Hi, I recently just moved into a new place that has an old existing ADT alarm system, which has been disabled (no power). For home insurance reasons, I am interested in getting a new security system – however I have a few hard requirements:

1) It must have 4G & battery backup. This is a must have because I do not have stable power or internet. 4G is always stable here though.

2) It must be able to be armed and disarmed from Google Home (Not Google Assistant)’s app control (Not voice). This is a must have because for accessibility reasons I cannot use voice control.

​

From my research, my only option is an ADT Command system. However, I’ve heard a lot of bad stories about ADT.

Alarm.com does not appear to have very good Google Home integration, and SimpliSafe only allows arming via Google Home (according to their documentation which isn’t very clear).

​

The existing ADT system may also work but I am uncertain whether it will allow Google Home integration without upgrading it to ADT Command or some newer panel.

​

What are my options?
