FAQ: Confused by "Regular" Hub and "ADT" SmartThings Hub. Need clarification (2019)

For professional monitoring, you will need the ADT hub, so there isn’t a choice given your requirements. The sensors that contribute to the “alarm” portion must be the ADT sensors, and are purportedly more reliable as they use non-HA device frequencies. For “no-alarm” things, you can use compatible Zigbee and Zwave devices.
