An Overview of Sonitrol

Sonitrol is one of the largest commercial security companies in North America, serving more than 180 cities with state-of-the-art verified security solutions and trained professional monitoring experts.

We have over 50 years experience and the best apprehension record in the business (at over 187,000 and counting).

Our job is to keep our customers and their businesses safe - and to make the job of capturing criminals easier for the responding authorities. We work to help police increase criminal apprehensions through the use of audio and video verification technologies.

This ability is increasingly important as communities adopt verified response policies. We fully support the implementation of verified-only police response. Our very low 3% false alarm rate (compared to 98% for all other alarms) and police partnership is why police hurry to our alarms.

As an expert in all things verified security, our owner Joe Wilson has made a large number of media appearances to discuss the importance of verified response, as well as giving businesses tips on security best practices.
