They call you and work with you. It's easy to fix and put it together. It's easy to monitor with your phone and know what's going on with your home. It's a good company I would recommend to my friends.

Alex Pensacola, FL

The equipment isn't up to the par I believed it would be. The motion sensors aren't supposed to detect pets under 50 lbs and my pet is only 18 lbs and she sets it off. So I can't really set it if I leave my dog in the house.

The customer service has been pretty crappy. when I call the three or four times nobody leaves notes apparently to let the new person know what's going on. I still haven't received my second Visa card payment for setting up a second alarm. The control panel is way too quiet it's hard to hear throughout the house and they don't have any upgrade options they said I would have to buy another panel which is ridiculous!

Their motion sensors keep going off as false alarms but they are really easy to get a hold of. I like that they are the cheapest and include the most product and the app gives you access to the alarms.

Setup was easy. I feel safe and protected. Unfortunately, the main panel volume is too low. I turned it all the way up. The only resolution was to offer me another product to buy for $100. That was not within my budget considering I just purchased the home security system.

Poor experience in installation. Spent too much time trying to figure out how to self install. Do not see a savings from changing from current, especially since I had to do all the installation. Was charged for equipment when it was advertised equipment was free. I paid the same amount to Vivint for equipment, they installed, I am currently paying the same monthly change with a 3 year agreement while I only had one year with Vivint.

Sometimes the doorbell works and sometimes it doesn't work. They could have given me a little bit more information about how the system goes in and out. They also didn't tell me they would automatically be billing my credit card, they didn't let me know it was an automatic thing. They billed me before asking how me service was.

Right now my office door window is not working. I had sixteen sensors in my old home and they all worked fine, but in my new home I have had to replace two of them already. I do like the portability of the system and whenever I call the person who I talk to is able to take care of the issue I am calling about.

The equipment seems cheap, when it is hot, sometimes the sticky things fall off the window and therefore my alarm goes off. I do like that it is wireless and it is less money than the others I checked. Customer service always answers my questions.

The motion detectors and the door alarms work good. The cameras only have about a 60 degress angle viewing range, which in my opinion, a security camera needs at least a 180 view.
