Both Ladies yesterday (30th) and today July 1st provided me with their upmost attention! The both were "patient" understanding and made sure that my issue at had would be either fixed or resolved by a visit from the Technician. The are true pioneers in terms to excellent customer service!

My representative was wonderful, but I found that I signed a 5 year contract and didn't know it, until she let me know. The price in the Email stated the price, which would be less than I was currently paying if I signed up for 5 years. I didn't see the small print which brought it up to much more. A scam. She had nothing to do with that and I feel deceived by Brinks. Again, the woman I talked to was terrific.

I like how reliable their security system is , gives me total control over the house. This company Vivint has provided me with advanced features which i absolutely needed like hd cameras , motion sensors that works execellently and also includes smart locks. They also provided detailed guides on how to operate and manage security system easily.

Canceling service from Vivint is a NIGHTMARE!! It took me over an hour to accomplish it. The first 3 calls no one answered. I then found a different phone number and finally got someone. I was asked a ton of questions then they transferred me to someone who asked the same questions and, believe it or not, I was transferred again!! And (no surprise) I was asked the same questions. I guess me saying “I want to cancel service” is too confusing for them. HORRIBLE SHADY COMPANY!
The Final Word
Brinks and Vivint are both good companies, but the overall best appears to be Vivint with more home automation and better features. That said, it's our pleasure to give you accurate, up-to-date, and relevant information and it's up to you to choose the company that best matches your situation and needs.
