I've been a customer with Protect America for a long time, over twenty years. They're professionals and they're courteous. They use state of the art equipment now. It's very easy to work with and they have a good system.

Protect America was responsive when I had issues with setting it up and with problems when it was not working properly. The system has been reliable and works properly. It's an easy to use system and all the parts are all guaranteed in cases of problems during the life of the contract.

There is a wait time when I have made calls and are wanting to get information and being put on hold. It takes a long time it seems like in many cases. I made a call recently to cancel one of my house systems and I really got a run around on that one. I've had no problems with the equipment. I have the wireless system and I really like it.

This product was very easy to install. The service provided at installation was very helpful. It is easy to use and set up. My only issue is that it takes far too long to make a monthly check going around to beach window and door checking individually

Solid security system, easy to set up, fair prices, excellent customer service. The phone app is clunky and you can't set up automatic alarms, ie, you can't enable alarm to arm based on a schedule, so you always have to manually arm the system.

Customer service said that the installation would be very quick and easy but it took us a while to do it and had to redo it a lot. The sales people sold it to be a lot better than it actually is.

Luis Columbus, OH

I think the company is excellent and their veteran discount makes its very affordable. Customer support was excellent. I was supposed to get a call from their finance office the day after it was installed and it was at least three day and they did not call me back. The adhesive tape on the back of the unit it very cheap, I have already had one false alarm because the of the tape.

If you’d like, could you please DM us with some additional details so that we can review your account and get you some help with these issues?

The set up and install has been easy. The price point is affordable. The system is user friendly. The phone app has had issues of being offline from time to time but I've noticed some improvements on that working better. The warranty on the equipment was a big sell point, along with the locked in price and the system can go with you.

The best thing is the quick service when they communicate with you. After the second false alarm they'd call you and ask to make sure that it's a false alarm within maybe two seconds after the incident.

I chose them because they had really good ratings on Consumer Reports. The alarm system could be louder so we could hear it through out the house. They have been very helpful on getting the system set up and learning how to run it.

They didn't give me all my sensors so I had to order it twice and still it's still missing something. So far everything s working good, I can look it on my phone all day. I like that I can lock it on my phone. They need to let the people know that it does include in the sensors when they order. I'm happy overall.

I feel safe in my home. The quality is good. It is a lot more durable, more solid than the ones in the past. The person that helped me to install the equipment was very patient and extremely helpful. It really would be better if there was somebody from the company that would install the equipment instead of having the homeowner.

Pretty much everything has worked and right now it logs all that stuff just for the security and that everything is working. I like that it's wireless, no landline.

They've been able to take care of everything that I've needed every time I call. I think the cameras could be better but the installation on the other equipment is fine. The best part about Protect America is the mobile features and being able to control everything over the mobile app.

We have three different alarm panels in two different locations and we were able to get it all merge together in one that I can track or control for my app on my phone and on my computer. Once it's set up, it's dependable and their response is good when the alarm goes off.

The people are very nice and courteous when you call them. The panel box is a little bit on the large side so it's not really easy to blend in with anything in the home. I wish that I didn't have to do door sensors and the window sensors. If I remove one of them to get my bill lower that would be nice.
