wireless alarm system
"My wireless alarm system has really lived up to its specification courtesy of Boundary company. I purchased my very own alarm system after doing extensive research online. The reviews were positive pointing out this is an economical solution for home security. I chose a package with a radar device and a self-testing GSM/Handset unit, but there are various other combinations available - from simply a user-friendly. It was the best decision I have made for my safety. It is much cheaper than other companies and has all the functions needed. If anyone needs a security system in their home or for their car, I'd like to recommend Boundary and hope this review will help them make their decisions easier.

Conclusion
Reviews indicate a divided picture: while some users report reliable hardware and effective online support, many customers describe app failures, sensor or connectivity problems and a loss of service after the company entered administration. A recurring complaint is lack of communication and no advance notice to customers, leaving devices dependent on cloud/app services effectively unusable for some. If you already own a Boundary system, check whether your devices can operate locally or be repurposed with other hubs; several reviewers noted sensors were reusable with third‑party bases. Prospective buyers should weigh the risk of vendor instability for cloud‑dependent systems and consider purchasing from providers with explicit service continuity policies or local‑only operation; if you paid by card, some reviewers recommend exploring credit card protections such as a Section 75 claim.
