I have a 91 year old mother who has Alzheimer's and I was afraid of her walking out when I was sleeping so my cousin recommended them. Customer service was wonderful he took his time he explained everything. It's a great company. I'm very happy with it so far.

Everyone's been very informative and very friendly. Very quick to get back with us if we need anything. It's very effective equipment and very easy to install. We didn't even need a technician, we just did it ourselves. The best thing about using Protect America for home security at home is that we know that our possessions are safe.

The only problem I have with Protect America is when you go online to chat with somebody, they give you a time that they'll be with you and it doesn't happen. Other than that, I like it. The service I get is excellent. I haven't had any problems with the system. The alarm covers my windows and doors and I feel safer with it.

The company has the customer's interest. The technicians are very helpful and go out of their way to make sure the customer is satisfied and that everything is working properly. The security equipment is easy for the user to hook up. It is pretty straight forward, reliable, and affordable.

Seem like they are a reliable company. I've never had the system go down. They are using newer technology than their competitors. I am paying the same amount to get the new equipment. It is really easy to use, they have a mobile app, which is really convenient.

They've been great so far. It is easy to use and easy to put together. They have motion sensors and I love that. I feel confident and safer because of the quality of the service. They're friendly. They care and listen. They really wanted to build the right security for our house.

I was able to get window and door sensors for every window and door in my house so I can be secure when I am in the house or away. The equipment is not as nice as ADT but the price is definitely cheaper so there is some value. The portable key fob is definitely cheaply made. Customer service is excellent. They listen to what you need.

They're great. It is easy to install and I love that I can use the app so if I forget to set an alarm, I can set it from a distance. It makes me feel better that I know if it is on or off. They don't answer their phones every tome you call because you have to hold a little longer than I would like.

They are reliable and it is good quality, it hasn't fallen apart. It gives me peace of mind when I am at home during the day. Their customer support is very patient and receptive and pretty much anything I wanted, they would do for me. I am very frustrated about being locked in a contract.

Everything was explained to me thoroughly by customer service and that is why I picked them. I had ADT and they were lacking but Protect America seems to be very aggressive and willing to help. There are still there for me and appreciate that. It all works as planned though forty five dollars a month is a little high of a price.

They were very patient. They take all the time that you need and they made it very easy without having a service person come and set it up for me. It's all very modern and up to date. They do not raise your monitoring fees over the course of your contract with them and that truly cemented my interest.

I think the service was pretty good in terms of the response and the information that they provide for better understanding. It was pretty easy to set up and it was very user friendly. We've only used it for a couple of our houses and they've been pretty comparable to what we had in the past and we are very comfortable with the service.

They always resolve any issues. Protect America is very helpful and professional. Everything is working so far. I think the best thing is that they do hourly checks on all the systems, that way you know everything is in constant working order and if their system check fails that they'll send you a free replacement part.

The customer service and package overall value is good. Customer service is pretty quick. I didn't have to pay any installation costs. Overall I think it was pretty good service. We got disconnected a couple of times and instead of seeing the entire installation through one phone call, they request to call them back after you finish the installation yourself and then you have to wait to get back in the queue line to be able to talk to somebody. It had the newest technology. There are multiple access points through the phone app which makes it easy.
