Overall Rating: 2.6 / 5 (Average)

Freedom Alert offers a quality piece of equipment with a distinct business model.

With no contracts, monthly fees, or monitoring costs, their product stands out in an otherwise crowded marketplace.

It is limited, however, due to the lack of cellular and GPS compatibility.

That said, it’s alert programmability means that those who need to alerted will be, without an intermediary.

It’s unique sales structure of a one-time fee is great for those who envision long-term use.

The system, which features a basic 600-foot range and a lower than average battery life, leaves a certain amount of functionality to be desires.

Anyone looking for an affordable medical alert system with a DIY mindset will find that Freedom Alert delivers exactly as advertised.
