"There are many new entrants in the DIY and monitoring landscape, so companies need to go beyond the standard peace-of-mind value proposition to differentiate in this crowded market," said Ryan Hulla, Analyst, Parks Associates. "Benefits such as ease of use and access control innovations can help solutions stand out, and some security companies are branching out into new sectors, such as energy services and vehicle monitoring. At CONNECTIONS™, we will discuss many of these new opportunities and explore the impact of recent moves, such as ADT’s joint venture with Ford and the partnership between Alarm.com and telematics provider CalAmp."
