Fort Worth, TX (PRWEB) February 19, 2013

Tim Smythe, the senior editor from 6Webs.com states, The 6Webs.com review team receives feedback from speaking to a lot of customers and home security shoppers. Over the years the features most important to consumers have changed some but reliability always remains at the top of the list. Home security companies are expanding more into home automation and building smarter systems, which translates into consumers wanting the latest and greatest set of features. A big feature this year is mobile access from an iPhone, iPad or Android device. Recently there has been more demand for the convenience features.

Most important features to consumers according to 6Webs.com are:

1. Reliable 24/7 Monitoring Services: A home security system is great but it is the monitoring services that respond to an intrusion, fire or dangerous levels of carbon monoxide. Consumers not only save more on their homeowners insurance by selecting a home security company to provide monitoring services but also have an added peace of mind that their home is being monitored 24 hours a day.

2. Equipment and Warranty: The home security system is only as good as its equipment so consumers prefer brand name equipment from companies like GE, Honeywell and 2Gig. Every home security system should come with a warranty and all of the top providers ranked on 6Webs.com provide a minimum of a two-year warranty.

3. Cellular Monitoring Services: The days of using a phone line to communicate to the home security companys monitoring station are no longer in demand. Consumers want cellular monitoring services because it uses a reliable GSM connection and it is not susceptible to having its wires cut by a burglar outside of the home. Those consumers who have watched the popular movie Panic Room in the 90s know that phone lines can be cut.

4. Accessibility: Accessing the home security system from the home or while on the go is in high demand. Remotely arming and disarming the home security system, receiving text message alerts or streaming video to a smartphone are just some of the capabilities consumers are wanting when purchasing a home security system.
