What This Means

What the Cox Homelife Shutdown Means for You

Cox has discontinued Homelife. New sign-ups have ended and support for existing systems is being phased out, so whether your service is winding down or you are canceling Cox Homelife yourself, you'll need a replacement. For homeowners across Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, and Summerlin, that raises a few real questions: Will my monitoring keep working? What happens to the equipment on my walls? And who do I call when I have questions?

Here's the good news. Losing your provider does not mean losing your protection, but don't wait for your monitoring to lapse. Switching now is a chance to move onto a better system with a local team that treats you like a neighbor, not a ticket number. That's where Sting comes in.

Why Sting

Why Vegas Homeowners Are Switching to Sting Alarm

Local and Owned Since 2003

We're not a national brand routing you through a call center in another time zone. We live here, we work here, and we've protected Las Vegas homes and businesses for over two decades.

Over 1,000 Five-Star Reviews

Vegas families and businesses have rated us at the top of our industry. That kind of trust is earned one same-day service call at a time.

One Vendor, Security and Fire

Sting delivers integrated home security and fire protection under one roof. One call, one team, one point of contact for everything that keeps your home safe.

White-Glove Service, Real People

Expert phone diagnostics, technicians who know your system because we built it, and a team that picks up when you need us. No apps yelling into the void.

Your Equipment

What About My Cox Homelife Equipment?

Fair question, and here's the straight answer. Cox Homelife runs on a locked panel tied to their service, so that panel gets replaced when you switch. That's a good thing. You move off a system you never really owned and onto a professional-grade panel that's truly yours.

As for your sensors, it depends on what's installed. During your free assessment, one of our technicians reviews your existing devices and reuses what we can, so you're not paying to replace anything that still works. You end up with a professionally installed home security system built around your home and monitored around the clock through our monitoring center, not a box you set up alone and hope for the best.

Know Your Options

Not All "Alternatives" Are the Same

When Cox leaves, you'll see two common suggestions. Here's how they really stack up.

The DIY Subscription Box

Mail-order kits you install yourself, then pay a monthly fee to monitor. If something goes wrong, you're the tech support. For many homeowners that's a downgrade from the professionally installed system they had, not a fix.

The National Call Center

Big names with big ad budgets and long wait times. When seconds matter, "we'll get someone out in a few days" is not an answer.

Your Local Vegas Team

Locally owned, professionally installed, and monitored around the clock through our monitoring center. Same-day service when you need it. A technician who knows your name and your system. Integrated security and fire from one provider.

Common Questions

Cox Homelife Switch: Common Questions

Who services Cox Homelife customers in Las Vegas?

Sting Alarm helps Las Vegas homeowners transition off Cox Homelife onto a professionally installed and monitored security system. We're locally owned, in business since 2003, with over 1,000 five-star reviews.

What happens now that Cox Homelife is discontinued?

Cox has stopped offering Homelife and is phasing out support. Your existing system may keep working for a while, but you'll want a plan before support and monitoring wind down. Switching to a local provider like Sting keeps your home protected without a gap.

Can I keep my Cox Homelife equipment?

The Cox panel is locked to their service, so it gets replaced with a professional panel that's truly yours. Many of your existing sensors can often be reused. We confirm exactly what stays and what gets upgraded during your free assessment.

Will there be a gap in my monitoring when I switch?

We plan the transition so your protection stays covered. Our team coordinates the changeover to keep you secure from Cox to Sting.

Is this the same as SimpliSafe or a DIY system?

No. DIY systems are kits you install and troubleshoot yourself. Sting is professionally installed by a local Las Vegas team and monitored around the clock through our monitoring center, with real technicians and same-day service.

How much does it cost to switch from Cox Homelife?

Every home is different, so we give you a clear quote up front after a free assessment, with no hidden fees. Right now, Cox Homelife customers who switch to Sting get a free video doorbell. We tell you exactly what we can reuse and what gets upgraded before any work begins.

Do I have to sign a long contract?

We keep it simple and explain any monitoring agreement clearly before you decide. No pressure and no fine-print surprises.

Do you remove my old Cox Homelife equipment?

Yes. Our technicians handle the switch, including replacing the locked Cox Homelife panel, and we reuse the sensors that make sense so you're not paying to replace anything that still works.
