"Very knowledgeable and professional crew who arrived a few minutes early and also came prepared with shoe covers so they would not track any dirt throughout the house. Got everything done in about an hour and also give us options/ideas for other lighting projects that we have around the home. Plan to use them again on at least two more big projects"

"I self installed our FrontPoint system. It went smoothly and my questions were answered efficiently and professionally by the FrontPoint staff. I would highly recommend FrontPoint as a home security system."
All went well, up and running in no time at all. It is very user friendly, you don't need a PHD to operate this system and we feel secure and safe knowing that we are being protected 24/7.
"We like their service. We haven't had any problems. They are very good. This was the first time we've had an alarm/security system in our home. The supplier is ADT. I like that I can set my alarm every night before I go to bed."
"About 4 years ago I need my home protected by something other than my dog while I was not home looking for a job. I needed something affordable, simple to use and install my self as my house was not prewired. I found Protect America and it had all I needed and more. Over the years I have added to my system more sensors, motion detectors, camera's, carbon monoxide sensor, and monitored smoke detectors. All of it was simple enough to do with some help with their Installation Technician walking me though everything on the phone. I have had other companies try to get me to switch to them, but what I have works and they could not beat the price so I told them no thanks."
"I communicated with Rob Calbo for services of a background check with CSI Secure Solutions and he was fantastic. He spoke with me in a very professional manner and put me at ease right away. The process was seamless and my request was delivered very efficiently. Within just a few hours of providing them with information, I was able to get feedback. Rob took the time to speak with me and answered all of my questions. I will definitely be using them again in the future should the need arise, and I would definitely recommend them as being very efficient, professional and reliable.
"The system is great and loaded with features designed to deliver the most important needs of a home : safety & security. Andres Dixon the technician who installed the entire system was great & did a wonderful job. He was meticulous, methodical & patient during the 5+ hours it took to complete the installation. Listen carefully to their marketing person when trying to sell (filter the sweet talk & focus on deliverables) to avoid getting confused."
"Historically, ADT was the first security system in the U.S. They've been around for over 140 years. That's pretty impressive. So, not for nothing, are they credited with really knowing what they're doing. And I believe the staying power is because it's an excellent service. In this dangerous and very frightening world we all live in, ADT adds a level of security that is, to say the least, comforting. Finally, you will be in good hands with the entire team at ADT. Highly recommend this service."
