Just two days before the announcement that Ascent Media Corporation acquired Monitronics International Inc., Frost & Sullivan recognized Monitronics with the 2010 North American Frost & Sullivan Award for Company of the Year. Based on its recent analysis of the alarm monitoring residential security market, Frost & Sullivan cited Monitronics’ consistent growth based on its industry-leading qualities in the face of a global financial crisis and downturn in the security industry as the crowning achievement for this recognition.
“Monitronics has been able to overcome critical factors such as cost, scalability, coverage, and jamming issues,” said Frost & Sullivan senior research analyst Neelima Sagar. “The company’s key differentiators are flexibility, reliability, enhanced customer service and responsiveness.”
