Vivint blows (hurricane) competition away, website says

We're now in hurricane season, which began in the Atlantic Ocean in June and won't end until the last day of November. And, according to a website that does annual reviews of home security companies, the company that stands out during such bad weather is Vivint.

6Webs.com selected Utah-based home automation/home security company as the “Best Home Security Company during Hurricane Season,” according to a news release from that website, http://www.6webs.com.

The company says it does independent reviews of home security systems and “conducts an annual review of the leading home security providers and ranks them based on several categories that are important to consumers.”

In awarding the recognition to Vivint - which is reportedly considering a sale - 6Webs.com cites the features the company offers including its Go! Control panel weather alerts, with inclement weather notifications via an iPhone, iPad or Android device; the back-up batteries it provides for all the home security systems it installs, which help ensure protection if the power goes out; its 24-hour customer service; and the fact that it provides cellular monitoring.

“In the case of a natural disaster not only could power be lost, but phone line service could be interrupted for a long period of time leaving your home less secure. This is also the case with Internet-based systems when power is lost, the connection to the monitoring center will be lost as well. Vivint's cellular security system is the most reliable way to ensure the connections with the monitoring center is not interrupted,” the news release said.
