Everywhere in the house is top priority when it comes to security. When I set it up in one of our areas, it was hard to get the connection so we had to make the modifications to change the wireless version to the wired one. During my interactions with the Frontpoint team, the guys were helpful. Frontpoint is easy to use and is worth the money.
Glad to hear it!

A friend of mine referred Frontpoint and it's been about 8 months since we had them. Customer service has been great. They are always helpful and friendly. The installation was simple and the system's interactive feature is a good thing to have. It makes everything easy. I'm more comfortable now that I have them.
Great! Glad to hear that.

We’ve had a problem installing Frontpoint’s window sensors, and when we open the windows, one of the little sensors pops up. It’s the width of the magnet, and so when we open the window, we have to be careful that those don’t pop up. We also had trouble with their app, since we couldn’t tell if it was working or not, so I don’t use it anymore. However, their team provided my husband with good install instructions, and he was happy with it. I’m also comfortable with the Frontpoint system, and I’m also happy to have it. There isn’t anything to complain about. It works, and that’s all we want. I’d recommend them.
Happy to hear that we were able to help you get setup! Thanks for your feedback and please let us know if you ever need anything in the future.

I've used Frontpoint for about a year or so and I'm happy with them. The whole process was easy, but I was frustrated about putting all the little sticky things up by myself because it was hard. I guess I'm lazy and didn't want to be the one doing that part. Other than that, everything was smooth and it did work fine. When I got the box, there were some wires that popped loose in the back. I didn't even know what they were, but the people from Frontpoint walked me through taking the back off that thing and reattaching some wires somewhere. So that went okay. There was also one time when the fire alarm went off and they called me. My husband had done something stupid and it wasn't a real fire. But the fire smoke alarm worked and we're fine.
I had the opportunity to try a Frontpoint interactive feature too but chose not to take it. Personally, I don't like a lot of apps on my phone so an app from my home security isn't on my list of things to do. However, all the ways into my house are top priority when it comes to security. Right after I put in my Frontpoint device, I felt more secure. But I don't dwell on my home security so I don't think about it anymore. Overall, I was happy with the experience.
Exactly, leave it to us to worry about your home's safety and rest peacefully knowing we've always got your back! Glad to see you're enjoying everything.

The whole process of Frontpoint is just superb - from asking questions in the very beginning to installing the product. Everything I’ve dealt with the Frontpoint team is outstanding. Any questions I’ve ever had, they’ve answered them thoroughly. Frontpoint is a fantastic company, they are highly recommended.
Thank you for all those kind words!

I did research on the web about security devices, and chose Frontpoint’s services since ADT has really out-marketed themselves, and the more they get their devices out there, it’s easier for people to think out ways to disable them. So far, my Frontpoint experience has been great. We put our devices in ourselves, and got it up in 20 minutes.
We accidentally set the alarm off one morning, and their reps called us right up. I forgot my code, so I told them a different one that I could remember, and she thanked me, then hung up. I thought I got the code right, and the next thing I know, the cops were knocking at the door saying they got a call from Frontpoint. They came in, and made sure who we were. I called Frontpoint and told them I gave the wrong code, but the rep remembered what it was, so we know what the code is now and we won’t make that mistake anymore. I also feel safe with the protection that we’ve got, and we’ve been thinking about a camera but we need the price to come down a bit since we can’t afford it out. Other than that, I’d definitely recommend Frontpoint to anyone.

We had ADT before and we definitely like Frontpoint better. Our top priority for security are the living room, dining room, kitchen area and the windows going upstairs. Installation was simple and the people from the company are always very polite and helpful. However, I wish that the alarm sounded much louder than it does. If we're upstairs we wouldn't possibly hear if someone was coming in. But overall, they're easy to deal with and they're good for what we pay. I feel fine and secure having Frontpoint. We're really happy with it and I would definitely recommend them.
Carol, we have some pretty cool news for you! There are outdoor and indoor z-wave sirens that you can add onto your system at any time in case you feel that your main control isn't loud enough for you. We'll have someone reach out to you shortly to give you more information on that!

All areas in our homes are top priority when it comes to security. So we have Frontpoint in two of our homes: in my primary home, it's been there about two and a half years now, and in my secondary home, I've had it for about six months. Before Frontpoint, I had AT&T and from a service standpoint, they're similar. But Frontpoint has an edge because of the wireless system and I had less equipment problems with them. The installation was easier too.
Recently, I had an issue with my phone app in setting and not setting the alarm for my secondary home. Frontpoint ended up changing a piece of hardware. They mailed it to me and it worked well and smooth. It took some time, but that wasn't a problem. It’s important for me to be able to access my system all the time. Overall, I've had a good experience with Frontpoint.

We chose Frontpoint since it is using a cellular network as opposed to landline. The price was also good, and their customer service seemed to be excellent as well. Their android app, which is what we used, has never caused us any problems. It is easy and simple, and even the web interface is intuitive. We've always done it that way since day one. One of the things that I do wish that they would have included is some more sticky pieces to glue the connectors on the walls or on doors as some of those were lacking. Besides that, set up was super-easy and it's kind of walk through it. Re-branding has been a little different to go through with them because they were all orange logo and another was green tea, but I've been impressed with them overall.
We're happy to hear that our cellular technology is perfect for all your security needs! Thanks so much for sharing your experience and please don't hesitate to give us a call if you ever need any extra adhesive, as we would be more than happy to send you some.

Frontpoint's security system was easy to install and use. I didn't even have to talk to their team during the installation since I'm a techie. But it could have been better if it has the user interface (UI) - there's no UI touchscreen. I also want something which integrates with my cell phone as well as electronic systems such as the thermostat. The system's good enough and right for the price I pay, but I'm not going to go ahead with it after two years.

I've had Frontpoint for over a year. They have courteous and friendly staff and the system does what I need it to do especially for my front door and sliding back door. Installing it was straightforward - simple and with no hassles. It's also convenient that I am able to arm or disarm the device from my phone or from the webpage. I have an alert set at 10 o'clock and I get a page in case I forget to set my alarm. When I need to go out of town, I feel safer if something would happen because somebody will be here.
The only thing is the rates that they charge monthly are not very competitive to other providers offering similar service. They should consider doing something a bit more on the competitive side because there are other companies like SentrySafe who aren't tying anyone into any contract. Once my 3 year contract is up, I may be switching over to something that is cheaper granting the service is okay.
Trestian, we're glad to hear you're liking that smartphone app a lot! Keep in mind when looking at other security systems you're comparing our 100% cellular technology with the same kind of technology.

I'm in law enforcement and because of Frontpoint, I sleep better at night and I couldn't ask for any better. The system was referred by my associate's daughter. Installing it was easy, but had problem getting the sensors matched up with the door casing. But I was able to solve the issue and there was no trouble with it falling off.
The team at Frontpoint has been really good. I forgot to set the alarm one day and I walked out the side door in my garage and before I could make it through my pole about 40 yards away out there they called me on the phone. I also got their mobile app and I'm set up for all of that. It's great but it's dependent on the internet and where I live it's not always the greatest. I get Verizon Wireless to my house and the signal sometimes is not very good but I'd recommend the system of Frontpoint to anybody. It's good security and it's relatively inexpensive for 42 bucks worth of pay a month. I just wish I had a permanent wireless internet because I don't have that if I'm back in the woods and I'd like to have a camera system in there too.

Frontpoint had the best reviews online so we went with it. They sent all the products to my house and I did the installation myself - I plugged it in and attached it up everywhere. One time our alarm went off by accident and they called. When I needed a new battery, they sent it out too. So, I've been having some good success with them. I've recommended them to my friends already.

I wanted to get a security system for my new home. I did some research online on different providers - the best price range and the best service. I figured out that Frontpoint was the best for me although I had somebody who would come out from ADT, they promised they but they didn't come through with it. I've got a neighbor that has ADT and he's got number of complaints about his service. And he said when his alarm goes off, they won't respond to it. With Frontpoint, I had an incident when I was leaving my house on Friday and the alarm went off twice and they called and wanted to check and see if everything was okay which was great. The second time I had a problem with getting it reset and then I talked to technical service and everything went great. I was talked through with everything. I had no worries and I don't have any complaints at all at this point. Everybody was helpful when I needed it. Overall satisfaction is good. I'd recommend Frontpoint..

Installing the security device was gravy train. It was very simple, and after I got everything installed, all I needed to do was make a phone call and Frontpoint ran me through setting the whole thing up. That went quickly and they could see that all my sensors were working correctly. I haven't had any problems since then. It was an easy setup compared to ADT and some others where they run wires all through your house and then you have to pay extra to get a telephone wire operation system. So many people have landline systems and they can just cut the wires and that's the end. Frontpoint's system is very safe in that regard and nobody can affect the system from outside.
I trust the system. I've made mistakes a few times - opened the door forgetting that the system was on, then it went off and made a lot of noise, so I'm happy that it's working fine. I did have one problem one time which was battery-related. I talked to a very knowledgeable guy on the phone who took me through the whole situation and we solved the problem. Their team has always been kind, courteous, and helpful. They also send me emails and things to look for and worry about.
Overall, my experience has been very good. I wouldn't have any trouble recommending them. Although, everybody would like to see the price be a little bit lower. Lastly, I would have wanted to put in some video cameras but unfortunately, I don't have continuous Wi-Fi in my house, which the surveillance system requires, so I wasn't able to put those. I was disappointed with that but I can't say that it's really their fault per se.
Alan, we appreciate all this feedback! Please let us Know if you ever do get that continuous Wi-Fi in your home, and we can try to get you all setup with some cameras. Thanks again!

I was looking at ADT but when they came over, I was not impressed with their system and the way it works. We have a big older house with lots of jalousie windows and the Frontpoint system suited me fine.

We've been using Frontpoint for about a year and few months now and everything has been going well. Setting it up was fairly simple, my husband didn't have any issues doing it. They've been great, very responsive and definitely add a sense of security and peace of mind to the family. I have not yet come around to downloading the mobile app but turning the system on and off remotely would help. My mom knows the code but she had a difficult time turning it off at one point. I couldn't get the confirmation call because I was at a meeting. They had already dispatched the police and fire department but Frontpoint was able to stop them. They didnt show up so that was a good thing.
However, when I started my contract we weren't moved in so we weren't using the service. I asked to see if they can prorate it aqnd had to fill out a form which is too complicated for me so I didn't end up doing it. I paid for about 3 months that I didn't use the system. Additionally, I heard on the radio of another company that's similar to Frontpoint and were offering zero down and didn't charge anything for the equipment which Frontpoint does for a couple of $100. It's too bad because I am under contract and have already paid for my system.

I'm away a lot so it's also nice to be able to get on their interactive feature and know that none of my doors or windows are open. It's convenient. I was backpacking and I had to be at certain points to get a cell reception. I got an indication from Frontpoint saying that I had a low battery.

Frontpoint's been good. My only concern is that it sometimes goes off and they don't call. I am wondering how long this should be going off before Frontpoint will call us. I don't know how fast Frontpoint is. But we feel safer having it. If somebody breaks in the house, it feels like there's somebody else other than me who will let the police and emergency know.
Linette, great question. Generally your system will start beeping before the alarm goes off. This is your entry delay and the amount of time you have to disarm your system can be set by you within your myfrontpoint.com account! Once the actual alarm goes off, it takes 15 seconds to travel and get to our monitoring station at which point they will call you. If you disarm your system during that entry delay or that 15 seconds, your alarm is cancelled and you will not be called. We hope this helps answer your question, and let us know if you need anything else!

For a number of years, we didn't use a home security system and my wife kept insisting that we get one. I went on the internet, did a little research and read a lot of customers' views on the big guys like ADT and some of the bigger ones. I was very unhappy with the things I read then I saw Frontpoint. We got them and have been using them for about a year now. Setting it up was super easy. When I received the kit, it took me a total of an hour to install it, call Frontpoint, set it up, test it, and be done. It was a self installation system which was one of the selling points. We preferred not having a technician coming in our house and learning exactly how our security system works, because he could easily give that information to somebody to defeat the system.
When I first called Frontpoint and ordered the system, I did it over the phone. They told me what I needed to do to give them accurate information and get a reliable system set up. They're really helpful. We told them what we needed, ordered it, and it was shipped on the day that was said it was going to be shipped. We installed it and it worked exactly the way they said the first time. We use the mobile app all the time, too. My wife and I both have it on our phones and generally use an app to disarm the system as we're pulling in the driveway almost daily. It's useful and it serves a good purpose.
However, there are occasions when we try to get on the mobile app from our phone and can't get in because there are problems. It will say, "Cannot log you in." Everybody has internet issues but once a month, we'll have problems and have to come in the house and disarm the system manually from the keypad. Other than that, we've had no problems with it. My wife feels a lot better about it. A happy wife is a happy life so it's made my life nicer.
Frontpoint is absolutely a great company with an excellent service. I've been approached by many other security companies. Some big companies have offered a free year of service to swap out. I refused to let go of Frontpoint and change even though it came to about $42 a month for monitoring. I could have gotten a year free monitoring from other companies but I just flat out told them, "It isn't worth it to go with you guys from what I've read."
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your story with us! We are so happy to hear that you and your wife are enjoying your system and that you have had a great experience with us. It truly is an honor to have you as part of our family and we ask that you please let us know if there is anything we can ever do for you, as we are always here and happy to help you!

We've been using Frontpoint for more than a year. It was easy to install and we didn't need much help from their people. The app is good, but the only thing I'd like is more fine-grain control for other users when using it. Right now if you give someone control through the app, they have access to everything which I don't like. So I have not been giving others access through the app, just the panel.
Thanks so much for the great suggestion! We will definitely pass it along.

I had Frontpoint for about a year and at first, I had to piece things altogether myself but it was easy. The team at Frontpoint was good, but they didn't serve what I needed. I had to buy everything individually - thermostats, door locks, etc. if I wanted to automate it. I hardly used it because we had accidentally set it off a few times and had started to have to pay for all the false alarm visits from the police. So I got rid of them and went with Vivint, which is way better. I live in Hawaii and being in a remote place, a lot of the stores didn't sell all the home-automation things that I wanted and Vivint came in without a charge. They brought the contract and put in all the home-automation that I wanted in more than a month.

I wanted to upgrade and use a newer technology and when I called Monitronics they said there are some charges for it. I didn't want to pay that charge, so I switched to Frontpoint. The people that explained things to me before I subscribed and purchased were very good in terms of knowledge and answering my questions. I didn't have any situations where I needed to call them again after that. The package they sent out was the real stuff, I installed it myself and setting it up was very easy. I also installed the mobile app although I haven't used it yet, but it's something I need to look into in the next couple of days because I want to be able to activate or deactivate my alarms from far away distances.
There were a couple of times when there was an error and they got the wrong signal though. It happened twice that I go home and when I disarm my alarm, Frontpoint would call me around twenty minutes later and say my alarm went on and to ask, "Is everything okay?" and I say, "No. My alarm never went on. I was in the house. I didn't hear it." It would definitely be nice to have somebody check it out because otherwise, if one time it's a real thing then they might think that it's a false alarm. The self-installation looks nice and professional and the transition part is very good but I haven’t really liked the way I experienced it.

I've used Frontpoint as my home security provider for about two years. It was very easy for me to set up my system since I do that type of work. I have all of their interactive features, including the mobile app. It's good being able to access and control my system at anytime from anywhere but other companies, like ADT, offer this service too.
I used ADT before Frontpoint. They use about the same equipment. One thing though that Frontpoint doesn't do that ADT does is that whenever there's a connection low, they call and make sure everything's okay. So that's not up to my standards with Frontpoint -- they're not as hands-on. But as far as the mobility of their unit, it's perfect.
I don't like the equipment though. Their touch-screen is not compatible with the old model I have and they don't give any discount for the equipment that I have so I had to upgrade with a full price versus a discounted price and I lose money like that. Other companies give you the whole new system where one doesn't have to pay anything when swapping it out after about a year. But I'm happy with Frontpoint. It's fine for me, for right now.

We got a rental house that was broken into so we put Frontpoint there, which my husband found online, and then put it in our house. Altogether, we have three units. One sensor for the motion detector, however, fell off the wall where it was mounted so they dispatched the police. They called us first but we were not home. The dog didn't set off the alarm because she wasn't home too. So now I have to go to a false alarm school for a two-hour class. We attached it with what we were given but we had moved it a couple of times before so I don't blame them for that. Maybe that's the reason it wasn't attached to the wall that securely. So now when we leave, we don't put the motion detector on, just the doors. But overall we're satisfied. Installing it was easy and we feel a little more secure that it would go off if someone was in the house.

I moved to my new house last year and I wanted to get a good security device. My neighbor recommended Frontpoint but I also heard other options like ADT and other companies. I checked online for reviews about Frontpoint and I really liked it, so I decided I want to go with them. The installation was very straightforward. When I had any question, I could call the Frontpoint security representative, and it was fairly simple to install the system. You don’t need someone from Frontpoint to come to your house and install it for you. The reps were helpful and knowledgeable.
I use the alarm.com app to activate, deactivate or do anything with my system. It's pretty convenient and a good option if you forget to activate your alarm and you’re right outside. Also, you can use it to check your sensors and activate the system from remote location. Since installing Frontpoint, I’m less worried about my house when I’m not inside. I can be sure that if something happens, it will definitely trigger my alarm and it will be taken cared of as soon as possible.
I personally think that when you get the service in the beginning, you get sensors for less price or maybe some promotional value. But when you try to add some more sensors with them, it’s quite expensive and I didn’t like that about Frontpoint security. If I want to add some glass break sensor, the cost that I have been quoted was too high if you compare it with other companies. So I hesitate to add more sensors unless I’m getting good price quote or some discounts since I’m a loyal customer. But other than that, it's a very secure and convenient system to use, and I'd recommend Frontpoint.

I bought Frontpoint because they were the best out there and because my previous security provider (the one that came with the house) wasn't that good. Customer service far exceeds my expectations. Every time I call up, it's excellent. They call every time something goes off. The device is fine and everything works well. I love the mobile app. It helps when I'm on the road and my dog sitter forgot her phone or forgot what she was supposed to do. I can turn it off for her and she can do everything when she gets to my home. Since installing it I feel more secure because when it does go off and it was past 30 seconds, they call me right away. That makes me feel good.
The only thing I wasn't happy about was the issue I've had down in my basement. I had to rig it to a point that it would meet up. There was nothing that Frontpoint could give me to make it meet up so that contacts would work correctly. So, I came up with my own little device. But it's nothing that would have stopped me from keeping it for another year.

My bedroom is at one end of the house and the back door is at the other end. So if somebody comes in and out of the back door, I would not hear it. Unfortunately, I can't work my Frontpoint. It's supposed to be on my phone and I'm supposed to be able to view things, but I can't. On occasion, I can get it on my phone and I can see the living room or one of the rooms. For example, if I'm sitting in the living room and turn it on, I can see it. But if I'm at my son's house and turn it on, there's nothing.
When the system was set up, Frontpoint had an outside guy come in. The fee was very expensive, but the young man did a nice job. I called Frontpoint about the issue and they said it wasn't their problem - that my router was not strong enough. It was too far from the camera or it wasn't in the right place. So I moved it into the living room where it sits out in the open floor - anybody walking in could see it and unplug it. It’s not what I want in my living room. They should have said, “You don’t have the proper internet access or proper Wi-Fi.” I don’t have knowledge of this since I’m not a computer person. My husband was, but, he’s gone.
Something wasn’t right however, they keep faithfully taking the $49.99 out of my credit card every month even though I haven’t used it. It’s been so long and I don't even remember how to turn the alarm on and off. Since I live alone, my whole house should have top security, especially the back room that I'm in most of the time. It's money that goes out of my pocket and I have no use for it - doesn't do anything. I bought all the top of the line equipment from Frontpoint and now I see advertised on TV that I can buy this remote stuff that's wireless and that I won't have to worry about somebody unplugging it. It seems that might be the next way to go. But I've already spent a couple thousand dollars with Frontpoint and another $500-$600 to have it installed.
On the whole, I have a non-existent experience with Frontpoint. I'm not angry with them or I would have them take the whole thing out and I'd quit paying them. However, I wouldn't necessarily recommend it to anybody. I'd love for them to come and say, "Hey, we'll fix this for you. We'll make this right." It'd be nice if somebody would come and show me how it works - quit telling me it's everybody's fault. If Frontpoint wasn't capable of giving me the service I needed, they should've told me that, and not put it in after it cost me all that money. But by the same token, I haven't called them and nagged them about it. I should probably do that one of these days.

It's been a little more than a year that we've used Frontpoint as our home security service provider. Installing our Frontpoint security device was good because I like being in control and I don't like people in my house. The self-install was actually one of the reasons why I chose them. We've had phone calls with the team at Frontpoint and these have always been pretty easy. Our phone interactions with them have all been very good. I definitely feel more secure since installing our Frontpoint security device. It's got a level of security that everybody appreciates.
I had used the mobile app. There were a few times when the mobile app was unresponsive. That's actually a huge potential problem, even if it's rare. The mobile app is chiefly how I interact with the security system, so the uptime of the mobile app is exactly the uptime of the system, from my point of view. So, if the mobile app is down, but system is up, in my perspective the whole system is down.
I would recommend Frontpoint, with some exceptions. The biggest one is that their payment system and financial system are quite primitive. We pay all other vendors in the modern world online. You would think that Frontpoint, being a tech company, would be at the forefront of that. But even up until recently, every time I had a credit card problem, I had to make a phone call and leave my credit card number or read my bank number over the phone, and that is so last century. I've heard people say that they're working on a system.

Frontpoint installation is much easier compared to ADT - you don’t need things drilled into your walls which is one of the reasons that I went with Frontpoint. Also, sometimes with ADT a bug can walk across the sensor and trip it. You can be thousands of miles away not knowing what the heck’s going on. I found that frustrating and I thought Frontpoint is probably better. Apart from the easy installation, their mobile app is excellent.
But at one time, we had an issue that was difficult to solve and I found it frustrating when each time the issue came up, a different representative would look into it and would basically have to get educated and then would come up with the same conclusions that the previous ones did, so I never made any headway. Finally, a guy by the name of Dan got involved and he did some research and he stuck with it until he solved the problem and that took care of it. Because of this experience, I got a letter from the CEO which was nice. I was happy about that. Overall they're a very good company.

I’ve had another home security provider before my switch to Frontpoint, but Frontpoint’s good because everything’s portable. I initially setup my devices one way but wanted to make a change, and we did it seamlessly. I also wanted to change the alarm and protect the front two rooms when I stay at home, and it worked very well. The push-button things are a problem however, since I think one of the sensors is down and I haven’t been on the website lately but I’m not sure. Also, I have a lot of gold, silver, certified jewelry, and without cameras, I’m feeling exposed, so I wanted Frontpoint to have cameras that are wireless, online, and are cloud-based. Other than that, my experience with the company has been clean, simple, and easy. I have no beefs at all, and I’d recommend them.

The motion sensors pickup my 20lb dogs. The glass break sensors go off all the time when we're at home, including when our morning alarms go off to wake us up or our phones ring. Ultimately motion sensors are good if you don't own pets and glass break sensors are good if you aren't home. The door sensors work fine. The touch panel is extremely slow and needs more memory. The delay causes you to hit the wrong numbers because you aren't sure if you hit the right ones when trying to disarm the system.
My touch panel is currently not responding and frozen. I see no obvious way to restart it. Waiting on a customer support call back but it has been 30 minutes and I've got to leave my home unprotected due to this issue. Not really pleased with the system. It's most useful when we're at work or vacation but awful if we're home and want to arm stay due to the glass breaks always going off.

I previously had ADT and they did all the installing. I didn’t have to install it myself, so that was a lot easier and less stressful compared to Frontpoint. With Frontpoint, we got a big house and I had to figure out to make all the sensors communicate with the control panel on my own, whereas ADT did all that for me. I also had to contact Frontpoint when I set up the system because I had to learn how to make my existing sensors work with the other sensors they sent me. They walked me through the steps programming the sensors.
But overall, you get a lot for a reasonable price with Frontpoint and it’s a good value for your money, like their mobile app which I use all the time. I love it. It's an option that I didn’t have with ADT. I had an older ADT system before and it was a hardline so when I lost power, I lost my alarm system too as the batteries went dead. But with Frontpoint, it’s wireless and an upgraded system. Having remote control and access is a great option that I really like and it’s very effective for us. We don’t use the security system all the time because normally there’s always somebody at home but when we’re gone, we leave it on. So I’m very pleased with Frontpoint and I think an upgrade is in order at some point to include cameras with the sensors in the basement.

Frontpoint's system is very convenient and easy. My brother bought the Frontpoint system for my mom's place and I got to see the system in use. I got mine too and I've had them for a year now. Installation was easy and relatively painless. And if I forget to set my alarm, I can do it through their mobile app which is very convenient. Now I don't worry as much about someone breaking into my home.
Good! You deserve to have that peace of mind now that we've got your back.

I wanted to have a home security because I was moving to a new neighborhood and we just bought a new house. I went online and found out about Frontpoint. Installing the Frontpoint security device was not that difficult. I'm using the mobile app and I can just activate or deactivate the alarm from my phone. I've had Frontpoint for a year now and my experience so far has been good.
Awesome, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us!

My fiancee has Frontpoint in her home and she recommended it to me. I have them for about a year now. I live in a 200-yr old home and I like that the device is cellular and wireless because that made the installation very easy. I have spoken to Frontpoint representatives several times and it went perfectly fine. It's been a great experience with them.
Making sure you get the same excellent customer service each time you give us a call is our job, and we promise to always provide you with that!

My old security provider didn't offer wireless and they gave me more sensors for the windows and motion sensors than Frontpoint does so in the end it costed me more to have Frontpoint. Nevertheless, Frontpoint offers more wireless and I can do it by myself. At first, I had to do some research and call the tech when installing their device but it was doable. Their mobile app is convenient, but I don't know how secure is that since Frontpoint uses Alarm.com which is a third-party provider and not their own system. Also, they should have discounts for customers if they want something else (they don't and that's a downside). But they have good customer service and I can get connected with them quickly. I had a couple accidents and they're really good, and they're local and not a franchise.
Hafiz, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us, and every once in a while we do have coupons go out in the mail (email) so keep an eye out for those!

My initial order from Frontpoint was very quick and everything was faster and easier than I was expecting. I ordered some more sensors and it was all easy and painless. Also the installation was very simple and I love the mobile. I feel safer with Frontpoint.
Being able to add onto your system at anytime is definitely helpful isn't it? We sure think so!

My husband liked that the Frontpoint system came shipped to us and that he could set it up himself. He installed the devices easily, and since having it, I’m no longer worried when I’m not around the house. We set off the alarms a couple of times so we had to call their team. But they were nice and they took care of everything. I’d recommend them.
We're glad to hear that quick response time is giving you the peace of mind you deserve! Let us know if you need anything going forward.

I signed up with Frontpoint because they were the company that called back, took the time to explain how everything worked and really understood what I was looking for. While installing the device, I had an issue with it beeping on me. I phoned Frontpoint and they solved it right away. My installation experience was nice, smooth and easy. I definitely feel safer because it’s nice to know that there’s something there when I’m away. And their mobile app is certainly handy. Any time I’ve phoned for questions, Frontpoint has been extremely efficient, friendly and helpful.
We try to be as much help as possible! You signed up for a secure system and awesome customer service so we make sure that's exactly what you get.

My husband did a lot of research and found Frontpoint. We've been with them for the last year and a half. Installing it was very simple in that it took only less than an hour. My husband uses the mobile app all the time to arm and disarm. Now we definitely feel safer. We've not had an issue with the actual system itself unlike with our previous provider.
"No issues" is what we love to hear!

The reviews and the packages Frontpoint offered were the reasons why I chose them as my security provider. Their device was self-installed so I did it all and was easy. The mobile app is also good and easy to use.
Glad to hear your system was easy to setup!

We've had Frontpoint for two years, and chose them because they are one of the higher-rated companies. We haven’t used it since it had been installed, but we have it just in case.
Thanks for your feedback and please let us know if you ever have any questions or ever need anything!

I've had Frontpoint since April of last year. The device was easy to install, and the customer service rep was pleasant in helping me set it up. I have Frontpoint as a deterrent because people can break into your house and steal something worth money in 90 seconds. It's a good service.
Happy to hear that we were able to help you get setup and that you are enjoying your system!

I have been with Frontpoint for a year. I have another provider before which was good, but Frontpoint is wireless. Installing it was easy and their mobile app is good. However, I have a question because when I open the door, it is not sounding.
We're so happy to hear you are enjoying your system! You mention the door not chiming when you open it so we are going to have one of our Support Specialists reach out to you to look into that door sensor and make sure everything is working exactly how you need it to.

Installing the Frontpoint device was simple because the instructions were short and they provided all the information I needed to set it up. Their team has also been positive and helpful. The only problem is that our cat has set it off a number of times and they claim that the motion sensors wouldn't be activated by pets that weigh under 30 pounds. There was one motion sensor in the area where the cat dug up on something and I moved it up higher than their general recommendations. It would still activate for a person, but he didn't seem to set it off anymore.
We're so glad to hear that you were able to get your system all setup and that you were able to adjust that motion sensor so that the cat would not set it off! Thanks so much for sharing your experience and always remember that we are just a phone call away if you ever need anything.

I have Frontpoint for over a year already. The device was easy to install, and their people were really helpful setting it up over the phone. I haven't had a whole lot of experience but they seem to be helpful and more prompt on the calls that they receive compared to my previous provider. I also had a couple of calls when one of the alarms went off. Other than that, everything's been fine. I use the mobile app all the time and it's great.
So glad to see that you are enjoying your system and that you are receiving excellent customer service each time you call in! Thanks for sharing your experience and please don't hesitate to give us a call if you ever need anything.
