The main differences between do-it-yourself alarm monitoring and central station alarm monitoring services are:

DIY alarm monitoring: This option allows you to manage your own commercial business alarm system using a smartphone app or web portal. You will be responsible for responding to any alerts that come through and contacting emergency services if necessary. Rest assured if you chose DIY self monitoring initially, that you always have the option to convert to professional alarm monitoring services at anytime!

Central station alarm monitoring services: This option is typically provided by a professional security company, like GeoArm, that has a 24/7 staffed PRO central monitoring station. Our monitoring staff will respond to alerts at your business and take appropriate action on your behalf, such as contacting emergency services or dispatching a security guard. You will typically pay a slightly higher monthly fee for this service, which covers the cost of the monitoring staff. Our PRO monitored clients are also eligible for a certificate of alarm that may be required by their business insurance provider. Take note, that our DIY self-monitored accounts are not eligible for the certificate of alarm.

While DIY alarm monitoring is a more affordable option, it can require more effort and vigilance on the part of the business owner. GeoArm central station monitoring services offer peace of mind and a more comprehensive approach to security. Ultimately, the choice depends on the business security needs and budget.

Compare Steps for Business Monitoring:

Step 1.

A security sensor is triggered and is transmitted from the control panel to the end user and/or GeoArm 24/7 Pro central monitoring station.

Step 2.

With DIY self monitoring, the end user is responsible for dispatching the authorities when an alarm initiating event occurs.
With PRO central monitoring, the 24/7 live operator is responsible for following the dispatch protocol (listed in Step 3).

Step 3.

If alarm signal is either confirmed valid, or if the end user is unreachable when the operator attempts to contact them, then dispatching procedures will occur (police, fire and/or medical authorities).

Video Surveillance
for Live Viewing and Management!

Video surveillance services allow users the ability to remotely view real time video, and get mobile alerts, of their property over the internet or smartphone. Most high-definition (ranging from 720p, 1080p or even 4K resolution) security cameras provide crystal clear and detailed video footage even in low-light or nighttime conditions. Businesses use these cameras to monitor storefronts, parking lots, warehouses, and other critical areas to prevent theft, vandalism, and unauthorized access. Municipalities and organizations may deploy standalone cameras in parks, streets, and other public areas to enhance safety and security.

Some security cameras contain built-in microphones and speakers, enabling two-way audio communication. This allows the user to speak through the camera in real-time, to interact with visitors or to for deterring intruders. It is easy to setup customizable recording settings based on the security event, video motion detection, and time of day. Conveniently receive email/text message notifications whenever a new video motion-activated clip has been recorded. Recorded video clips are then either stored locally via SD cards or remotely, on the cloud, so that you can view them again, after the event has occurred.
