2 gentlemen can to my door selling Ziply fiber. It was Free for the first month to try, and since…read moreour internet isn't the best, we did. The technicians installing the router were great. 2 weeks into the trial I contacted the guy that gave us the free trial to let him know the service wasn't reliable due to my building or equipment, either way, I needed someone to pick up the router. He didn't answer the text. So my next text was "who do I contact to come get this." He replied, said he'd pick it up over a week ago (see in pictures). It's coming up pretty close to the month mark so they'd be able to charge. I imagine dragging his feet has to do with commission if they make a sale. I called Ziply and I've spoken to nice people "who made an appointment to get the equipment" but told me they are transferring me for service cancellation. I have been on hold for 33 minutes. Just come get your stuff please. Update- stayed on hold for another 20 in addition to the 33minutes, until I decided to hang up and call back. I was now informed the sales person lied, it wasn't a free trial, and they also weren't authorized to retrieve equipment. "My Bill" for my "free trial" was 50$. The woman on the phone previously, lied about a tech coming to get the equipment, they are also not authorized to do so. That's on a recorded line. I was now informed to send the equipment back with a label, UPS, while they were still going to charge $50 for service. By the end of the conversation, in which I told her that they are scammers. she decided not to charge me the 50$ but 1.94$ in what I assume is for taxes. WOW. Beware neighbors. Time is $. I have 1 day off a week. So shout out to Ziply for wasting hours of my life, lying multiple times, and "gifting" me such a little charge on my "free trial" that I tried to end 2 weeks in. You guys are super cool.

I'd recommend Shawn to anyone: his knowledge, efficiency, customer engagement, and outcomes…read moredelivered are outstanding. He's a networking and IT superstar. Costs: If you are upgrading your home network or other capability, and need to buy new/more gear, Shawn doesn't charge a markup on the equipment. In fact, once he's designed your solution he will provide you with links to the exact products required and let you buy them directly from the vendors if desired. Or he'll buy them himself and present you with the receipts. Hourly rate: With the skills Shawn possesses, his hourly rate is substantial. And it should be. However, you can still bring your project in at a very reasonable cost PROVIDED you can be a smart customer. By this I mean you must be clear on the capabilities you want to achieve--or at least be able to listen to Shawn describe what's possible and then make rapid decisions. If instead you want a lot of customer education, Shawn can do that too because he knows an immense amount about IT and can communicate effectively. However, it's a bit like paying for a neurosurgeon to teach you about the types of aspirin available to treat a headache. That doesn't make sense; get a nurse instead! In my case, my wife and I work from the house. My goals were to increase the reliability of our home network. We wanted better maintainability (so when the internet goes down I can rapidly identify the problem and fix it). We wanted better network security. I wanted to add a home security camera because of problems with car prowls, etc. And finally, I wanted to move our networking gear out of our super-hot furnace room to a cooler and cleaner location. This was a lot. Other vendors had previously failed to come up with an affordable solution--or any solution at all. Shawn showed us how to do it for a very reasonable sum. Once we had a plan, I was able to control costs by getting a carpenter friend to open up the wall and pull wires through to the new location for the gear. Shawn also kept costs down by allowing me to provide extra hands as he mounted gear on the wall, connected all of our wireless access points to the new console, etc. These steps all require two people. Shawn was willing to let me help and he even maintained a high level of wit and good-natured ribbing throoughout the long day of work. In sum: great outcome, great satisfaction, great price.

He has a wide range of skills - fixed everything from TVs , printer , network issues, my email server, Alexa, and even my car's phone connection ! After he explained the problem (old house with several floors and walls ) we now understand the issues and how to solve them in the future. He is very efficient and worth every penny of his 2 hour visit. Will definitely call him when we decide to update our system Kate WB
