Alarm.com and SunRocket Announce Marketing Alliance


MCLEAN, Va., Sept. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Alarm.com, a leading provider of wireless, Web-enabled interactive security and monitoring system technology, today announced a marketing alliance with SunRocket, one of the nation's fastest-growing Internet phone service providers.



SunRocket customers will now have access to reduced pricing on Alarm.com systems and upgrade packages, ensuring that any household considering a home security solution will be able to purchase Alarm.com's fully-compatible advanced wireless and web-enabled security solution. Because Alarm.com's system does not require a phone line or Internet connection to communicate signals to the central station, it is a compelling alternative for existing and prospective SunRocket customers seeking a wireless home security solution.

"SunRocket is committed to enabling as many consumers as possible to experience our pioneering annual, all-inclusive home phone service," said Joyce Dorris, co-founder and chief marketing officer at SunRocket. "Through our alliance with Alarm.com, SunRocket customers seeking to upgrade their existing home security solution or purchase a new one now have direct access to one of the most secure, cost-effective web-enabled security and monitoring systems on the market today."


Alarm.com allows customers the ability to monitor and control their security systems remotely through the Web, and receive real-time text-messages and e-mail alerts that keep them informed of all types of activity on their property, not just alarms. They can even control lights with the click of a mouse button.

"Taking advantage of the many benefits of VoIP should not prevent consumers from having a safe and secure home," said Mary Knebel, Alarm.com vice president of business development. "We are very happy to extend our high-quality, wireless security and monitoring solutions through our SunRocket partnership."

SunRocket customers can purchase the Alarm.com home security package via http://www.alarm.com/SunRocket and through the Alarm.com authorized and licensed dealer network.
