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.

They ship the equipment to you and tell you how to install it and then once you get everything install they go through it on the panel. It was easy.

Whenever I call with an issue or question, they are responsive and friendly. It would be nice if they had a shorter contract though.

When someone unexpectedly entered my home and set off the alarm the police were not notified. Luckily, it was the apartment maintenance staff.

Charging for replacement things when it is not your fault. I do not like how the main unit plugs into the wall instead of being installed into the wall.

They're not very customer service oriented. For whatever reason, I can't access my panel through the app anymore. The camera has an SD card but of course I have to reformat the card instead of just deleting it. I think they should come out and install it rather than making the customer do everything.

I have problems with my alarm system, and they tell me that it's offline and they wouldn't award me for the whole month, they only gave me $10. I thought I was secure, but somehow it was offline so I wasn't secure and they still wanted to charge me.
