Alula Security Services

The Alula Security Services essentially provide users with the ability to receive their own email and SMS text notifications of alarm events. This is known as self-monitoring where you receive your own alarm events instead of having them sent to a central station monitoring service. Not only can you use this as a stand alone, self-monitoring solution, but you can have the Alula devices send signals to a central station monitoring service as well.

The other benefit you get while using the Alula communication devices is that you will get a smartphone app for iPhone or Android phones that will allow you to arm and disarm your panel and, if you have a compatible system, see system status on a virtual keypad. You will also get a list of past alarm history and the ability to give your users and zones aliases so you will receive a name instead of just a user number or zone number.

We wrote a blog post describing all of the in and outs of Alula and the devices they offer for self-monitoring which you can read HERE.
