In an odd sort of way, it turned out my first choice wasn't my best choice!…read more I came across the listing and thought "OK - it's a little corny name, 'Those Tech Guys'" but honestly, if you hang around tech guys at all, you get it. I am far from a professional when it comes to IT installations, but I know enough to be dangerous. And after getting quotes to install ethernet in my 1980s circa home, one never wired for ethernet, one that just went through a significant renovation where I, in my supreme wisdom said "WiFi is great, now! Who need hardwires anymore?" was now faced with retrofitting several rooms and office with ethernet and said, this guy over here, the independent with a normal sounding company name, yeah - lets go with him! Mistake!! After schedule, and reschedule, and delays, and reschedule, we got nowhere with contractor number one. Meanwhile, Roberto and Peter at Those Tech Guys had patiently followed up several times, continued to be pleasant and professional, and AFTER I said no thank you I am going to go with someone else! So I made the dreaded call back - "So remember when I said if things change . . . " Peter was quick to jump on the phone, and walk me through things at every step. Gave me a highly competitive bid, and an install time of only a few days from when I called. They cam onsite, were clean courteous, and efficient. They played with my dog (I mean who doesn't love a bowling ball Staffy Bull Terrier mix?) and made light work of the install, and the final cost (with tip!) was even below the initial quote. This was made possible as Peter walked my home and together we found opportunities to do things more quickly, and save a few dollars along the way. In the end, I didn't choose Those Tech Guys first, but you should. No regrets here, other than I should have picked them first!

The install team, Evan and Cameron, are nice people. However, the job was subpar. Work started at 9…read morea.m. In the beginning, the team gave the impression that they were going to drop wires from the attic through soffit vents down to cameras for most of the run beside the doorbell. One of the team members had to drive back for a ladder during the job. And both finished at 5pm 16 billable hours for a 5 runs vs 6 runs and paid full price. The worst part is I was under the impression that they (during booking and pre-install) would try their best to conceal wires, but the majority of wires ended up exposed and longer than necessary. Camera down to crawl space then back up exterior wall (next to downspout) through soffit vent into attic. Vs. camera up exterior wall into attic via soffit vent. I tried contacting the team to offer to pay more to have wires rerouted to no avail. The cameras work. I'm grateful for that.

We have used Nexus in the past and reached out to them again for a current project. The team that…read morecame out today for our estimate was great. They both talked me through cost efficient long term solutions as well as temporary solutions while waiting for the estimate/scheduling. They really took their time and were very thorough with explanations, even planning to break down the estimate into 3 areas we discussed. Again- this was just estimate/consultation and work has not been done yet. However, the one thing I specifically wanted to mention was that during the estimate I had barking dogs, and 2 young kids that were demanding attention from them and me (just pure chaos) and the young woman, who I believe was the apprentice (and I'm sorry I forgot her name), took a moment out of the chaos to let me know I was doing a great job. It's been a morning of craziness and that 30 second personal intersection meant the world to me, especially today. It's those kinds of interaction that creates repeat customers. Thank you.

I requested quotes from two different places, the other place never got back to me with an estimate…read moreand were off-putting. This company was professional, and very responsive to any questions I had. They set me up with an amazing system with high quality cameras and a great app that alarms when anyone is within frame for the allotted time. When they set up my cameras they spent time making sure I knew how to use the system, and set up all the features I wanted. I was very impressed. I haven't had any issues, but they encouraged me to feel free to call with any issues or questions.

The air in our area has suffered from local area fire smoke and our house's fire alarms started to…read morerandomly alarm. Not knowing what was happening, I called the Folks at Signal Services to ask if they could help. I spoke with their main operational head who explained that my fire alarms were old (beyond their 10 year life) and needed replacement. Rather than pitch their services, he explained that this was something I could probably handle myself, where to go and the appropriate next steps. Within a few days I had replaced all of our smoke detectors with the latest edition - problem solved. SO WHY am I writing this review. Because the guys at Signal Services didn't have to walk me through what was happening and how to fix it. They didn't get paid, had plenty of other things to be doing that day, but took the time to help me out for free. With that, they earned a 5 star review and my pledge to use them again in the future if I ever need services that they offer. It's all too rare these days that someone helps when there's no sale to be made and this is a true testament to their customer-centric approach. Great guys - thank you!

Russ, Travis and Tom were awesome. Their no BS approach to alarm security really won me over to…read morecall them and they were the first/only company I felt comfortable moving forward with. I called Rev Associates to schedule a consultation for my home. Russ arrived promptly at my home for the scheduled consultation. He's a very personable guy with nearly 50 years in the business. I trust his expertise and he didn't try to add any fluff to items he felt the house needed. I received an email from him that same afternoon and decided to proceed with the install. Tom arrived to perform the install and was on time as well. However I was delayed 5 minutes due to me leaving my office a little later than expected. Tom walked over the house with me to confirm what he was installing. He was very careful in his work and had plastic laid out to catch any debris that may fall while drilling and tapping. He also walked around with shoe coverings and vacuum to pick up whatever else he may have missed the first time. It was refreshing to see such care and consideration for my home. The install itself took a tad over 2.5 hours. Everything was tested and works perfectly. Last, but not least. Travis installed our camera system and motion lights. Great guy who set up all of our systems and even helped trouble shoot their in-house app that was finicky at first with my Google Pixel XL. They were quick with a workaround which I suspect they'll probably be encountering more customers with Pixels as the phone gains popularity. So it's definitely a good thing this was caught early on. I cannot give a more glowing recommendation about a company. Everyone we dealt with was an absolute pleasure. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a sensible solution to home security.

Russ is fantastic. He is knowledgable and was able to help…read moreme get the system that came with the house I purchased up and running.

The product itself seems 'best-in-class' or close to it. The…read morecustomer support team and experience is an unmitigated disaster. They appear to outsource their support team to The Philippines or someplace like that. They are as courteous as they are clueless. Even a drill and a 9-pound hammer will not get through to them. There's nothing one can say to get anything but the simplest messages or issues through to them and understood. There currently seems to be a security problem with the company. I'm guessing they have been hacked, and their customer data has been distributed/sold to scammers (presumably on the Dark Web, if that still exists). I get scores of phone calls and now emails about late payments to my Vivint Account. I have an automatic payment so there should be no issues. The emails I receive have two glaring problems. 1) the abbreviated account number is incorrect. This makes it pretty clear this is a scam email. 2) the two links on the email are to the following dns domain: spmailtechno.com. This domain is owned by a company called MessageBird USA Inc which is in Maryland, USA. Here is a link with background information on this company: https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/1396628D:US. I called Vivint 5-6 times today to inform them about this security problem. No one at the company has the professional wherewithal to take ownership of this issue and/or escalate the issue to someone who has authority over such things. This is potentially an existential threat to their business, and all I get from the "support team" is the equivalent of "Do you want fries with that?". To say I'm frustrated is the understatement of the century. I will keep the service for now as there is no one else who offers a superior service. ADT is a disaster, and no one else seems worth my time. Suffice it so say the market is ripe for a competitor.

The service technician they dispatched to install a brand new system argued with me every step of…read morethe way, but didn't offer alternate solutions for things he deemed couldn't be done. He placed several sensors in locations where he thought best as opposed to where I need them because "it can't be done", without consulting with me. To boot, it has now taken me about half an hour to speak to a live rep, with lots of hold time in between. And the last one spoke English, but not very well. I am already regretting using them.
