A high quality security system, whether for homes or businesses, must be comprehensive, reliable, and responsive. And while services like ADT and Google Nest are household names in the security industry, bigger doesn’t always mean better.
Paraclete Security combines advanced technology with local insight, customization, and accountability, thereby offering homeowners and business owners protection that’s more personal, more stable, and more responsive than the big brands.
Local Knowledge, Local Commitment
Being local matters, especially when it comes to security solutions. Rooted in the Colorado community, Paraclete understands the neighborhoods, patterns, and safety needs unique to the area. This means that our local technicians are faster with installations, repairs, and on-site support, and you get direct communication, not a corporate call center with long wait times.
Another big difference between our local company and a corporation like ADT is that we are completely accountable to our community. Our success is tied to the safety of the same community that our employees live and work in, and we take pride in the human connection of our services where we ensure the security of our own neighbors that we see everyday. This connection is simply not possible with a large corporation located hundreds or thousands of miles away.
Personalized Protection vs. One-Size-Fits-All Packages

As a national company, ADT relies on standardized packages and rigid contracts designed for efficiency rather than a perfectly custom solution for your home or business. This leads to an unfortunate situation where you’re either paying for more than you need or not receiving the specific protection that your property requires.
With Paraclete, it all begins with a detailed phone consultation followed by an in-person visit by our technicians. From there, you can expect:
- Scalable, customized systems built around your property’s layout, risk level, and budget.
- Solutions that are adaptable for homes, retail spaces, offices, warehouses, and more.
- No “cookie-cutter” approach—every installation is engineered for real-world needs.
Our company also has access to the finest technology available, exceeding the capabilities of ADT in some instances. For example, our tech comes with advanced video analytics that track heat maps, motion, and behaviors with precision.
Additionally, our customers are able to leverage our attribute-based search to review live and recorded footage, while searching for specific indicators such as clothing colors, object types, and motion events. This is especially useful for businesses, since footage is stored securely in the cloud and events can be bookmarked and exported for HR, legal, or training use. In short, you’re not sacrificing anything, and you may actually gain more security benefits by opting for a local partner.
Where Big Does Not Mean Better
Since 2020, ADT is also known for its partnership with Google, offering Google Nest products for convenient, DIY remote monitoring. These inexpensive, easy-to-use offerings are attractive, but most people don’t realize that they rely heavily on third-party cloud servers. The risk here is that if those servers go down—or if Google changes service terms—your access, storage, or system performance could be interrupted.
Alternatively, Paraclete’s security systems are a bastion of stability. We use dedicated, smaller, (and therefore more reliable) servers, reducing downtime and dependency on staggeringly large server banks. Another benefit of using smaller servers is that it improves data security, as smaller servers tend not to attract the attention of hackers and cyber-thieves.
Secure Your Future With Paraclete
Paraclete Security was formed to bridge the gap between cutting-edge security systems and the trust that comes with local, personalized service. With Paraclete, you’re not just another account—you’re a neighbor worth protecting.
