Default in the market for new alarm

My aladdin alarm has only caused me problems since I bought it. I am in the market for a quality 2 way paging system, remote start does not matter. Money is not really an issue here, anything under 700 or so will be within budget. Please give me some input here...I thought about the viper responder (due to someone else here recommending it) and also looked at the compustar which doesn't look that great, but what do I know. Help! (btw, I will be having this alarm installed at it's respective dealer)

Compustar, is one of the best alarms i have ever used, Viper is ok but not up to the compustar level.

Go with compustar and it will be worth your time

go with the viper, people have tried to steal several cars that ive had over the years, but they never did(rookies), all the cars were equipted with different vipers, all with esp. But to tell you the thruth if someone really wants your car, theyre going to take it. i would just get some really good insurance with full coverage and a viper if you can afford to do both, just my 2cent. peace

Get the new DEI alarms with pager, best alarms on the market are the one made DEI and the new alarm with pager won't disappoint you.

I don't recommend compustar, but you can experience it for youself. Just go around to you audio/security stores and ask about Compustar alarms and you'll get nothing but about them. Some shops around my area even refuse to install them because they said they were crap and they didn't want people coming back blaming them when the have problems saying it may be a bad install when it's acutally the alarm.

I remember the aladin alarms....when they first hit the market, everyone was saying they were the **** and all but now I just laugh at them. Anyway, don't feel bad, you're not the only one with a messed up aladin alarm. I seem many people complain about them.
