Once my door had been opened by mistake and the person ran off, I had a call almost immediately to check. I don't have to when I'm home or not that someone is going to get into my house.

I like Frontpoint because I can control the system remotely. Great responses from the company - they seem to be the best out there for home security. I do think they are very expensive

So far this works fairly well. I have had some issues with the technology of the security system. However, the response from Frontpoint has been very prompt. The problem is they have to talk you through solving the issues, as opposed to sending someone out to look at it personally.

I think it's very valuable having an app and being able to see through the camera's. Though, I don't think that is what sets Frontpoint apart from its competitors. Some of their technologies, especially on the slab fronts, are a little dated. They are very prompt in their response and are always very polite and helpful.

My experience has been good. They definitely let you know if there is a problem at your location. Something to improve on would be length of time for recording other than when there is an incident.

Customer service was very helpful and patient when I was learning more about the company. The device's alarm is loud enough for the neighbors to hear. It is easy to set up, and easy to use.

Customer service is always so nice and so helpful. From the app I would like to be able to turn down the voice on my hub. I've tried to use the controls that come in the app and her voice is still so loud. I called customer service and they said they would turn it down but it never changed.

Frontpoint has been great (reasonable price and equipment as well as good customer service) but Frontpoint charges you to use their app to set your alarm, monitor security, etc. and charges $10 a month to use the app. What is the point of having a security system if you can't check what's going on from your phone? It's ridiculous.

The system, and the mobile app, is very good. This alarm system, like MOST other cellular/WiFi systems, is very specific to your place of installation. With my house having metal studs, metallic insulation, and numerous normal modern appliances, the system was worthless. Many false alarms, many unreported alarms. Who wants to be laying in bed and hear "patio door open"? You grab your gun and find out no door was opened. This happened enough times for me to get this system out of my life. Nothing wrong with frontpoint, just do your research on these types of systems before purchasing. SO many flaws in this technology. Go hard-wired, old school alarm systems if home security is important.

Frontpoint seems to have a disconnect between their sales department and their customer service department. I have been a customer since the early days and my equipment has literally stopped working 4 difference occasions. When I suddenly became 'out of contract" dates, I was sent to sales. TOTALLY inappropriate because I am a current customer and I was sold a whole new package. I felt completely ripped off. In contract once again, and the equipment died on me...once again. SO FRUSTRATING. The manufacture of the central box seems to have quality control problems. I will give excellent feedback to customer support for handling me. We travel a great deal and sadly, the equipment seemed to fail when we were getting ready for an extended trip. So, we were without service for weeks at a time. Customer service took care of things but I really had to hound them from the airport and than once again, remotely. I give Frontpoint a 2 from a technology standpoint but if your customer service hadn't 'delivered' I wouldn't be a customer anymore.

I had one motion sensor that was giving false ratings, but it went back and I have no problems with anything else. I feel secure when I am not here, it somebody breaks into my house, I know that I have something.

I would definitely recommend them. You can access home security anywhere if you are connected to the internet. They give good options for easy installation and I chose front point for the self installation. The equipment is average.

They are the most secure based on online comparison. This is my first time I have had a security system but everything has been functional even when we were without power for twenty four hours. They have been flexible and very open and accommodating.

Their customer service is really easy to get a hold of and they walk you through everything. Honestly, some of the sensors don't work all the time. I would suggest they not make their contract a two or three year plan, I think it drives some people away and it is kind of expensive. There are cheaper ones with no contract.

I feel like I was a little bit misled by the customer service. They need to be one hundred percent clear on what they are selling to make sure the customer understands. One time we forgot to turn off the alarm and we were called immediately.

They are usually very very helpful. I don't have to do a lot of waiting to talk to someone, they've always been helpful when I called in. The equipment is easy to use. I'm not one hundred percent satisfied with the level of monitoring. I like that I can arm and disarm the system from my cell phone. I don't like the fact that only when the alarm goes off for more than thirty seconds, I get a call. I would like to have a call no matter how long the alarm goes off for.

The customer service has been very responsive but I did have an issue where I couldn't contact them because they had no representatives available at the time, maybe it was outside their office hours. It's inexpensive but functional.

There was confusion in the beginning whether the online service and app were included in the basic package. I thought it was, and I had the app when I signed up. However, after paying, the app became non-functional. I called them and they added full functionality and the app. Great resolution!

I liked that I could install the security system myself. The sensors go off sometimes and I don't know why. Customer service is pretty responsive. They're really good at turning them off when I call but if I'm not home, it is kind of an issue. I ordered a replacement a month ago and haven't got it yet, so I am going to call again today.

I don't feel that the alarm is loud enough and they don't offer an extra alarm that you can add to it. You can use your cell phone to arm or disarm it and that makes it a lot easier.

They are very responsive to alarms, but I am concerned that a live person doesn't call you when there is a problem with your alarm. It is a very durable system, but water and other elements can cause it to degrade and malfunction.

Frontpoint was at a low cost, and the installation process was very easy. Customer service was cooperative and helpful, but there was quite a bit of miscommunication about the systems capabilities, and the service didn't quite measure up to what was expected. It doesn't really have the capabilities as advertised.
