I've learned a surprising amount of things during this "Let's install security cameras" adventure!…read moreEverything has been learned the hard way! Please read my review and don't repeat my mistakes! We are pretty avid DIYers and wanted something to record 24/7, but I didn't want to pay an annual fee for storage. A CCTV system seemed like the most affordable long term. My Hubby could run the wires and I'm not a total beginner with software set up. Harbor Freight had a very affordable unit, winner winner chicken dinner! NOPE, big fat nope! First of all their DVR wasn't playing nice with either my modem or router. I spent 3 entire days consulting Dr Google, Comcast, Asus, Harbor Freight tech support, and all the techy friends I could find. I tried to open port forwarding on the router on the correct ports. It was a nightmare! None of the companies were helpful. No one knew what the problem could be. Everyone pointing their finger at another company. I gave up, went back to Google to find a local install company in hopes they could help me. So much for a cheap set up since I would now have to pay for someone to come and fix what I couldn't figure out. Stay in Sight had the best website so I picked up the phone and called. James answered right away, assured me that I wasn't stupid, and instantly tried to help "walk me through" how to set up this strange DVR that wasn't even from his company!! Where do you find that level of customer care, or even human decency these days? Turns out the easiest thing was to get a functioning (non 3rd party) DVR that would actually set up easily. James was able to help with that. He shipped me out a super affordable DVR (cheaper than the Harbor Freight nonsense) and even asked his tech support pals to walk me through set up! Those tech support folks only do this DVR setup for a living, so it's super easy to understand and do what they tell you to on the phone. Plus they are totally located here in the USA, so no language barrier! The phone app is so much better than the other one I was trying to mess with. We had a few other calamities from the Harbor Freight unit, hard drive was bad, wires were glued in? The hard drive wires didn't even have clips on them! They were glued in! James kept in touch and followed me through each calamity to make sure I was okay. The end result of my lesson is that it would have cost around the same amount of money and MUCH less time and frustration just to buy locally through James! I always thought that the local security companies just catered to businesses and a system would be thousands of dollars. Nope! They have a wide range of items for every situation. Even affordable DIY units for stubborn people like us! Apparently a large amount of their clientele are slightly crazy people like me who mainly just want to watch their pets during the day! I don't live in the best of neighborhoods, very happy that I can now watch the outsides of my house. Of course the best part, is that I can watch my dogs sleeping on the couch! They have 2 cameras in that room. I can't recommend James and Stay in Sight enough! When anything goes wrong or we are ready to upgrade, I am staying AWAY from the internet and am just calling James. Everyone else should do the same too!

Thank you for everything over the years, Erica, Robyn, and crew.

The N & D Security team (Sally, Perry, Darren, John, and David) is incredible. From my first phone…read morecall with Sally and Perry to the installation with Darren, John, and David, the experience could not have been more seamless. Initial Communication: Before settling on N & D for my home security system, I did tons of research, including research into all the big home security companies. Unlike other companies, N & D Security does not lock you into a long-term contract, nor did they try to upsell me on products and services that were beyond the scope of my needs. Rather, Perry readily identified what would likely make sense for my home, asked incisive and poignant questions about my home security needs, and carefully listened to and thoughtfully answered all my questions. He then diligently followed up with a recommended package for my home. Perry's attention to detail, follow-up communications, and responsiveness was impeccable. And I was all the more impressed given the fact that N & D is a small team that essentially operates as a family-owned business. Installation: The installation could not have been more seamless. John, Darren, and David arrived promptly. They installed the security system and had me up and running in little to no time. I was thoroughly impressed by the service--the N & D team went above and beyond anything I could have expected. For example, in addition to setting up my home security system, Darren helped set up our doorbell camera and even attempted to help install smart locks throughout my home. Upon the immediate completion of the installation, John carefully explained how the system operates, patiently answered all my questions, and even gave me his personal number in the event I had any additional questions. After Installation: After completing the installation, Perry checked in again to ensure that all our needs were handled and that our system was up and running. In addition, the N & D team was incredibly diligent in completing additional follow up work I had requested. In sum, if you are looking for a top-notch home security system, N & D is a no brainer. They are a pleasure to work with and I can genuinely say that choosing them for our home security needs was one of the easiest decisions I've made.

Walk away and don't look back. Pye Barker is unreasonable to deal with when it comes to customer…read moresatisfaction. I tried to cancel service that was established by Royal Security who was then bought out by Altronics. Pye Barker refuses to honor the change of name that was approved by Altronics as the result of an estate settlement upon the death of my mother. The contract with Altronics clearly stated that the account number would remain the same, the monitoring period would remain the same and the remaining months left on the annual service would be credited as paid in full. Now they want to wipe away that time frame and claim the contract is being cancelled 7.73 months early. My relationship spans over 22 years going back to when we had another property under Royal Security. In less than a year with Pye Barker, my satisfaction went to total dissatisfaction. Stay away from Pye Barker and find a smaller security company with more personalized treatment!

The home did not have a wired electric doorbell which was required for my cameras, and Adam (owner of 1 Solution AV) was quick to reach out. I had initially asked for recommendations for electrician but appreciated that he reached out privately to explain what I would need done. Adam immediately offered to come over and look at what I would need done and provided a free estimate. His communication / response time was quick and professional. Throughout the estimate he was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. After receiving the quote, he provided his card and without pressuring whatsoever said to call if I was interested. I reached out the same day to get scheduled. He was again quick to respond and booked me within the same week. He even reached out again to help move my installation to a Sunday morning due to the weather forecast. The installation went smoothly and quickly, and he was professional throughout the entire experience. We had some hiccups with the security system equipment (no fault of his own) and he was quick to assist as I spoke to the security system customer service. I would highly recommend Adam and 1 Solution AV and will absolutely use again for any additional services as we get settled into our new home.
