I have several of the older units (Zwave) that do not communicate with each other, but otherwise seem to work well. Hoping they do as advertised - when one alarms (audible) they all alarm.
I also set up SmartThings to turn on all lights when a unit goes off. I know this works because my smoke alarm is often my wife's kitchen timer for cooking.

I don't have a hardwired system, I already have a CO alarm on each floor that I bought last year. I like the idea of getting some interconnection between my floors. Is having 6 CO/smoke alarms overkill?

And the non-z-wave alarm in this deal can also be interconnected.
Also, in CA, hardwired with battery backup is only required for new construction or new renovation that requires permit
So, both these batter powered z-wave or non z-wave are perfectly legal to be used in old houses.

I have this pack, and it augments my hardwired units and doesn't replace them. I like having something that'll notify me if I'm not home.
Any controller beyond A simple remotes will qualify. I use HomeSeer, which can also integrate with several security systems. Hubitat isn't a bad one, though with only one model, if you outgrow it you are stuck.
I have my homeseer turn on all the lights during a smoke alarm event and send me text messages and emails.
The ability to trigger the siren is up to each smoke detector manufacturer. Of course there are also zwave sirens/sounders/ an ouncers you can buy separately. I have two such devices that also play chimes for the doors opening, pre-recorded MP3s with tornado/flood warnings, and messages about the laundry. (I tend to forget about the wet clothes)
