"I was on the market for a security system and this one seemed easy enough to install.......went through the process and some of the window sensors were not working. I called Customer Support who was very friendly and we went through the entire process again...this time other window sensors did not work. This went on for a week or so...then the door senors stopped working....than the motion sensor stopped working...at no time in over a month did I have a fully operational security system. As I was about to return the system I was told they have "new" sensors and they just realized they received a bad batch and are working with another company.....Gave it a try....and same issue returned....some sensors worked....some didn't. I finally returned the system and stopped getting emails.....only to find that they were still billing my credit card even after I returned the equipment. Very nice people and very understanding.....unfortunately their product is not up to par. While we do have a large home, it's an open concept and the sensors that weren't working were no more than 15ft away from the base. The previous owners of my house had a wireless system with no issues at all.....I'm going to be using that company going forward."

Plus, we do it for as little as $99 down with monthly payments as low as $34.99. At Uxari, you will talk to a real person when you have a question, 7 days a week. So go ahead, start enjoying your new life style, knowing answers to all your questions are only a call or an e-mail away. And the best part is all of our services come with a 30-day, risk-free trial.

"The Smart Home features they installed, such as thermostat and door locks, etc. do not always work. For example, the Honeywell thermostat can no longer be operated from our phones and is difficult to install. Remote door locks are also unpredictable."

When we opened our doors in 1997, we had one goal in mind: to design custom integrated home security systems based entirely on the vision and needs of each of our clients. To that end, we decided we would provide the best security equipment available, offer the best possible customer service to our clients, and make security systems accessible and affordable to families and business owners. We’re proud to say that this driving philosophy remains the same – over 38,000 customers later. We continue to listen carefully to each of our customers before designing an integrated security system to meet their needs. At GuardMe Security, we take pride in our dedicated staff of trained professionals who serve as the foundation for our company. Each member of our staff does whatever it takes to exceed our customers’ expectations and deliver the highest quality products, installation, and service. Additional DBA - Guard Me Inc. Additional phone number - (732) 583-8445.

"They installed a camera and security system for me. The security system mostly works- though there'd been some weirdness here and there, but they are very slow at responding to help with system configuration issues. The install also took ~2x the time it should have due to poor planning on their part. The real issue are the cameras - poorly, incorrectly installed, and a sloppy job at that. I made my displeasure known - they are useless when it rains or snows - and they refuse to do anything about it. Add to that a 2x markup on end-of-life equipment, and I'm out. I'll end up replacing them myself and redoing the install job when the weather gets nicer. Long story short: when my monitoring agreement is up, I will move my business to another (DMP) integrator."

For more than 25 years, customers across the southeast have trusted CPI to protect their families, homes and businesses. Our easy to use inTouch app provides you remote access to your security system plus integrates door locks, lights, thermostats and cameras for a smart home solution designed for your lifestyle. Our professionally trained staff and audio/video verification mean the fastest response times for you. Protection you can count on. Conveniences you'll love.

"The install was fine, however one of the devices was defective and failed 3 months of use. The first customer service representative stated a replacement would be mailed out immediately. Did not happen. The next two reps stated that it had to come from a warehouse and could take up to two weeks to arrive. They were unapologetic and all gave conflicting information. I paid for a defective device and they had no way of expediting a replacement. We previously used ADT and never had these kinds of issues. I got drawn in by the slick tv ads but the customer service after the fact is very poor. Considering going back to ADT."

"Before you put a deposit down for garage doors, make sure you are ready to wait over 6 months to call and find out they don't have them only to be told they are ready to be picked up. Then wait another 3 months to call and get the same story. Then call another week later and get told they are picking them up and will put in the next week. Then call them and find out they are ready to be picked up. They don't call you. You have to call them to find out whats going on. They have put us In a bind. They told us 120 days out.

Home Automation questions, answered by experts

While smart doorbells offer security and convenience, they come with disadvantages. Most non-wired options rely on a stable internet connection, making them vulnerable to outages. The same applies to wired devices that depend on power, but most models have a backup battery. There is also the privacy issue, as these devices constantly capture video and audio around the front door, which could be a pro or con. Considering these factors is essential before moving forward with installation.

You should always install cameras at exterior doors and windows. Other areas where you should place cameras are your front and back yards, the garage and driveway, common living areas, hallways and staircases, and the basement. Remember, you can start with a small Wi-Fi security camera system and always add more cameras if needed.

Yes, you can use both presence and motion detectors in your home. They serve different purposes—presence detectors are great for smart home integration, ensuring lights come on (and stay on) when you enter a room. Motion detectors excel at security, alerting you to unexpected movement. By combining them, you’ll create the best of both worlds, smart comfort and solid security.

Yes, a DIY security system can qualify for home insurance discounts, as long as it includes key features like cameras, motion detectors, or alarms that effectively deter break-ins. While insurers often lean towards professionally monitored systems, they generally value any proactive measures you take to boost your home’s security. Just make sure your system is properly installed, and keep your insurer in the loop about its features and any monitoring systems you’ve set up.

Smart thermostats allow remote control, energy savings, and detailed usage tracking through mobile apps.
