In the event of that, I would already be dead. That bothers me that when they provide a panic service, that that is an automatic "send the police". And I found that out accidentally. It was something I learned after and that’s a real weakness in the service. Because if I actually use the panic button, if I’m actually called upon to need to do that, then for response to wait for them to call my cellphone and then wait to send police is dangerous. I would really like something about that resolved.

Have had Frontpoint for about two years. Last year while we were away, the smoke detector went off. The fire department had to break into our home to check for fire. The smoke detector was at fault. Later that year, the alarm started going off for no reason. This time it was the battery in the main unit (which has always been plugged in). That make both of the problems related to inferior equipment. Now the system is saying that the front door is open. Everything is the same with that sensor as it has been since it was installed. According to Darius ** the problem is with the installation (which has not changed in two years) or there is now something in the house that is messing with the sensor. Since they have no service people, they just sit in their office and tell me it is something that I have done.

I switched to Frontpoint because I was not happy with my previous home security provider. It didn't have a glass breakage which was one of the things that I really wanted. Now, I feel more confident with Frontpoint since the installation. It's been good so far.
We're glad that your system is giving you greater peace of mind! Thanks for sharing your experience and don't hesitate to reach out to us if you need anything in the future!

I went online and looked up a study that an independent person had done comparing all the different security company that you could purchase from and all the pros and cons and that's how I learned about Frontpoint. Installation was super easy. And when I had a little issue where my husband installed one thing at the wrong door and we didn't know that, and they were able to identify that very quickly. Interaction with them was great. Moreover, we feel definitely safer since having the system. I use their interactive features through phone or the computer all the time and it's also great and very easy. You know immediately what's going on at home. Frontpoint has been perfect.
It's great to hear that our Support Team was able to help during you installation and that your system makes you feel safer! Thank you for taking the time to share you thoughts and don't hesitate to reach out to us if you need anything!

Our previous provider was extremely expensive and they didn’t provide the same level of services that Frontpoint did, so we made the change. The installation was self-explanatory with the information that was provided. I had a few questions and I had a good response from them. I installed the fire detection system in close proximity to the kitchen oven so if I open the oven and there was a little bit of smoke, the alarm system would go off. It's a lot more sensitive than we’d had anticipated. We relocated the sensor and haven’t had any false alarms since. Also, one morning, I went out to get the newspaper and forgot to neutralize the alarm and it went off and the police showed up in the driveway. The response was very quick so I have praise for both Frontpoint and my local police department. So far, we’re very happy with their services. I shared my experience with a friend and showed him how easy it was to set the system up.

We just crossed the year mark in being with Frontpoint and we've been very satisfied with them, especially with their customer service. When you call, you've always got somebody on the line who can help you and walk you through any issues. It was simple to install the device. We use the interactive features all the time with our phone. I love having that kind of access to our system, because if we left the house and not armed it, we can just do this on the way wherever we're going.
We're so excited to see that the Smart Phone app is making your system easy to use! Thanks for the feedback!

Frontpoint had good customer reviews. I can install it myself and I could take it with me when I leave. I have it for a little bit less than a year now and so far it's been awesome. It's very easy to install and use plus they give quick customer service. Also, my iPhone alerts me of any problems so it's really good. I like it so much I recommended it to my friend who moved and she also loves it. She was able to install it herself too.

My whole experience with Frontpoint was fine. We hired an electrician to come and install the device. We have had some difficulty with false alarms with the internet. We've had that five times, so that's been a bit of a concern to us but Frontpoint offered a resolution as to why it keeps activating falsely.
We're so sorry to hear about those false alarms, however, we are glad to see that our Support Team was there to help you. Thanks so much for sharing your experience and please let us know if you ever need anything going forward, as we are always here and happy to help you!

Frontpoint was at the top, if not within the first five for a lot of the different online reviews. I had no problem at all with it, except that I had to order two additional times from them because I didn't plan it out well enough myself. I have it set up where they draw my payment from my Visa card. The Visa card number got stolen on two different occasions and I had to have new cards issued and both times forgot that they automatically draw. They ended up calling and wondering if I was having trouble paying. But it was just that I had to have a new Visa card. Even throughout all of that, they were very cordial, polite, and professional. They seemingly know what they're talking about and took care of me immediately. I can't sing enough high praise for them all the way around.
All of our customers deserve a great experience and we're glad to see that yours has been no different. Thanks for the great rating!

I have never even been able to use my Frontpoint security device. The equipment is inadequate and the sensors are not staying. I had the door sensor fall off my front glass door. I can’t find the little magnet that came with it so I can’t even turn on the system. I had contacted them before and they gave me another number. Then what ended up happening was that the sensor fell off the wall and I had moved it and it went off. We couldn’t figure out how to shut the thing off. So they called and gave a phone number. I work odd hours and I never wrote the phone number down.
I went to the internet and got an address where I can write and let them know. I’m pretty sure they can see that the system was never activated for the whole year. I was gonna try to get out of the contract with them because it’s a waste of money. I pay $44 every month and for what? I’m totally dissatisfied, so I'm going to sue my contract and see what I could do from there. They sent me a sticky tape to fix the problem and the problem was not fixed. I’m just paying for a system that I’m not even using. I will not recommend it to anyone. I'd rather go ahead and pay for the system to be installed and monitored through someone else.

Recently found out that Frontpoint Security has the incorrect address linked to my alarm system. I've had my alarm system for 1 yr and 7 months now. I signed the contract virtually through an email while on the phone with a customer service representative. Somehow the address was incorrect and no one knew until my alarm went off one night and the Police Officer was dispatched to the wrong location!!! The customer representative had no explanation for how the police officer was dispatched to the incorrect address or how Frontpoint had the wrong address.
I can't believe I have been paying and LOCKED MYSELF INTO A 36 MONTH CONTRACT with a NEGLIGENT COMPANY which provided me with NO ALARM for 19 months. I leave my home and set up my alarm yet I have had NO PROTECTION for 19 months. The customer service representative offered me 1 month fee waive out of 19 months. This is absolutely unacceptable. This Company has failed to provide proper Home Security. I will fight this until I am compensated 100%.

We are very surprised to read some of the details you are describing in your review as they are far from the typical Frontpoint experience that we aim to provide all of our customers.

I got Frontpoint installed last summer and once, I accidentally tripped the system. My wife and I had it located in a different area and we came in through the garage and we forgot we had it set. By the time we could disarm it, we'd already gotten a call from Frontpoint on the cellphone. We gave our password and it was all good. Very quick response. We were still standing there and just gotten the alarm off when the phone rang. So, all in all, the customer service is excellent and the system was what we needed. It's working out very well for us.

Frontpoint have more features per price than ADT, my previous provider. The set up over the phone ordering the stuff was easy. I was pretty upfront about everything in the cost because that was my main thing. They brought down a different thing more than what I was getting at ADT. Also, I can access the system anytime which is awesome. Putting the device up is so easy and simple, too. Their staff were very helpful because it was operating a different system for some reason. There were little quirks in between but they stayed on the phone throughout the entire time of set up.
We're very grateful that you chose us to be your new service provider! It also makes happy that your Smart Phone App is making the system more convenient for you! Thank you for the feedback and remember, if you need us, we're only one call away!

My home insurance company wanted me to have a security system in place. I have Frontpoint for about a year now and they're very professional. They shipped the package and I installed it myself.

My home is a two-storey house, and the living room, bedrooms, dining room, kitchen and all of the downstairs areas needed to be protected more so than the upstairs. Installing the device was easy. I only had one issue, but it wasn’t Frontpoint’s fault. The gap between the sensors was too far from the door and the door frame, so they sent me up some spaces to fill that gap. And then everything seems to work well. I've got the mobile app on my computer and I’ve also got it on my phone, and it’s nice to be able to set the system when you’re away. I went away recently and actually used the app because I forgot to set it before I left. That worked out timely.
But I have been a little concerned. We had one time where the alarm went off by accident, but I was expecting that phone to say “Hey" and there was no phone call. I don’t know if Frontpoint had a grace period that I don’t know about ‘cause we turned it off within 20 seconds of it going off. But nobody called, and someone should have called to confirm that that was a false alarm. I’m looking online and they have a lot of other good services. They’ve dropped their rates considerably so it’s gonna be a concern next time when the contract’s up. I might be looking for somebody else that’s doing the same thing for a lot less money.
Andrew, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us. The industry standard is that all alarm systems have a 30 second dialer delay before calling. This is set in place to avoid false alarms and potential false alarm fines. We hope this information allows you to have a little more peace of mind and ask that you please let us know if there is anything we can ever do for you in the future.

I've used Frontpoint since I bought the house last year. I had ADT back in New York. The only difference between the two is that ADT is wired versus Frontpoint which has newer technology and has the touchscreen. I also am able to monitor the security system through my Frontpoint phone app. Installation was quick and simple. Once I got to the monitor, I was able to call their customer support who guided me through all the installation steps. The customer support was knowledgeable and very courteous. The phone app tells me when somebody opens the door or if I need to close it if it's left open. At night I sometimes forget to arm the alarm and because I have the monitor on my first floor, I do it through my phone from the second floor. It's very convenient and a lot easier. I can do it myself.
Because of my small kids, I have more peace of mind knowing that I have something that I can alert if there is an intruder or even if I forget to leave the door open. But I would've liked to have a lower monthly cost. Other security companies offer a lower price with touch screen monitors too but because I'm tied into a three-year contract with Frontpoint I couldn't do that right now. But overall, I would no doubt recommend Frontpoint.
It's great that the cellular technology and smart phone app suit your needs! We appreciate you sharing your feedback with us and ask that you call us if you ever need anything!

We had to install the Frontpoint system on our own but it was really easy and the instructions were clear. The person we spoke to on the phone walked us through everything step-by-step. We've had a few false alarms but the Frontpoint staff members were responsive, friendly and patient with us when we had to provide our password. They only want to make sure that it's really us who are on the phone.

I have a couple of our friends in our area who use Frontpoint and they'd liked it. They told me about how easy it was to put Frontpoint where they want them and truly it was very simple. Then when I got one of my doors replaced, I called the Frontpoint team to let them know and they’ve sent me a couple of extra sensors. I’ve done the arming in the app with my cell phone and it’s definitely something. Obviously in this day and age where everything is going off our phone, I have that at my fingertips as well. It’s nice, especially when we go away and we’re off, it is easy to check in using that app.
We've had Frontpoint for about a year and since its installation, I definitely have a little sense of being safer. I know this alarm is more on warding off anyone who might come in rather than my safety. It’s one of those things like a house insurance, especially when we’re young and we’re striving the need to be paying this. But then when we actually need it, it’s better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. My Frontpoint experience has been very easy and it’s out of sight because I don’t think about it often. Nevertheless, it's an easy routine. When we go out, we turn it on. When we come back, we turn it off. When we go to bed, we turn it on.

I don’t use the home security alarm too much and I'm thinking if I should look at other options. Customer service is good but I don’t like the fact that Frontpoint is still tethered and then I have a wireless device. It’s also easy to fall off and not very robust.
