I'm needing to upgrade to a new MacBook so reached out to Julian for pre-purchase advice. I…read morepreviously tried some local people but the experience wasn't satisfactory, so I expanded my search and found Julian. Julian listened attentively to my needs, gave it some careful thought, then provided me with super honest, no-frills, practical advice regarding which machine and components would be most suitable. I'm now confident I will be getting exactly what I need, and am sure Julian saved me many hundreds of dollars and countless headaches had I tried this on my own. Highly recommended! Update: After I got my new computer, I realized I really needed to sort through my huge archive of old USB cables and God knows what other kinds of cables I'd accumulated over the years. Julian was incredibly helpful in getting everything sorted out. This guy is basically the modern version of the old TV cable guy--except he's the USB cable guy! I've never met anyone with such an in-depth understanding of cable compatibility and the challenges of getting the maximum possible speed out of different cable types with modern Thunderbolt architecture. Thanks again, Julian. Really appreciate it!

We had a couple of conversations to clarify what was going on. I wasn't ready to execute the best but more costly option to fix the issue, so he recommended an extender. I couldn't get it to work, so he ended up coming to check it out and get it working. Julian is friendly and easy to work with, and I will hire him for future electrical work.

Xfinity kept telling me the "new" box was going to easily pump wifi through my whole house. It never worked and we had multiple dead spots in our house, where wifi never reached. We ended up trying several things, included a second network setup using Google Nest routers. That also didn't work great and we suffered for years. So finally got fed up, and I called BATH and told Ari what the issue was. He gave me a budget, which I bristled at, at first. Then he walked me through a likely fix, which involved a couple routers networked so that I had independent wifi running on both floors of the house but on the same network. The tech came by and was super nice, and walked me through what they were going to do. I was cautiously optimistic. When they were done? I almost cried at how well everything ran through my house. They even set me up so I had ethernet directly to my gaming PC, and direct into my TV and Xbox. I have not had a single issue since (beside Comcast caused outages), and have blazing fast wifi throughout the house (I pay for the gigaspeed Xfinity). I'm finally utilizing the speed as sold to me by Xfinity. Thanks so much BATH. I really appreciate it. I was super impressed with the emails, the invoices, techs being on time, and just the overall professionalism. It was worth the extra few bucks.

Thank you Ari & Frank(tech) for fixing my network.

We needed it fixed because a code is sent to his phone and we needed it to complete some legal tasks that day. Unfortunately, my dad was at the hospital and couldn't be at the store to get the phone fixed. So, I had to do it. The agent at the store, Kayla, was very helpful. She went out of her way to confirm my dad's identity through video chat and verifying his driver's license, which I brought to the store. She fixed the SIM card issue with an eSIM. Because of that, we were able to complete the legal paper work. Kayla was helpful, kind and went out of her way to protect my dad's account. She made a stressful day less stressful.

So with at Mobile now being one of the best carriers, offering data and texts around the world in 215 countries and Netflix all in the same plan, for the same price as AT&T, it was a no brainer. I met Johnny, my sales guy at this location. He walked me through the process of switching carriers from AT&T, closing that account and activating my new one. It took about 30 minutes total. Super simple. And so far, so good. Can't wait to go to all the other countries and no longer have to worry about picking up a SIM card when landing at the airports.

It's a busy location and they don't take reservations and T-Mobile's back end is sloooow so I had plenty of time to watch them with other folks. Always polite and helpful, even with customers who came in a bit snitty because Tmo did them wrong. So five stars for the location and staff. Two stars for T-Mobile's back end.

Zencom was recommended by my security camera company to come in and replace the fiber so I could get my cameras back up and running. Adam came out from Zencom and quickly assessed the situation, spoke the language of my security company and developed a plan to replace the fire damaged cabling. Within a very short time, he obtained the necessary supplies and had the replacement installed in less than a day. More impressively, he came back and spent hours making sure all the cameras were back up, correcting minor issues he came across with my initial installation and left me in a much better situation than I was in even before the fire. I honestly hope to not need Zencom again, but if you need them, I highly recommend Adam and the Zencom team.

Suntech stands out above the rest with their unparalleled technical expertise and exceptional value for the quality delivered. When choosing a company for something as important as your family's safety, it's crucial to pick one that really understands the technology inside and out and how to optimally utilize it to secure your home. During my consultations with various security companies, I kept going back to Suntech because I just felt like Mike was the sharpest out of them all. He fully understood my situation and grasped the entire NVR ecosystem more fluently than all the others, and he has an excellent memory too! On top of that, I feel that Mike truly cares about his clients- he's not in the business only to make money, but rather to make a truly positive impact in his clients' lives. The actual installation went smoothly and it feels so much better knowing that my whole house is now covered both inside and out at every angle with 24/7 continuous surveillance. Having that peace of mind is priceless and I'm so thankful to Mike and the Suntech team for it!
