As you can see, Connect America® medical alert systems are around $12 cheaper per year than Alert1. That said, there are a few crucial features they leave out. Connect America® does not include multilingual protection or a Thayer certification. More importantly, they do not list whether phone operators stay on the line until help arrives. We think our members should have constant support in their moments of need. For the most user-friendly features available, choose Alert1.
