Users who are subscribed to service through Surety have access to the System Manager feature through the Surety login.
The System Manager is an account management tool we developed for Surety users to have advanced account controls at their fingertips.
Surety users can update their service plan and add or remove service features on the fly with the System Manager.
Depending on your system and service plan you also have access to reset your panel installer code, reboot your system remotely, run Z-wave equipment checks, etc.
The System Manager also includes Professional Monitoring account controls for immediate access to edit your contact list, call order, and advanced optional features like 2-Way Voice, as well as place your Professional Monitoring account on test mode whenever needed.
Where can I access System Manager?
System Manager is access via your Surety login.
Login to your Surety account
From the dashboard menu, select System Manager
Next, enter the associated account’s Alarm.com login credentials.
If you have more than one service account, choose the correct account you wish to access
Once System Manager is accessed, you will see the service address, account holder name, and a series of tabs that can be accessed.
