• Browser based remote dealer access. Users can add new accounts, view and update customer information, place accounts on and off test, view activity and run customized reports.

• Caller ID Injection on outbound calls. When calling your customers, they will see your company name and phone number on their caller ID display. Your customers and their contacts will know it’s you calling and not an unknown caller increasing your company visibility and to avoid those ignored calls during alarm notifications.

• Full integration between the central station automation software and the billing software. Customer level, system level and service level information are linked and automatically created. This includes updates and deletes if necessary. This insures real time synchronization between the systems, reducing occasional errors.
• The Universal Connector. This technology allows you to monitor almost anything. If it can communicate, it can be monitored. The Universal Connector allows Legacy to create alarms from an e-mail, text message, IP communicator, direct phone call via Caller ID, DVR motion alert, PC/Server monitoring software and more. The possibilities are endless. Dealers can leverage this technology to increase their monitoring scope, grow revenues and increase RMR by offering these new types of monitoring opportunities.
