Customers of Alarm.com, a leading provider of wireless,
web-interactive security and monitoring system technology, are able to
manage and monitor their home and business security systems from their
PDAs. By logging into a special PDA-friendly website
(http://www.alarm.com/PDA), Alarm.com users can arm or disarm their
systems, view current system status, assign and manage user codes, and
even control lights. They can also receive email and text message
notifications of power outages, alarms, and more.

"We were hearing from an increasing number of customers that our web
dashboard and email and cell notifications were very useful, but that
PDA- compatibility was also needed," said Steve Trundle, CEO of
Alarm.com.

According to the Gartner Group, over 15 million PDAs shipped in 2005,
surpassing 2001's record-setting 13.2 million. For busy customers
always on the move, Alarm.com's mobile device compatibility is a
welcome new feature.

"I find the Alarm.com PDA site very useful, since I'm often in
meetings or on the road," said Frank Jennings. "I'm able to log in and
check the status of our home, and arm and disarm the system. And I can
turn lights on remotely if I'm going to be home late."

Alarm.com's straightforward web interface allows an enhanced usability
that no traditional security system offers. And unlike landline-based
systems that can be disabled if an intruder cuts the phone line,
Alarm.com systems are more secure because they communicate all signals
wirelessly. Now, the connectedness of the Alarm.com system has been
extended to PDAs, so that users have complete control and oversight
from these increasingly popular devices.
