Always there when you need them most! I highly recommend them for their knowledge and professionalism.

Thank goodness I've stayed in touch with Andre "The Camera Guy" all these years. He recently upgraded the cameras at my East Oakland home, and today, he did an upgrade at my office in San Leandro. Time flies, and technology gets so much better. The cameras behind my home recently helped solve two separate incidents....a fender bender caused by Waste Management in the alley and a break-in next door! But, equally important, is the fact that the cameras he recently installed at my son's house in West Oakland foiled another break-in. They're all high definition, so it was easy to identify the perpetrator. Andre also installed a monitored alarm system for my son, and mine will be next. Way better than ADT! No one in the Bay Area has these skills. I feel so blessed right now. read more

I am beyond disappointed with AG Media Solutions. I had an appointment for an estimate on Friday May 26, 2017. Andre was running late but I wasn't too bothered since he sent a text to let me know he'd be late. He ended up being even more late than planned. When he finally arrived-the meeting and estimate went great. Andre was very nice and appeared knowledgeable and I was prepared to proceed with installation. Since Monday May 29th was a holiday, he told me to expect my estimate on Tuesday May 30th and that he could do the installation that same week. TWO WEEKS PASSED and I never heard anything from Andre. I texted him on Monday June 12th and asked if he had forgotten about my estimate. He responded on Tuesday June 13th blaming "new assistance" in the office and that my contact information must have gotten lost. I might have believed this except for the fact that he had my number in his phone AND I had written my email on the paper he took notes on (regarding cameras and access to crawl spaces). He then promised to provide me with my quote the following morning- "first thing in the morning". I'll be damned if I didn't have to contact him three days later asking for my quote. The following day I received the estimate to the email I had provided earlier (funny- didn't he lose that?!). Anyway- after he showed how unreliable he was- I decided to go with another company who was actually happy to have my business and respond in a timely manner (and ended up being $400 less expensive with an additional camera). I'm glad Andre has enough business that he can blow off potential clients in this manner however I will not be one of them. After I told him that I wouldn't be using his company for the reasons explained, he responded with an apology and excuses of how his business is growing and he can't keep up. Well Andre- Business 101 will tell you not to offer services you cannot provide. If he had told me he was far too busy for another job I would've understood and moved on to the next person. However- he strung me along and made promises he couldn't deliver. Don't be fooled with Andre's charm, you'll be left waiting wondering what happened. read more

I design and calibrate high end HT's but I cannot build them. I needed someone who could build my vision, not sell me more equipment(I already had it). I called 5 installers before Andre, and none would work with me because I know what I am doing. When I met Andre and showed him what I wanted to do, he salivated, put on his creative cap, and we both jump in together to give my HT(and future mixing studio) a major upgrade. Andre my like myself is very meticulous, so we melded together beautifully. He went the extra mile to do things as precisely as I asked, and the results were nothing short of fantastic. I am so looking forward to working with Andre again on upgrading my smaller HT to Atmos sound and 4K very soon. He was such a pleasure to work with and went the extra mile to give me exactly what I wanted....and the price was right! Andre, you are a genius...and will be hearing from me soon! read more

Hired AG Media Solutions about a month or so back. Its been on my mind that I've not posted a review and have felt convicted for not doing so since Andre and AG Media Solutions did such an professional, incredibly wonderful job installing interior and exterior cameras at my Oakland home. Andre is a great listener who totally "got" what I wanted, asked pointed questions when needing any clarification and in the end assured me he totally understood my needs - which included not having any exposed wires that could be easily cut or cameras that could easily be tampered with. The end resulted in my ABSOLUTE TOTAL SATISFACTION!!! Andre's workmanship definitely demonstrates skill, pride and passion for what he does. He cleaned up - even vacummed area where dust fell; Interior wiring was ran behind walls thereby concealing ALL wiring! I AM OVERJOYED and my lost faith is restored in Contractors simply because this 1 Contractor did what he said he would/could do and did it amazingly well! All this - and a reasonable price as well? Admittedly a bit skeptical at first because I had hired Fry's Electronics (Concord) a year or so prior. Fry's made a complete mess & obviously takes no pride in their install workmanship, and in my humble opionion has no business in the 'security camera install business. They left tons of wiring exposed everywhere... and said it was as good as it could get. They promised concealment yet non... I will attempt to post pics of my Fry's install debaucle - which Andre at AG Media Solutions re-did and made all better. I'm not normally one to post reviews (This is only my 2nd ever), but I do read them. This company did such an amazing job and I am sooooo pleased with the quality of their work that I am compelled to inform the world without reservation (especially those in need of Security Cameras) of this honest, hardworking gentleman who does exceptional work. read more

Andre and his crew are THE BEST, most efficient and cost-effective way to secure your property in Oakland. I was quoted at about $2,500 but ADT for less service and more headache- AG Media Solutions provided more services (4 cameras versus 2!), faster and at a fraction of the cost. Andrew was able to help me within a few days and was very sympathetic to my security concerns. All the men on his crew were friendly, polite and respectful. They left no mess and my cameras are placed in strategic locations that fit with the aesthetic structure of my home. Everything they did was A+ from being prompt and courteous on the phone to the job they did and all communication afterwards. Once you are their client, you are always their client- they will help you out and answer questions even after the job is done. So go with these guys if you live in the Bay Area- I am so grateful I called them! I can see my house from a monitor in my home, my smart phone and the computer- they set everything up and trained me how to use it and answered all my questions. CALL TODAY! read more

I had this work done several years ago. I remember Andre and how very helpful he was. He is professional and knows a lot about systems. I was very happy with his service and will call him again for things of this nature. read more

I can't say enough good things about Andre. Honest, fair, kind and competent!! That's just for starters. I manage an apartment building and he has really come to our rescue by doing the work with the system we already had and doing it at a more than fair price! I am so thankful there are still people like Andre who are as good as their word and know what they are doing. That is the winning combination in this world. Thank you, Andre. read more
