Vonage, Alarm.com Partner on VOIP Security

MCLEAN, Va. -- Alarm.com, a leading provider of wireless, Web-enabled security system technology, today announced a marketing alliance with Vonage Holdings Corporation, North America's leading broadband telephony company, to address the growing need for Voice-over-IP (VoIP)-compatible security systems for residential and commercial VoIP customers.

Through its participating Security Dealers, Alarm.com will offer Vonage customers a reliable, phone-line-independent security system that transmits alarm signals from a customer's home or business wirelessly to a central monitoring station, which can then contact local authorities in the event of an emergency.

Monitored security systems which require traditional phone service have prevented some VoIP customers from canceling their traditional phone service and recognizing the full economic benefits of VoIP telephone service. Alarm.com's long range wireless solution provides VoIP customers reliable security event signaling that is not dependent on their phone line.

Under the terms of the program, participating Alarm.com Dealers will also be able to offer their customers the best in broadband phone service from Vonage. The savings generated by switching primary phone service to Vonage often cover the cost of security monitoring, which makes the Alarm.com/Vonage "TomorrowTech"TM package an attractive option for many customers who are currently using landline-based security systems.

"We are pleased to partner with Vonage, the leading provider of VoIP service, to offer its customers a VoIP-compatible security system solution," said Steve Trundle, Alarm.com CEO. "Alarm.com's capabilities allow customers to use the Web to monitor and control their homes and businesses remotely and are a great fit with Vonage customers' Internet lifestyles and their broadband phone service."
