There are basically two choices with home security, contractor installed or self-installed. I chose the self-installed route because I didn't want a contractor in my home with knowledge to our master password, or potentially scoping out our house (which does happen). From there, it's basically just price and feature shopping like any other purchase, check out the reviews / ratings sites to make sure the company has good customer service and fast response times. Most companies use apps and the cool technology now, you just have to see where they are making their money (long term contracts, leased equipment, etc.). As far as the actual installation, Frontpoint was about as easy as it gets. If you can pull stickers off of sticky strips and make a phone call, you've pretty much got it!
