5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent DIY security system, December 4, 2010
This review is from: PPROKTE - Visonic Powermax Pro Advanced Home Security System (Electronics)
The Powermax Pro is an excellent DIY home security system. The one I purchased had the built-in cellular (GSM), Powerlink and X-10. It's not incredibly intuitive to configure at the panel, but once you get the feel for where everything is in the menu it's really pretty simple. The package didn't include a 21 dollar two-way powerline interface or the .83 cent RJ11 data connector cable for it, which was disappointing. I'll have more information on that below. I purchased the Powerlink Pro from an Amazon vendor, but made the vast majority of the other purchases through home security store (google for link). They are pretty knowledgeable about the product and all its accessories and knew about the powerline X-10 interface required cable.
About the integral GSM module:
The GSM module is definitely useful as it serves as a good back up caller in case a burglar were to cut your land line prior to breaking in. The GSM module works with a GSM SIM card that you need to purchase... Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars I'm not so happy, October 4, 2011
This review is from: PPROKTE - Visonic Powermax Pro Advanced Home Security System (Electronics)
My experience with the Power Max Pro was not nearly as pleasant as the other reviewer here. In particular, the GSM functionality left something to be desired -- I could receive phone and text messages from it, but I could not call in or text commands. The unit never "answered" incoming calls or requests. There were also other problems with the GSM, or perhaps the documentation was incorrect. If you search other review web sites, you'll see that others have had problems with the GSM, both the old version and the new "built in" one.

Note that I did not buy this unit from Amazon, so they are completely in the clear here. The place I did buy it from is a well known CA company who does not stand behind the product, further adding to my frustration.
