Top Ranked Companies
The Good
- Security and Monitoring
- Online Chat Feature
- CSAA Certified
The Bad
- No Contract Length Information
- Unknown Cancellation Policy
- No Pricing Information
- No Home Automation Systems
Briscoe does not provide a lot of essential information on its available security packages. Contract agreement lengths are not disclosed, and the company does not explain its cancellation policy. Warranty and moving policy information are also not included on Briscoe's website. It is helpful when companies provide pricing, cost, and fee information up front. Briscoe's website does not mention anything on pricing, or what each piece of equipment costs. It is unclear how much customers can expect to pay to add on more advanced features to their security system. The company does not list how much it costs to install/activate each system. Additionally Briscoe does not provide many details on security installation. With the lack of website information, it does not appear that the company offers specific packages for home automation. While smart device access and apps are mentioned, no additional information is provided or specified.
The Bottom Line
Briscoe Protective Systems, Inc. is a New York-based security company that specializes in security, fire, and carbon monoxide alarm systems. The company offers 24/7 professional monitoring from a UL listed CSAA Five Diamond Certified Central Station. With the pros, comes the cons. Briscoe does not disclose pricing information, a moving policy, a cancellation policy, or warranty information. For those that live in New York and one of the servicing areas, Briscoe may be worth looking into; however, we recommend exploring other, more transparent security companies.
