Hello Mirna - Thank you for the positive remarks. If I may inquire, how could we improve our system so that it is more "tech savvy"? Would greatly appreciate any and all feedback on the matter. Thank you again for the kind words.

Honestly it's pointless. You are supposed to do a monthly check, they don't contact you to see if you are ready. Three year contract is because they know you'd go somewhere else.

For one it'''s a self installed system and they want to charge you as if they are a full service company. Secondly you have to apply for and pay for your own alarm permit. Lastly, if you want to cancel your service you have to pay whatever your remaining balance is for the duration of your contract.

Hey Karen, thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback on your experience. While we are a self- install security company, all of our equipment is preconfigured by our security experts to match your unique specifications. It comes ready to use right out of the box, so installing is generally only a matter of affixing it in place. If you’d like, please feel free to DM us with some additional details so that we may assist you with this. Thanks and please let us know if you have any other questions!

If you log into the camera it stops recording. Therefore I didn't get the footage of someone breaking into my garage. Also, the equipment will just stop working requiring me to call in to get them to reset it.

We thought it was a good deal but it turns out it was sold to us by a bogus salesman that wasn't actually a representative of your company. I never got a phone call back when I had an issue with it. I've had several issues and nobody has come out to take care of it.

Hey Joyce, we’re sorry to hear about this!! We always recommend calling the official company to check if they are official representatives before signing with door-to-door salesmen. Could you please DM us with some additional details so that we can look into this? Thanks and please let us know if you have any questions.
