Total WiFi Home Security Main Panel

Too many features to mention, if you need it it's probably in the system. Maybe my favorite feature is auto-arm and auto-disarm. Will definitely be adding smoke detector to system. One minor improvement to system would be ability to add description or name to a Zone. I created a cheat sheet for future reference. Would definitely recommend.

Very friendly and helpful support. Stayed online for as long as i needed them and always got back to me very quickly. The one place that could be improved is the instruction manual. My only issue is my wifi was setup to both 2.4 Mhz and 5.0 Mhz but the system needs to be able to connect via 2.4 only.

Have for the past 30 years had a professionally installed security system in my home. A friend (operating on a shoestring) needed a system installed in his store, thus offered to research the web and, if I found a good system, would install for him. Never expected to find a product of this caliber. The entire system is incredibly easy to install. Was totally amazed at the many different monitors would can add to the system to alarm for CO2, glass breakage, door entry, water encroachment, and on and on. An incredible array of sensors - for a total of 99 different zones! Am NOT in the security business, yet know for my next home I will seriously consider installing this system. (BTW, tech support is awesome - with special kudos going out to "Jessica," who is top-notch in being familiar with this system.

I replaced the an older S02 system with the Total Security WiFi system. There are many things to like about it. Set up was easy, and all my sensors were compatible with the new system. The panel is powered by a Mini USB plug - just like your mobile phone - I installed 2 loud sirens for either end of the house. When you arm the panel, these blink and beep, which is fine. When you arm the panel for at home, the sirens do not beep, which is perfect.

I have reviewed the other components in the system I have used so far but will also comment here on the Fortress Security Company overall. They import and customize these systems. You can buy them from other sources, it only takes some digging. I did the digging and still came back here to buy. FSS does a terrific job of putting together these products with service and support (and the longest warranty I found anywhere). They are a small company so you sometimes have to be patient but you actually get to talk to them (online/email/or phone) - NOT an outsourced foreign call center with someone running the "idiot consumer script" and you begging for "level 2 tech support." If you are going the DIY Alarm system route - this is a great place to start. Now for the Main Panel itself. It is very flexible and you get a lot for your money. People need to remember that this is your MAIN PANEL! Don't install this at your entry door and expect to have ANY security! Have you ever seen a main console hung next to a door for a thief to smash upon break in EVER, anywhere? This panel should be deep in your home. Get remote means to interface with it. With a little DIY creativity this is an impressive system for the money. I am hoping that Fortress rolls out improvements for installed systems in the form of firmware or improved remote interfaces (rolling codes etc), however they already offer a trade in upgrade program which is another reason I believe they are a customer focused company. I'm very happy with my system so far, and yes you can plug and play in an hour with what they ship - or spend some time and get something very robust.
