Jack was very knowledgable and listened to my concerns and the type of system I wanted. You can tell he's been in the business a long time. He was able to work with me to set up a great system within my budget. It feels good to know I can take a short drive and talk face-to-face to the friendly people at the Securimax office if any issues pop up. Donna was particularly helpful in getting my notifications set up just right. Highly recommend!

The panels never worked right and had a tech on several occasions and was told it was my internet that was causing the problems. Finally, after 3 years on constant issues I called to cancel the service and was informed I needed to send an email and they would cancel. No one tried to keep us as customers and resolve the issues. Additionally, 2 wks after cancelling their service the monitoring station called us 15 times saying they were receiving trouble signals. When I talked to the monitoring station, they said they had not received any information about the cancellation. If you are looking for an alarm company think twice about using Securimax.

In total, I had 4 different of my staff members complain about him and then I had to deal with him and it was nothing but unpleasant. He took forever to get me the paperwork needed to set him up as a vendor so I could pay him for repair work and while he still wasn't getting me the paperwork he would literally call every single day to ask for payment. He finally got me the paperwork after 2 weeks of me trying and then I paid him. Then he was to install license plate cameras and due to him installing the cameras at another property I had to wait a month for install. The day he installed them he didn't tell me and then was immediately calling that next day for payment! I told him I didn't even know the work was done AND he hadn't even sent me an invoice! So he did that day and before I could even get it to my accountant he was calling again for payment. He called everyday for it! Normally companies pay on a 30 day turn over time but he is DESPERATE for money (and it was only $1000 so to me that says he is really struggling for business if he so badly needs that money). I checked video footage of the cameras and these awesome cameras didn't show anything, it was pitch black and didn't pick up an license plate image. So I only paid half b/c they didn't work. He got pushy and aggressive saying the cameras were in so he needed payment, but I said I couldn't pay until the cameras actually worked. Thus began more unpleasant conversations and arguments about getting the work done. End of the day, cameras aren't showing footage the way they need to and he won't come adjust them like he said he would. I DO NOT RECOMMEND using this company for the simple fact that it is terrible customer service and terrible attitude....and they seem quite desperate for money so I'm thinking they won't be around for very long.

DT Security's Danny and his installer Angel are excellent. We'd been with ADT/Brinks for 37 years…read more Our current system had been hard wired into the home we built in 2002. Its notices went out on a landline via Spectrum. Spectrum was out so much lately, (actually constantly), our system kept notifying that it'd lost communication waking us every morning between 3 and 5 am. We did not know dropped communication was the error. ADT did not know what the error code was. We attempted to resolve the issue over a 2-3 week period with ADT, including a 45 troubleshooting time after pushing ADT's AI to get a human tech. The tech could not even find what our error code meant. He could not resolve the issue, but wanted to install a new system with all new equipment. A second ADT tech the next day had me show a pic of our control panel and she immediately looked up the error code and it was dropped communication. She too wanted to take everything out of our system and start over. The estimates for two ADT sources were off by several hundred dollars. I was told the less expensive one was not correct even though it had a price guarantee until August 28. I was fed up. I went to AI. It said pull the AC plug on the system, it tends to hang on to error cords. Thank you! That stopped the beeps. We went through one more episode with corporate ADT and ended more frustrated. I looked for top home security system installers in the Bastrop area and DT Security (Round Rock) was on top in Yelp. I called and instantly reached Danny. He took us through their whole process, including taking advantage of the well installed original sensors. We reviewed Danny's contract. Our system would still use ADT (DT Security is a licensed ADT installer). The very next afternoon DT Security's installer Angel, upgraded our system to cellular, attached all the trip circuits we had, added new equipment when necessary and was done in 3.35 hours with everything working perfectly. Angel first met with my wife Chris and I, explaining everything in detail he was going to do. He was very considerate of our time and kept us informed through out the install. This morning I had a question and sent Danny an email. He called me within an hour and walked me through something I'd missed. So no 30 minute holds on the phone, no AI to negotiate with, no being passed from tech to tech, just good solid "local" services. After dealing with ADT for weeks, this was certainly a breath of fresh air and excellent service. This was a strong reminder to deal locally.

I've been with Central Security for almost a year now and my experience has been great. I waited a…read morewhile to write this review, because I wanted to makes sure the customer service was just as great if I ever had an issue. I found Central Security on Yelp. Patrick answered when I called for service. It was down to Central Security and another home security company. Patrick explained everything to me and answered all of my questions. I was very appreciative of this because this was my first time owning a home security alarm system. I really love that since this would be my first time, there's no contact. I love that they believe in earning your business instead of being nice upfront and then not having to work to keep your business, because you're trapped in a contract. I signed up with Central Security and paid for my equipment upfront and my cameras. I just pay monthly for the active monitoring. One time after I was approached by another company a few momths after I been with Central Security, I called Patrick and let him know and he let me know he value my business and gave me a fair renegotiation on my monthly fee. The next month I bought another camera and has then install it. I'm also happy to report that the alarm does work I had a false alarm when I was away in away on a windy night and the wind push a an unlocked door open. The police ended showing up and the security center did call. Unfortunately I was sleeping at the time, but it was reassuring to know that the system really does work! I highly recommend Central Security. I've had excellent service, when they came to install the system they were punctual professional and fairly quick. This is the best deal in town with the fairest prices!

Two years ago he helped resurrect the…read moreancient and barely-used security system at my apartment, making several trips for me until I was sure everything worked properly. Since that time, he has always been incredibly prompt at answering and/or returning my phone calls. This is especially reassuring because when you accidentally set the alarm off, you want help NOW, not a day later. He has taken more panicked calls from me than I am comfortable admitting, and each time he is quick to assess my situation and help me fix the problem--sometimes so quickly it seems like a miracle. He is up to date with technology and can communicate with you via text message (he will ask you first in case you prefer phone calls instead) and prompt email. I love the new remote access key fob he installed for me that allows me to set and disarm my system without needing a code. It gives me additional safety even out in the parking lot because I can punch two buttons and have the police arrive within a few minutes. Thomas definitely seems to know his tech stuff and seems happy to explain it whenever I needed help understanding. I have been so impressed with him that when my workplace needed technical security help of an entirely different sort, I encouraged my boss to go to Thomas. For the sake of fairness, I did research on other options and found all of the others to be far overpriced. Many of them wanted us to install full systems and commit to long-term programs. I didn't like the big corporate feel of those places and I am very glad my boss agreed to go with Thomas. He gave us advice on purchasing our security items, scheduled the install, arrived promptly, put everything together quickly with little mess, and even spent time on phone support with the product manufacturer to make sure it was working properly. I know that if we have problems in the future he will do his best to make it right. In short, Thomas provides the best local security services at very fair prices and I rest easier knowing that both my home and workspace are as safe as they can be.

Really great experience (from start to finish) working with this family-owned company! When I say…read morefamily-owned, I mean that Mary, her husband, and their son will come to your house to install your new system. That level of family-owned. First and foremost, Mary has fantastic communication. When I initially sent my quote request, she responded quickly and thoroughly. Throughout the process, I had multiple questions (new to this), and she took the time to carefully reply to each question via email. This level of responsiveness is super important to me especially when it's a field I'm not knowledgeable in. There are a lot of moving parts when alarming a house and it was important that I understood exactly what we were getting. Her team did a great job installing our new security system. Everyone was very nice and professional. They took the time to explain everything and asked our input (regarding placement, etc.) whenever necessary. Mary carefully went through everything in the app to get me set up and familiar with the interface. They were also very respectful of our home -- offering to either remove shoes or put on their own shoe covers (we're a shoe-free household with small children so this is important to us). I also really appreciated how customizable everything was. There are so many different options that are offered with the security system (including a lot of automation like locking doors and controlling lights, etc. that we weren't actually interested in). If you're a newbie like me, I'll break down the basic security options. It helps to have some understanding of what's available before you get started. I was a little overwhelmed but Mary was helpful in answering my questions. Anyway, you've got a keypad that controls your alarm system (arm/disarm). You can do that via app (even if not home) or key fob. Then you've got your various sensors. Obviously, the door open sensors are a must. They'll trigger the alarm if someone opens the door (when armed) and is unable to enter the proper disarm code. Then you've got the option of installing window open sensors. There are also glass break sensors (generally, one per small room or two for large rooms) that will notify you if a glass break is detected (or if house is armed, set off the alarm). Finally, you've got motion sensors (these are automatically turned off when you arm your system in stay mode versus away). Assuming you'll wire the doors, you need to decide if you want glass breaks and if so, whether they will cover full home or just most vulnerable areas; if you want window sensors and if so, on all or some windows (might depend on your window type and vulnerability to window being manually opened and whether glass breaks might be sufficient); and whether you want motion sensors and which areas you want them to cover. I'd recommend doing some preliminary research/planning on how these tools might fit your home and what coverage is necessary versus overkill. It depends on your layout, etc. Next, you've got cameras. They offer WiFi-based cameras (operated through alarm.com) and standard wired cameras. Video doorbells too. We replaced our Ring with their doorbell cam to centralize our camera controls. You can have everything controlled through the alarm.com app for convenience. The app is great -- very user-friendly. Anyway, there are a lot of other options available as well that I didn't even delve into. Thought I'd share the basics to get you started. Don't hesitate to use this company! They offer free in-person consultations and fantastic service -- professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive. Oh and their rates seem reasonable and competitive. Very pleased with this experience as well as our new alarm system! BIG THANK YOU!

They walked us through how to operate and use the system and made sure we were comfortable with everything before they finished.
