The IQ Panel's remote services are powered by Alarm.com, the industry's most reliable, advanced and comprehensive interactive services platform.  The IQ Panel is the first to support WiFi to the Alarm.com back-end and a built-in Alarm.com Image Sensor radio. "Alarm.com has built a platform to support an innovative partner ecosystem and continues to drive growth in the interactive services domain that we pioneered," said Alison Slavin, co-founder and vice president of product management, Alarm.com.  "It's exciting to see an innovative new partner like Qolsys embracing our proven platform from the ground up."
