Suprata for security and alarm contractors

Security installs and monthly monitoring billing, handled

An alarm company earns its keep twice: once on the install and every month after. Suprata quotes the system, schedules the install and bills the monitoring fee on autopay. Every panel, camera and sensor at the site stays on record.

What a normal week looks like without the right system

We hear these from security and alarm contractors all the time. Here is what Suprata does about each one.

Monitoring fees are our whole business. When a card fails, nobody notices for three months.

Monitoring is a subscription on autopay, and failed payments show on the Accounting Health page until someone cures them.

We quote a camera system and the customer wants to compare four cameras against eight.

Options go on one proposal, and the customer signs and pays a deposit when they choose.

The tech goes to a service call and has no idea what panel or what cameras are on site.

The Equipment General form records each device at the site, and the account shows it on every visit.

Commercial customers want yearly inspections on the fire alarm and the access panel, and we lose track.

A service agreement schedules the yearly inspection and creates the job each year.

A day in the life with Suprata

Here is how the work flows when every call, job, booking and payment lives in one place.

  1. 7:30 am

    Failed payments

    The office opens Accounting Health and sees two monitoring payments that failed overnight.

  2. 8:00 am

    Card swap

    The customer gets a portal link and swaps the expired card on autopay.

  3. 9:30 am

    Install

    A crew installs an eight-camera system and records each camera and the recorder on the site's equipment list.

  4. 12:00 pm

    Proposal

    A store owner gets three camera packages on one proposal and signs the middle one.

  5. 2:15 pm

    Trouble ticket

    A customer reports a zone fault. The ticket gets a priority and becomes a service job.

Does Suprata connect to our monitoring center?

Not out of the box. Suprata runs your customers, installs, service and billing. The open API lets a developer connect other systems.

Can monthly fees charge themselves?

Yes. A subscription with autopay charges the saved card or bank account each month and sends a receipt.

Can customers pay by bank transfer?

Yes. ACH works through Stripe or USIO, and returns are detected automatically with the return code.

Read: Setting up ACH and when to prefer it

Can we keep a list of equipment at each site?

Yes. Record each device with the Equipment General form, and the site's history builds with every visit.
