difference in quality of equipment: ADT, Brinks, Slomins, etc?

hello,
I am looking to get a residential alarm system (3 family house in urban
area). Is there a difference in quality of equipment between ADT,
Brinks, Slomins?

What about independent dealers? How would a consumer know if the
equipment was "good"?

Thanks.

This is the monthly "who's the best" thread that ends up 7000 reposts
later with the discussion turned towards bathroom humor, and the OP
deciding to hand over all assets to the first burglar he can find just
to detach themselves from our industry.
Of the 7000 posts we will read 5000 different stories from bAss
describing how he ran wire in a ten million dollar home constructed of
nothing but yellow Lego's, and owned by the Dali Lama's personal
gardener.
You, Crash, will immediately concur that bAss' skills are superhuman
(totally ignoring any glimpse of reality), and RHC will still be
bragging about Florida.

You're half right.

Me...I just duck out of the thread once it strays, nothing to do with RLB's
superhumanness or whatever. I just find the dit/tat annoying no matter who
is right/wrong.

Kicks and Giggles. It is better than the morning funnies in the local rags.
It really is all harmless. It is probably looked at differently when it gets
to who should and shouldn't be in this business and why, and that's cool,
but, there are alot of unsuspecting people that come here for whatever
reason.

Did you notice poor Crash called his question an off-topic post?
The only fucking thing in this thread alarm-related and he calls it
off-topic.
He's way too polite, Franky. I need to tutor him :)
