Farhang Vacaville, CA

I installed everything myself, and they just configured the sensor over the phone. Plus, their agents were great. I do have to say that the sensors don't work properly from time to time. I've had to ask them to send me a new one, but besides that, it's all been good.

The equipment has been very exceptional. It was very simple to install; it was a self-install system. The coverage they offer for the price we pay, is great! In fact, that's the main reason we purchased the system.

They have been very good, every time that I have called them to add more sensors, or to replace sensors that are going bad. I never received the canned smoke to test the smoke detectors though. Besides that, every time the alarm goes off, they call me, the Police, and 2 family members as well. They've been very good about that.

Everything has worked out just fine, however, I did have a problem. I accidentally set the alarm off, and they called me promptly, but I couldn't get a hold of customer service or something. It kept cycling back to the main switch board. It bothered me that I couldn't get a hold of somebody that could help me.

It's very reliable, and affordable as well. Their customer support was always willing to help, anytime I had an issue or question. I installed the whole thing by myself, and some of it was actually easy to do, some of it was not.

It was easy to self-install, and it has a good price, so we like it! Plus, their agents have always been great! If we have technical issues, they stay on the phone until it's fixed. I think their box is a little obsolete, because we frequently have to upgrade the box. Otherwise, the equipment works pretty well.

The price is what really made me choose Protect America. Although the system is good, just like anything else, certain parts break or need replacement. Their customer support is only fair, because I really need someone to come out here every now and then to fix something, and they don't offer that. I've asked for a technician to come out, but they want to charge me an outrageous amount of money. I'm not happy about that, but I'm not changing either.

This was the most affordable option at the time I was looking for a security system, and so far, they've been great! Every time I call, they answer my questions. They put you on hold sometimes, but that's okay. I also installed the whole thing myself, and it wasn't so bad. The equipment hasn't had any issues either. As a matter of fact, they just upgraded me to a digital system, free of charge! Their customer service is really good, they just have an answer to all my questions.

It was fairly easy to install. Of course, you have to do it yourself, but it was fairly easy. Plus, you can call them for any help you may need, and they stay on the phone with you, until the problem is fixed. They simply address the problem.

Customer support has been outstanding. Whenever I called they were very helpful, and they're very knowledgeable as well, so it's been very good. I haven't had a problem with it. I've had some false alarms, and they do exactly what they say they're going to do. I travel a lot, so I really rely on the system, and it's been great!

So far, so good! I've had some good experiences with Protect America. It's worked out well, and they gave me step by step instructions to install the system myself. They also send out somebody if there is new equipment that I feel like somebody should do it for me.

The main reason I chose Protect America was because they promised they would never go over $25 a month. I switched from another security company to Protect America, so there was no installation process. They've been right on the ball; I've never had a problem that they haven't solved right away.

The customer support has been really excellent. I installed the system myself, and it was very easy to do, with the assistance of their people. I've had a few times when the keypad didn't function properly, and they immediately replaced it. They handle any problems I may have, right away.

I'm just happy with them so far, I don't have any complaints. They were the first wireless provider, so that's the main reason I've been with them for over 15 years. I'm happy with the service.

I wouldn't say their customer support is'nt the greatest. Nothing happens unless you pursue them. I had to call 3 times once for the exact same problem. One of the detectors kept going off, and after a few tries, they finally sent me a replacement.

My customer support with Protect America has been great, it's been really good. I just wanted a security company and that's the company that was available. The equipment is excellent, and with the self-installation, I did install it myself. I think the prices are reasonable; it's a good price with their service.

Customer service is very good! They always pick up the phone, and there's always somebody willing to help. If someone doesn't help, or cannot help at the time, they escalate it to a supervisor, and they always get back to you on time. I have had Protect America for at least 8 years now, and it's been excellent!

Their customer support team consumes your time a bit, but they're very helpful. It did take a lot of time to install the system, but I guess it was worth it. I do have to say that the equipment looks outdated. They should update it.

We're senior citizens, and were able to install the system ourselves, so that's good. Plus, it's worked just fine so far. The only thing I'd like to say is that I'd like to have a light for my yard sign. The one they sent me didn't last long at all.

I really haven't had too much opportunity to use them. My alarm went off by accident once, and I couldn't shut it off. The police showed up, and the Protect America team convinced them that everything was okay. Besides that, I haven't had much interaction with them. I don't know how I would describe my experience with them, because I can't stop the alarm from beeping every 10 to 15 minutes. Actually, I would only think about activating it, if I were to go out of town.

Installing the system seemed pretty simple. They shipped everything to me for free, and gave me 10 door and smoke alarms. Programming the equipment itself took a little longer than expected, but it was overall great. The only thing I can say is that they seem to be very helpful!

Protect America's customer support has always been very helpful; however, I wish they had wireless cameras that you can install. I've been pretty happy, although installing it was a little difficult because of little sticky things. Besides that, I've never had any problems with them.

I've been with them for over 10 years now, and it's worked alright. The only thing I don't like is their battery. It tends to die quick, and I end up having to pay every time their battery dies. That just makes me think their warranty is not so good. They also charge for everything, so even though you have low rates with them, their equipment and supplies are charged. I originally selected them because they offered the lowest rate, however, I think the service is average, considering you even have to pay for the signs in the front yard!
