Monitoring starts at $19.99\/month for Standard and $29.99\/month for Fast Protect, with a $9.99 self\u2011monitoring camera plan also available. Optional pro installation is available for an added fee (<a href=\"https:\/\/simplisafe.com\/monitoring\">plans<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/wirecutter\/reviews\/best-home-security-system\/\">Wirecutter<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike earlier iterations, SimpliSafe now offers outdoor cameras and camera\u2011assisted verification, including Live Guard agent talk\u2011down on Fast Protect\u2014features that improve deterrence and response.
