ᐅ Window sensors are installed. Is the Fibaro security system reliable?

Good morning and Happy New Year 🙂
Currently, the electricians are working hard on our shell construction, and we still have the opportunity to have cables installed for a kind of "basic alarm system."
It doesn’t need to be very complicated or extensive, but at least the windows (the loggia is a bit of a sensitive spot since it might be accessible via the garage roof) should be secured. So, if a window is forced open, an alarm should trigger, along with a visible siren with a light signal somewhere.
Reed switches on windows and doors are available, and these will be connected with a loop circuit.
A cable for an external siren will be installed. Other than that, we are quite open to whether to use a wireless system or something else.
While browsing online, I came across the system from Fibaro. Is something like that any good?
Or does anyone here have experience securing windows this way, and if so, which system do you use?

OK, I understand... Are there any systems that allow the possibility to add additional wireless controls afterwards? I hope it’s clear what I mean...
In case we find out that adding a sensor or something else would make sense in one or another spot?
But the cables for the modules that we are already sure will be installed will definitely be laid!
