The video that my video doorbell shows.  After three minutes of this, it goes into troubleshooting steps.
Brandon T.

My new home came with a smart home system that was proprietary to KMT, so I had no choice in vendor to use. I signed paperwork at my home closing authorizing KMT to contact me. They never did. After a month of waiting, I called them. They blamed my builder. I was told someone would call me back. No one did. I called again. They blamed me. Yes, that's right, it's my fault they didn't call me. I left a message and was told I'd get a call, so how is that my fault? So she instead called it a "miscommunication" that she waited more than a week to call me back. There's no ownership here, no focus on customer service -- and I haven't even written these people a check yet. I can't imagine how it would be if I were under a contract with them. It took me finally getting to a manager to get someone moving. He confirmed that yes, my message did get through to the person it was intended for, and they just didn't call me back for more than a week. He scheduled someone to come out after five weeks of me waiting. The technician that arrived was nice enough, and he installed my system quickly. I had no questions, and he told me it was an easy install, that usually customers take a lot more time and ask a lot of questions. He told me that my next door neighbor was a little slow to understand the system, giving me the impression that he thought they were dumb. "They're ... uh, older," he said. What did that accomplish? After he left, the video doorbell didn't work. I spent a good deal of time on my own going through the doorbell's troubleshooting steps. It still didn't work. I emailed KMT. No response. No surprise there. I called KMT, and was put through to an in-office technician. He was nice enough, but the troubleshooting steps didn't fix the doorbell. It still does not work. He blamed my WiFi. Again, it's always someone else's fault. But wait, shouldn't the technician that was here have checked that out and had a solution if it was really my WiFi? My phone gets full signal strength at the door. The tech explained that well, my phone has a much better WiFi antenna than the doorbell they provide. So I take this to mean that his product is low quality, then. I asked "What happens if someone breaks in and my WiFi signal is low or the camera's antenna is just too small to get a good signal? How will I get video to share with police?" Oh, that's easy. The doorbell camera is for view-only. There is no video saved of any incident at all, which is worse than a $99 Ring camera. I had an apartment that was broken into in downtown Atlanta. I want a security system. I need this company's service, and have told them so. And yet everything is someone else's fault, or there's just lack of concern for the customer at every turn. The place is poorly managed. There's just nothing of value here. KMT wants to sell monthly subscription packages for a steady revenue stream. If you don't sign up for one of their security packages, even when you have a basic system that's paid for in full, it will not work with your phone after 3 years. So there's no way to record video, and after 3 years, with no way to even see video on your phone as it happens live, what is the video doorbell doing out there? There are too many other options out there to deal with bad service from a company that's trying to force you into a subscription model. I'm pulling out the whole "free" system and replacing it with off-the-shelf components. It's much cheaper and clearly much more reliable to go that way. EDIT: There's been a "response" to my review, but no direct contact to me. I think that shows the focus here is on reputation, not on actual service to the customer. I bought a Samsung SmartThings hub from Best Buy, and an Arlo video doorbell. For less than $200, I have everything working with my iPhone, including my thermostat, my porch light, and my door locks that came with the original system. No monthly fees. No extortion at the end of three years that requires me to pay up or lose the whole thing's functionality. In the end, KMT still blamed my builder. They still blamed me. They still insulted my neighbors. They still failed to install the system so that it worked. Now they add blame because the crappy components they sold were chosen by the builder. None of these issues are addressed in the "response." This is clearly a poorly run company with low customer focus. Seek someone else.

A security sticker from KMT Systems is attached to a window screen, which is part of a building with beige siding. The window has horizontal blinds visible through the screen, and the sticker displays the company's logo and contact information. The exterior wall features horizontal beige siding, and the window frame is metallic.

I had very limited space but they were able to mount them and not make the space look too crowded. I was impressed by their method of hiding the wires and also installing an extra outlet in the ceiling. Great work and highly recommend!

They needed to send out at least 2 guys minimum three would be even better. I was given a quote beforehand that included $199 install fee $49 for bracket which equaled $248.00 I think it was the owner he told me that included hiding all of the wires. That price was a lie because when the guy came out he told my husband it would be an additional $99 to hide the wires what s scam. We told the guy no thank you and he left. I told my husband we could find another company an actual honest one. We found one not long after and they are very professional and installing the tv right now as I'm typing lol and no they didn't charge extra to hide the cables. Stay away from this company. There are honest companies out there. And no it wasn't a company I found off craigslist but a company that has almost 5 stars with many good reviews. Only charged $249 for everything including bracket and hid cables in wall.

After buying our first home, my wife and I decided to purchase an alarm system with monitoring…read moreservice to help protect our investment and our children. We had never used a security system before and knew little about how the systems or the service worked. Lew dropped by for a free consultation, surveyed the property, recommended a course of action, and scheduled an installation for the following week. Lew dealt patiently with us for we misplaced the key to the house on the installation day, and he happily fit us into his schedule the next day. Installation was quick, clean and informative: he explained components and features, offered different options, and uninstalled and disposed of random components of earlier systems spread throughout the house. And most importantly, at nine o'clock one night, when I called him after clumsily and accidentally fouling up the master code and a clutch of other settings too due to my inexperience with the system, he picked right up and walked me through the process of sorting out the whole mess, and taught me how to avoid making that mistake again. His generous customer service took a huge weight off my shoulders, and we couldn't have been more pleased. One other thing: Like T-Mobile, Atlanta Home Alarm offers their services without contracts. Everything is month to month--and their rates seem much cheaper than bigger companies'.

How do you find a reliable, affordable home alarm provider when you are new to Atlanta and know…read morehardly anyone? I got lucky with my online search and called Atlanta Home Alarm Systems to check out the system installed in the home we just bought. The existing system was stickered by one of the 3-letter acronym outfits and I knew from trying to deal with them when my I moved my parents to an assisted living center I wanted nothing to do with them. Atlanta Home Alarm Systems came over within 24 hours, converted the system to their monitoring service and I couldn't be more pleased with their service, reliability and value. AND they offer pay as you go, monthly payments, no contract! I still can't believe it. Since then their very capable techs have replaced sensors when they went kafitz!, moved all the sensors when we had our windows replaced, relocated the cellular service connection to the attic when the under stairs wiring closet couldn't keep a connection... All good. I couldn't be more pleased.

ADT Security Services - 6 months ADT refused to fix this problem. After 4  calls they sent a tech. We should have dumped them long ago.

The first time your respective arrived he only came to sell ADT products which we declined before hand. His sole purpose was to install our door bell camera which he didn't even have. However he kept pitching the security system and we decided to try it out with our ring camera supposedly getting installed another day. We decided we didn't actually want the security so we scheduled the time for pick up WITH the time for the door bell install. The same thing happened again and there so no doorbell camera with the technician. I called Safe Haven about this with no resolution as the outcome. The customer service provider basically said she would need to speak with the technician. We ended up scheduling a weekend date for a tech to come out and install the door bell. We confirmed the appointment on Thursday with the install being today May 2nd. Well this morning we received notification that our appointment had been canceled with no explanation besides "idk" and that we would be contacted to reschedule at a later date. This is unacceptable to me. To be a security company, making sure your residents have what they need should be a main priority especially after the continuously hiccups that have happened. I would not recommend their service to anyone.

I was an Ackerman customer for about 8 years until my account was sold to ADT without my knowledge…read more I have been using ADT for about 2 years. In early December 2025, I noticed Ackerman Security was back in business; I said okay, let me call them to re-established home security services with them. A home appointment was scheduled, and the woman sales rep for Ackerman came to my home. We talked and reviewed the work that were needed to convert my home security services from ADT to Ackerman. We discussed the amount and monthly payments for Ackerman Security services. To establish services, I was going to finance the equipment charges to a finance partner company for Ackerman. I gave the Ackerman rep my personal information (e.g. Social Security number, address, phone numbers, and other information to establish security services.) The Ackerman rep never follow up with me. When I called her, she gave me an excuse saying it is a technical issue, management is reviewing your information, or some off the wall excuse. I got tired of waiting, and I utilized ADT security. I paid more money with ADT; however, I have a peace of mind. If Ackerman Security didn't want my business, I wish the rep would have said something; and she didn't. Very sad business practice; and I am glad that I am not returning to Ackerman as a customer.
