Fred was awesome. He took care of every need I needed. Fred also made me feel like I was part of the family. Fred made me feel like I wanted to travel to Texas and see him and have lunch at a barbecue restaurant.

Salesperson mislead the facts of switching from previous provider. Now being charged for October 2026 by previous provider and Brink’s. Called and spoke to a Brink’s representative and was informed I would be refunded by Brink’s for October 2026; no refund received. Extremely dissatisfied with Brink’s.

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.
