Sonitrol’s alarm systems are already Verified through electronic surveillance. Here are some things to know about our system:
| CONVENTIONAL SYSTEMS | VOLUMETRIC COVERAGE |
|---|---|
| Conventional systems have a false alarm rate of up to 98% | Sonitrol has a low false alarm rate |
| Cannot tell the difference between real trouble and false alarms | Trained operators listen to live audio, recognize non-threatening noises and reset the system |
| Covers only part of a facility, from limited points of entry | Complete coverage from any point of entry |
| Activated after break-in, when intruder is already inside | Detection while intruder is still attempting to gain entry |
| Most monitoring personnel call the facility first to verify break in, then call the owner to see if they should send police | Sonitrol operators confirm with live audio immediately, call police, and stay in contact to provide real-time intelligence to assist with apprehension |
| Most use audible alarms which alert intruders, and makes it easy for criminals to test the system | Silent alarm leads to Sonitrol's high apprehension rate |
There is a new wave in law enforcement sweeping across the country called Verified Response (VR) and many cities have already enacted a policy. Here are some things that you have to consider:
