I've had Frontpoint for two years at two residences and it is better than the other provider I used before. It worked fine, it's been accurate and it's a simple system to install which was the appealing thing about it because it was a significantly lower cost option than having security guys come out. I had three estimates from people which were a joke relative to the simplicity of the Frontpoint system. I used their interactive features but I decided I did not need that capability so we just have the basic service. The feature was free for a while and I used it and I was happy with it. I just didn’t feel like paying the extra money for it.
It is our goal to provide our customers with a system that is not only reliable but also easy to use and we are so happy to hear that you love that about us!

It's a year and a half now since we started using Frontpoint. It was pretty straightforward to install. Also, our experience with the Frontpoint team had been very good. My mom has the medic alert and the fire and carbon monoxide protection and she accidentally set it off one day. They called 911 and sent somebody out. The guy who came couldn't get it off at all so they reset it. I would recommend them.
Glad to hear that your system is working exactly how you need it to! Thanks so much for the wonderful recommendation and please let us know if there is anything we can ever do for you in the future.

I looked into other providers before but all of them had telephone lines which any smart crook could just cut. I found Frontpoint and have it for about six months now. The technician showed up and installed the device because I'm getting too old to climb a ladder. Somebody left the back door open a little bit once and I tried to arm the system and called up customer service and it worked out okay. One or two other times, I opened the door and didn't disarm the system first (my fault) and I had to call them up and tell them about that. I'm happy with it and I'm going to add more sensors soon as I get a little bit more money.

I have Frontpoint for a year or a little longer than that. My daughter, my wife and I installed the device, and it was reasonably easy. My daughter was here because she's younger and a little more techie than I am or my wife is so that was helpful. But, most people could do it. I also had a couple of calls that were made, when the alarm went off once or twice accidentally and someone called immediately. Other than that, everything was fine. Also, since installing the device, I certainly have a greater sense of security.

My interaction with the Frontpoint team has been pleasant. If the alarm goes off I get an immediate call. And if I'm not available they have the backup number. I bought the device because the house was up for sale and it had been broken into several times. It was very important for me to be able to access the system from anywhere because I was rarely home, so if I couldn't be able to do that, I would have never gotten the system. It is very reassuring that I can log on with my cell and see that my alarms were set.
We're sorry about your previous break-ins but we're glad to hear Frontpoint could provide you with the best solution.

Frontpoint is great when it works. The device was easy to install, but we've had two times now when it almost stopped working. We're unaware that there was no communication between the device and the company for a minimum of three days. Some of the times, we've been out of town and for all we knew, somebody could've gotten into our house and no one would've known about it. We should be refunded for all of the times that that happened, but I had to argue with someone in order to get a partial refund for the most recent time. We'll probably be changing carriers once we're out of our contract because apparently we're having an issue with the radio service which is Verizon and so do I on my own phone.
Emilie, please accept our sincerest apology for any inconveniences you may have experienced in regards to your system's communication.

Frontpoint is different from ADT. It's a do-it-yourself installation whereas ADT comes out and does everything for you.

We've been using Frontpoint for a year and a half now after being with Bay Alarm. I initially thought that I liked Bay Alarm better but it was because I didn't know how to use the Frontpoint system. After I filled out the online survey, somebody called me and explained the additional features so now I like it better. It was really easy to install. Their team was very friendly and not pushy when I bought the system unlike ADT. What I really liked about the guy that sold us our system was that he had no two ways about it, just how much it costs. They were also helpful when I wanted to figure out how to make the doors and windows chime and remotely turn on the silent alarm. The only thing that I don't like about the system is it still makes a loud "beep" even in silent mode. Other than that, we really like it. It's very convenient to use.

We’ve been using Frontpoint for a year and four months already. The installation went well. We had a lot of sensors. One thing that struck me was when the salesperson said that the company would monitor all the devices, and then later on when I accessed the system, they said it was limited to 10. If I go beyond that, I’d have to pay more. It wasn’t very clear to me when we were setting it up, but the setup itself was pretty straightforward.
We use the app a lot to arm and disarm the system, and it’s a great feature. The wireless aspect of the system is convenient. However, we have come across some limitations on the unit. We have a three-story house and the unit’s on the first floor, and it’s not really loud. We can hear it up clearly to the second floor. So I inquired about what we can do and there’s another unit that can be bought, but it’s additional expense and involves some configurations as well. We’re still looking into it. We've added some sensors and we're looking to add more. I'm trying to research what other features Frontpoint offers in terms of home automation.

We found Frontpoint and they seemed to have a decent deal so we went with them because of that. Installing their device was really easy. There was enough information in the instructions to do it on my own without calling but they had me call them. I got through quickly and they told me to go here and install it there then go there and install it there and then we went through and tested everything. It was quick. Also, their mobile app is great and I use it quite often.
There were a couple of issues with reinstalling when we moved to the new house but since having Frontpoint, we've had our sense of security in our home. My wife is sometimes home alone with our kids as I travel. When the alarm is on at night, when she hears a noise, she doesn’t have to get spooked because she knows that the alarm is going to go off if indeed someone is trying to come through a door, break a window, or something.

But they're not able to provide much information on the alarm and I'm hearing from many people that there are some contacts that often fall because they are just glued. When the contact falls down, the alarm goes off and it sends Frontpoint a message. At this point of time, they call you and if you know which contact fell down, it's good. If not, it's a problem.

We've used Frontpoint as our home security service provider for about a year and they have always been great about everything. When we ordered the system, the Frontpoint guy was knowledgeable and nice even though I had to call him back a couple of times and waited a month to order it before we closed escrow. Since then, they're always very helpful when it comes to putting in new devices or if there's an alarm activation.
It was easy installing our security device. We do have their mobile app and it's nice. But what was happening before was it would say "disarmed" but the system wasn't.

Since installing our Frontpoint security device, it's nice to be able to know that all the windows and doors are closed. Our garage is separate, so at night, we wouldn't hear anything if somebody was to try and get in the garage. It's nice to know that we would know that nobody’s getting in there.

We like Frontpoint so well that we have it in two houses. We waited until we saw how it worked. One is going on four years and the other is one year. My husband installed all the doors, motion and the break-in sensors. We arm and disarm via our smartphone and we get texts when batteries are low. It's great that we know what's going on in our house. We go once in a while in our house in another state. We have a house-sitter and we know when they come, how long they’ve stayed, or if they went to the back of the house. I like to know who’s in there and how long they’ve spent. The only problem is it's much more costly than other programs. There is a chance that we may switch to a different program that has the same features but for a lot lower price per month.

It's almost been two years now that we've used Frontpoint as our home security service provider. The actual installation of our security device was easy, merely figuring out where best to place it for our home and where it would be most effective. The glass break sensor was a little more complicated but that's nothing that they did wrong. It was only that the shape of our house was a little hard to accommodate.
My interactions with the team at Frontpoint were all good except for one guy who didn't have much of a personality and patience. For instance, I'd ask him a question and then, if I didn't understand it, I would say, "Can you explain that in a different way?" And he would explain it in the same exact way with the same exact words. He was not what I'd call good customer service. Moreover, I use Frontpoint's mobile app all the time and that's the best part. It's definitely convenient being able to access and control my system anytime, anywhere. Since installing our Frontpoint security device, our dogs are much safer when they're home alone. We generally feel better about leaving home without any type of issue.

I used to be a Frontpoint customer but I switched to another provider because their console or control panel is not appealing to the eye. It's a big, clunky thing with the cord hung down, and I know that there's a lot more sleeker designs now. But, installing the Frontpoint security device was super easy and they were really helpful on the line. And their interactive features are handy.
We're moving into a new house and it's an eyesore in the old house. It's also nice that the company we go with now is local. Although it's not that big of a deal, it's important for us to have somebody local and to support local businesses. However, they have their pros and cons. And, Frontpoint's customer service is extremely helpful and that's a big difference between the company I'm using now.

It was easy installing Frontpoint but there was a bunch of problems in the beginning.

Being able to access and control the system remotely is more convenient and it makes me feel more safe. I could be at school and check my house real quick. It’s a little more peace of mind.

I was researching on the internet for security systems and started reading some of the reviews and information about Frontpoint. It sounded like a pretty good system, so I thought I'd give it a shot. We got the system in around July 2014. Installation was very simple. The only criticism I would have is that they have these little sensors to detect opening and closing of doors - one on the door and one on the frame around it - however, not every door sill are flat. So I had to use a saw and Dremel tool to cut openings for some of them, to make them fit. It wasn't a real difficult thing to do but it definitely mars the appearance of the door frame.
We sold our home in January and moved. We took the Frontpoint system but I need to cancel with them since there was already a system in the house we're renting. I haven't used it for a year but I'm still making every month on it due to the set contract they have - this is one of Frontpoint's drawbacks in my opinion. I know of other systems similar to it that do not require this set contract. Hence, I'd never do Frontpoint again.

Our neighbor from across the street had a break-in, so we wanted some security for ourselves and called Frontpoint. We needed something that we could install ourselves. They were good and in our budget. It was easy installing the system. Frontpoint is our first security provider and we've had them close to a year now. It works and we're happy with it. Every time we check it, we can see if it's armed or not. I am hoping that there won't be an incident to test it.
However, I am very concerned that they go with the whole no-window thing. One of their guys said to put the alarm in the hallway and in the kitchen, but 99% of our valuables are in our bedroom. If somebody goes in through the window, they can empty our bedroom, be out of there with $40,000 worth of jewelry and we'd never know because the alarm would never go off. So one downfall of the whole system is we don't have the window sensors, which I think is important. Another thing is I didn't know there was an app available on the smartphone for arming and disarming the system. I am glad that there is one, though, because on one trip, I forgot to arm it before we got on the plane. We had to arm it when we were in New Jersey. We got online to do it. But other than that that, I'm very happy.

I did a non-standard thing where instead of installing it near an outlet, I used the existing wire of my current alarm system that was through the wall for the power, so that I could keep the power where it was on the existing alarm system, but put the head unit where the older one was.
However, when I got my system, I got one of the cameras that they supply that’s like a fully articulating wireless camera, and I don’t know if it’s necessarily Frontpoint’s fault, but the camera device that they sell is rather expensive. Plus, the applications for mobile phones at the time hadn’t been updated so it didn’t work with the latest iOS which I had. Also, the web viewer used a really old Java applet, so the client software that’s used to view the cameras is across the board, not up-to-date at all.

Also, the device has an easy installation, very friendly user interface when it comes to the control panel, and everything is ready in place and ready to go from the box so it’s pretty straightforward.
Awesome, we're glad you like everything!

I installed the Frontpoint security device myself, and it went well. Their team was very good and helpful. Since we installed the device, we feel more assured when we come home. Nothing's been taken or gone after we come back from vacation. We've had no problems with it, so we're happy.

When I set up my initial installation, I called and had a conversation with Frontpoint's rep. I told them about all the windows and entrances to my house, and he recommended what I should put a sensor on and what I shouldn't. To finish the sensors in my home would have cost me $500, so they just went as cheap as possible setting me up. Then my home was broken into. I called to tell him that my home was broken into in a window that I was told I didn't need a sensor on, and they didn't care. All they could say was, "You can get more sensors for $32 a piece." And the only thing they could offer me was a hundred-dollar credit. I had to do a lot of manual stuff to make the house feel more secure since my security system isn't very good and it costs $500 to cancel my account.

The Frontpoint security device is pretty simple and easy to install. For some reason the two-sided tapes wore out and the sensor would fall, which tripped my alarm system to go off. I had to call them then, but they were very helpful. They sent me new two-sided tapes to put on there. I usually set the alarm from my phone, and it works good. The app sometimes would freeze and it might take me two to three times to actually set it. I feel confident that I have the system at the house because I don't have to worry about my house as much. But I wish they offered more sensors as far as the different windows when I first sign up. I got three doors and the glass-breaking one. I can't remember if they offered anything for windows, but I think I should get at least three doors and three windows for how much I have to pay for it.
Nicholas, we are glad to hear that you are enjoying your system. You mention wanting window sensors and we are happy to tell you that we do offer door/window sensors! We want to make sure that you are taken care of so we are going to have one of our Support Specialists reach out to you to talk more about those window sensors and how you could set them up.

I've had Frontpoint as my home security provider for a year-and-a-half. Setting Frontpoint up wasn’t hard. I had set up security systems before so it was just learning theirs and getting familiar with the cellphone part of it. I have the app set up on my phone and the same app controls the set up in our church where I’m a minister so that’s a convenience, too.
Before, I had ADT that I'd never use again. They differ in customer service - the honesty. For Frontpoint, I get what they promised from the setup to everything. It was a little different because I bought the material and they helped me set it up versus ADT coming in and doing it. But still, the customer service is night and day. Everyone from Frontpoint that I’ve talked to has been wonderful, very customer-centric. I worked 20 years in customer service and I couldn’t be more pleased with how I’m treated and the service that I get anytime I call. It’s top of the line. I guess that’s why they got their rating the way it is.
Having a security system is something. We moved to a new neighborhood. We didn’t know our neighbors at the time. The primary reason that I got it is for the fire and for the insurance. It helps with my insurance rate and it offers a sense of security. And then I’ve set up wireless cameras so I can monitor my house. And if I needed to, I could even trigger my alarm from my phone. So it’s very convenient. I have recommended Frontpoint.
We're so happy to hear that you are enjoying your system and that you are receiving excellent customer service each time you call in! Thanks so much for your wonderful recommendation and please let us know if there is anything we can ever do for you in the future!

Installing the Frontpoint device was very easy to do, although when I went over what equipment I would need to properly monitor the home, I believe that the equipment that we had discussed was very minimal. I had to go back and say, "Listen, there are too many breaches in the house that could happen that won't set off the alarm." I was able to get three more motion sensors that they sent me at the same discount when I originally signed up and that was nice of them because once you buy your equipment and then you need more equipment, you don't get the same deal; you have to pay the regular standard price versus the entry-level price. With my current alarm setup that I have, I feel that if someone breached our home, it suffices enough to be properly covered.

I saw a deal on Angie's List, did my research on Frontpoint and saw that they were a highly rated company. I tried other providers before but said they can't do it because I haven't had a pre-existing alarm system. But with Frontpoint, everything looked good. Every time I've called them, they've always been nice. They were totally understanding when I had identity theft and my credit cards got all jacked. It took me two months to reset everything because they took everything. They were cool with letting me not make a payment for almost three months until I got all my identity theft stuff straightened out.
Setting up the system, I just read the manual, which was self-explanatory. But at the same time I also talked to their customer service rep for some tests and everything's legit. Even their cellphone app works awesome. It's sweet because it's like giving somebody the key but you don't. I unlock it before they get home and once they're inside the house, I reset it to sleep mode. Since having the system for over a year, it helped a little bit. I've been broken into before so just to have an alarm system that actually works makes me feel a lot safer.

Frontpoint is very user-friendly. I dealt with customer service several times, every time I've had trouble and I needed technical support, and it's been great. They'll make sure that they test it with you. They'll check all of your things on a systemic level and they're really helpful. However, when I moved from my first house to my second house, I had a lot of trouble with updating my address. So when my alarm would go off, they would tell me they're sending police to my old address and that happened three times even though I tried to update my address several times.
I tried to update my secondary contact phone number several times and that took a while so my friend was getting called in the middle of the night if my alarm was accidentally set off. Every time I talked to them, they were nice but there's so many mistakes. This is not safe and this isn't good service. I really like the people and I just hope that they can improve some things.

It's stable and it always works, so it's absolutely a great feature. It was one of the selling points for a new system. I feel a lot more secure. It's one of those things where if I'm at home by myself and I hear a noise, I can turn it on. The few times I've triggered it by accident or have forgotten to turn it off in the morning before I open the garage door, their responsiveness and follow-up with me, knowing that it's constantly being monitored, have been great.

Negatives - My install didn't go well. Took a lot of time (over several days) to install. Had to drill holes for some door sensors. Bad battery in the console - it was replaced. Bad Sensor - it was replaced. Pluses - The absolute Best Customer Service I've ever dealt with.

System is easy to operate. Excellent sensor coverage for my needs. Totally wireless, including the signal to the monitoring operation.
