Research: Majority of Security System Owners Interested in Warranty Services

How big of a selling point, you may ask? Enough that over two thirds of consumers in a recent Parks Associates study said they are interested in a warranty service when they purchase a professionally installed security system.
 
“Smart device owners are demonstrating their interest in warranties in addition to support and protections for their connected devices as add-on services,” says Frank Saldaña, research analyst, Parks Associates. “Our research shows that almost half of respondents have purchased an extended warranty/device protection service of some kind, up 15% from Q2 2019.”
 
As part of the whitepaper, Protect the Connected Home: Home Security Meets Personal Privacy, the research, released in partnership with Assurant, highlights consumers’ privacy concerns around smart home devices and the opportunities that pro monitoring security providers have to offer warranty, cybersecurity and other add-on services.
