Which SimpliSafe security system should I buy?

The SimpliSafe system is a Base Station with wireless sensors, a keypad, a siren and a smart lock.

The sensors and accessories send their signals to the Base Station. SimpliSafe states that Alexa and Google Assistant can arm the system and check its status but cannot disarm it, that these integrations need a supported monitoring plan, and that it does not integrate with HomeKit.
