Our take

SimpliSafe is the rare home-security trial that's actually friendly — no 36-month contract, no installer in your house. The 30 days of professional monitoring is genuine and you can downgrade to free self-monitoring without losing the hardware. Take it. If you don't want pro dispatch (the top tiers run $50–$80/mo), set a calendar reminder for day 28 and switch to the $9.99 self-monitoring plan to keep camera recording, or drop to free if your cameras have local storage you trust.
