Frontpoint Security prices
You’ve got two monthly monitoring packages for your Frontpoint alarm system. The tiers are structured similarly to Vivint’s.
Interactive plan
Interactive is Frontpoint’s introductory plan and is the Frontpoint plan we recommend for most people. You get mobile app access so you can arm, disarm, or check in on your alarm system from anywhere. It also integrates a smart thermostat.
Like Vivint’s base plan, the Interactive plan also includes smoke, heat, and carbon monoxide monitoring to keep an eye on your entire home. Frontpoint also includes Crash and Smash Protection, which protects your control panel’s communication with the monitoring center if someone tries to bust it.
Ultimate plan
Take everything from the Interactive plan, add smart home devices and video monitoring, and you’ve got the Ultimate plan. With this plan, you can control your lights, get an automated door lock, use a doorbell camera, and watch live video on your Frontpoint app.
Customer service
Frontpoint prides itself on quality customer service. It claims this is one of the reasons its customers keep their security systems long after their initial contract ends. Frontpoint’s customer support hours vary a little between weekdays and weekends:
- Monday–Friday: 8 a.m.–11 p.m. Eastern
- Saturday–Sunday: 10 a.m.–7 p.m. Eastern
Although Frontpoint has limited customer service hours, its employees know their stuff. They stand out for being knowledgeable, well trained, and just plain helpful, which you don’t always get from companies that outsource their customer support services.
