Gave em two stars because the installer of my starlink was a pretty nice guy. But he also came I'll prepared with not enough cable to properly place the dish. Of course they won't come back out and fix it because I signed the paper. So beware, don't sign papers unless you know it was done right. In fact, I would advise against using them, period. read more

OnTech - Yeah...this is Ontech's handiwork. Am being told by them too bad. - Home Network Installation Near Me

Trash service and late technicians! The customer service center is an absolute joke. So I paid a premium fee for an early appointment, and they showed up 6 hours after the window read more

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! They charged me for two hours of service, when they were only here for 58 minutes. Bruce, the technician was totally a ConMan. You can get no help from customer service, you are not able to speak with a manager, and they will tell you what city or state they're located in. They said they investigated My complaint, and they found the technician to be in the right, and the case is closed. So they charged my credit card an additional $174.06. I have made a complaint with the Better Business Bureau, and hopefully they will be able to help me with this. Stay clear of this company. read more

I nstallation tech was great and did a great job explaining. The issue is he arrived and told me I ordered the wrong installation package and I needed to agree to the additional charge or he would leave and I would have to reschedule. It turns out I was overbilled by over $100 and Ontech would do nothing to help me even though they acknowleded the installation should have been a different price. Working with my credit card to dispute. I will never use Ontech again read more

OnTech servicing CA- We had a very disappointing experience with OnTech. We prepaid $300 to have a TV mount installed, and no one ever showed up on our scheduled installation day. Throughout the day, we called multiple times for updates. First, we were told the technicians were delayed but would still arrive later. Then we were informed that our specific mount would cost an additional $180 and require a second installer -- something that was never mentioned when we booked and prepaid. Despite this surprise upcharge, we were assured they were still coming. By 5:30pm, no one had arrived. When we called again to find out what was going on, we were told they would not be coming at all and would need to reschedule. The representative attempted to transfer us to someone else, but the call went to an automated message saying the company was closed. We then contacted customer service, but they were unable to help, claiming their scheduling system was down. There was very little empathy for the inconvenience, and we were simply told we would receive a refund in 7-10 business days. We rearranged our entire day to be home for this appointment, only to be met with poor communication, surprise charges, and no service. Extremely frustrating experience. Ended up reporting to the BBB! read more

Worst company I have ever dealt with! I was charged $423 for Simplisafe installation That never happened. We were told the arrival time of 10am-12pm On March 17. No one showed up! I made several calls and found out that OnTech subcontracts with dish for installation and there are only TWO certified dish technicians that can install security systems in the Twin City and out lying areas. I asked if the other dish tech could come and was told that he was 2 hours away. The tech who was supposed to do our installation tech was still at the first job in Hudson WI (I live in St Paul). Even though the install was never done the charge is still on my credit card. Therefore I called On Tech again and was told they would credit my account within 7 days. Horrible business! Find someone else to do the install!!! read more

Showed up within said time, decent installation. The reason they are receiving one star is because they did not remove the old security system in my house. You would think that when you spend over $300 on just installation, they would remove the old one as well. This is not the case. Reached out to them and they said I would need to hire another contractor to remove the old system...meaning pay MORE money for a simple job they should have been able to do themselves. Absolutely unacceptable. Terrible business practices. 1 Star. read more

On Tech company in Ct . I had my ring security system installed by ontech in Connecticut . I then had a mantle Mount installed on my fireplace for my Television. It was suggested to me to get a new Soundbar by the tech.He said he had one in the truck,which I bought from On tech a new (poke sound bar DBRXISB) the tech was nice enough to insync my TV remote to the sound bar.A month and a half later my TV remote gave me a problem.So I grabbed the Polk soundbar remote for the volume which it did not work.I have to get up and down and manually turn the volume up and down on the sound bar base.I called On Tech spoke to their customer service Brian and I asked him if he could have somebody come out and just check the remote to see if it was a insnyc problem or if it was the remote was the problem.Was told by Brian customer service of On Tech Ct that he can't help me. Don't ever deal with this company they do not stand by their work . Their customer service is horrible . Customer beware...Unbelievable. You think I just gave this company $3,000 worth of business dealt with late appointments and this is how you treat a customer.Never again read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. Stay away from this company. They will scam and take advantage of you. They charged my mom $160 for a diagnosis fee. When they came out they charged her $434 for services they did not complete. The guy told her he was going to come back and install it. He had my mom sign a bill of sale stating the work was complete but he didnt state he was charging her for work, he misled her. We have it all on camera. read more

I notice now that not only did the OnTech agent lie to me and steal, he failed to complete the job. He failed to put up two solar panels.

SimpliSafe said OnTech would do the install of our security system. Booking online gave me no option for an available date. So I called them. They said "nothing is available in the next 14 days. Try calling back next week." I asked if they could confirm that I'm in their service area, and they said, "Probably. We're national." So I pressed, "Can you tell me when the next available date will be? Or if I'm going to keep getting told the same thing every time I call back?" They couldn't answer that. Based on the other reviews here, I'm saving myself a future headache by moving on. read more

Updated Review / June 3, 2025 My SimpliSafe alarm system needed some adjustments and equipment changes since it was first installed in early December of last year by Waldo, who did a great installation. I highly recommend Waldo. May 15, 2025 Technician Manny came out and tweaked the system to work better. Two outdoor cameras were not recording motion. They needed to be replaced. Manny was on time and quite professional and knew my equipment very well. I highly recommend him. May 24, 2025 Technician Jośe came out to install the replacement cameras. Like the other two technicians Jośe showed up on schedule and was extremely knowledgeable in installing the new cameras. I know the Yelp ratings on OnTech are quite low but it seems the Los Angeles area technicians are different. They show up on time, they wore "booties" on their shoes when inside my house and were experts in doing the installations. I highly recommend this company. read more

Kind of a scam. I purchased a security system from Simplisafe (also a scam) and the sales rep arranged installation through OnTech. When they showed up to do a "14 item" installation, the tech told me it did not include installation of cameras and that would be an additional $179 per camera. Why would I have someone come out just to stick sensors to my windows, which I could easily do myself. Obviously if I am asking for help with installation, it is the outdoor cameras that I need help with. Really shady and misleading. Stay away from OnTech and Simplisafe. read more

Absolutely delighted with OnTech installation service from Jose (LA/Orange County area) - exactly the service we requested! Jose installed several outdoor security cameras with the Simplisafe ActiveGuard protection, along with an array of interior sensors and keypads. A bit of a learning curve for us -- but, again, Jose from OnTech was fantastic! Not only did he expertly install what we requested (with great suggestions on placement), but he carefully walked me through how to use the services, etc (very important!). Very happy with the price and value of the system - and now very happy with the peace of mind the Simplisafe system brings once it is professionally installed. read more

Dec 2, 2025 Ontech installed Simplisafe security system for $314 fee. After technican left, the doorbell was not recording and 5 sensors showed very low wifi connection. Tried to resolve by adding wifi extension which did not resolve. Simplisafe advised we'd have to pay an Ontech technician again to return. We opted to cancel Simplisafe and returned all equipment which we have been refunded. After 4 requests with Ontech for refund of $314 installation fee, since installation was NOT successful, we are still waiting for a call from a supervisor...been waiting since Dec. 15, 2025. Today i Jan. 8, 2026. read more

The technicians themselves were great, but they had to come out twice. During the first visit, they weren't able to complete the power relocation and told us to hire an electrician instead. I had already purchased the power relocation kit, the cord concealment, and the Thin TV Gap Spacer. I'm not even sure the gap spacer was installed because I don't see it on the back of the TV. They also still haven't refunded me for the power relocation service that wasn't completed, even though they've known for two weeks that it wouldn't be done. read more

Terrible company! they didnt show up and didn't return money! dont deal with them! read more

VERY MISLEADING. Paid $159 for installation of "up to 10 devices". We had 3 cameras to install, but apparently cameras are not included. I'm guess this was in the fine print somewhere. We could have paid $70 each extra on site, but ~$400 is an absurd cost for basic install. Thanks, but we'll do it ourselves. Don't waste your time with this company. read more

Technician never came. No one called. I received an email just a few hours before they were supposed to come confirming that they were coming, and then they never showed up. Their call center employees people with very difficult to understand Asian accents. They said they'd call me back but never did. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!! read more

Just spoke with Brian in customer service about discrepancy in installation pricing. After purchasing Simplisafe's equipment package, I received an email itemizing installation costs with a button to link me to schedule. Pricing increased by $64.99 between the sites. Brian made sure to condescendingly point out they are not SimpliSafe although Simplisafe's logo is branded all over their page. I requested to speak to a supervisor and Brian told me he was not in. I asked for a call back and Brian said it will be 72 hours. So I said "I should her from someone by Tuesday?" and Brian's response - "MAYBE"! Here's hoping the installation is better than the customer service. read more

Truly awful experience. These guys damaged my ceiling while installing security cameras and I have been going round and round in circles to get my ceiling sorted and have my damages cleared. Honestly the most pathetic claims resolution process I have ever been a part of. read more

There's a reason for the low ratings. After waiting for an extended amount time on the tech to arrive, the tech finally called me and said they couldn't make it. They were finishing up one customer and had another one ahead of me. I was also told the would call me and reschedule in a "few" minutes. Half an hour later, I called them. I was told it would be the next day before I could reschedule and 3 days later before they had a time slot for me. I asked to speak to a supervisor and the agent refused. I will be canceling tomorrow. Buyer beware. I work in customer service, I would at the very least offered an apology and most likely a discount. Also the price on the Simpli Safe site was not an option and there were lots of extras. read more

my simply safe system just stopped working. I'm in my 80s and they want me to climb up ladders which I am unable to do. they referred me to on tech here in Palm Springs area. the want to charge me $159 per camera to diagnose and get it up and running. unbelievable. I paid around $1000 to purchase and have installed by on tech. might as well purchase whole new system. found out what caused this problem in the !st place. I called to cancel a 9.99. per month fee for recording. only. no alarm system was ever ordered. when calling to cancel the $9.99 the cancelled the whole account. also was charged over $30.00 now for an alarm service and nothing is even working. they are reversing this charge and a supervisor is supposed to call me to discuss this whole fiasco. I have 4 cameras so 159 per camera. over $600 to solve this problem. unbelievable. read more

This is the second time I have made an appointment with on tech that they have completely missed the scheduled window. I rearranged my whole schedule to accommodate this and they don't seem to whatsoever about the way they completely screwed me over. Would not recommend!! read more

not good at all... I needed a simple doorbell installation. Poor workmanship, poor instructions, poor communication. Then I called the customer service line to discuss, and my issue was not resolved. The rep asked what else I needed, and I said I need resolution, he said this cannot be resolved, and hung up on me. read more

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! OnTech came to my residence to install a basic wireless ring doorbell camera. 2 people came one, one named LEONARD, the other an intern who did not present his name. After some time messing with the doorbell, they told me they fried the wiring, and to "hire an electrician to fix it." I went back inside to grab something and when I came back they were GONE. I have made multiple attempts to reach out and have recieved nothing. Please save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere. Completely unprofessional, useless, and uneducated individuals when it comes to installation. read more

beware! Ring referred me for install to Ontech. The agreed price was not honored. Ontech billed my credit card weeks BEFORE the service appt. The tech was late - he showed up at 4:03 pm and had to leave at 5 pm. He said he couldn't install what I had Except the ring doorbell and chime. He spent 20 minutes talking to his on tech Supervisor. He said $550,00 was not enough and it would require additional appts. What a huge SCAM On Tech is -- and to think RING is offering them on their website as installers - RING is accomplice. beware of this RING/On Tech scam. Ron read more

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! We have a new construction, so I hired OnTech to come out and install our ring system. The technician knew less than I did about the system and how to properly install it. When I realized he messed up the system, I corrected it myself. I requested to speak to a supervisor. Was told someone would call me back in 3 business days. No one called. I called again and was told it would be three more business days. Three weeks later a supervisor called and said the only correction they could do was send out a different technician. Save the money and headaches and install whatever it is yourself. read more

I bought a Nest thermostat directly from Google, and included installation. I booked the installation slot of 2:00-4:00 p.m. I took off work so I would be home during that time. At 1:30, I got a voicemail from OnTech saying that the technician wouldn't arrive until 8pm and telling me to call them if I wouldn't be home at that time. I ended up installing the thermostat myself and called OnTech to cancel the installation. The person who answered the phone told me they couldn't cancel--they could only reschedule the appointment. I emphasized that I would not be home at 8pm (4-6 hours AFTER the appointment that I had booked), but she insisted she could not cancel the appointment. Such terrible customer service--first by not honoring the time that I had booked, and then by not canceling the appointment. AVOID THIS COMPANY! read more

I had a guy come out to put up a video doorbell and he could not even install it that's terrible on tech used to be more professional than that looks like their losing their touch. read more

One Tech was recommended to me and it turned out to be not so good an experience. They give you 60 days to make sure everything works fine. They do not give you the boxes with the information on it that you will need if you ever need to reprogram your cameras. I was told by your friend that they do this on purpose so they can charge you for resetting your cameras $150 for one hour and an additional hour would be an additional $90. I told him it was a rip off they stole my boxes to make money and she repeated the same rules over again like a recorder. I bet she has done it quite often. This company are thieves. read more

Zero star, stay away. This company technicians do not have the accurate knowledge how the Simplisafe Outdoor Camera System works. Totally waste time and money ($600). They did not correct the errors they made unless we agreed to pay them again. Must not do any business with this company. read more

I recently remodeled my home and had a hardwired Ring doorbell installed by the electrician. My husband and I decided we wanted to add Ring security cameras and alarms. We booked a consultation priced at $49. The ad on the Ring site states that the technician will review the site, present products to you, and install them at the same time for additional fee, minus the $49. The technician, Brandon, arrived late, had no products, brochures, or suggestions. He said we must review everything on the Ring site and select what we as clients think would work best, order them on the website, and book an additional installation visit. This was not as advertised. We then asked for help connecting our new Ring doorbell to our phones. He said he would have to make an additional appointment for an additional charge for this service. He then tried to sell us a Dish TV/Internet package. Thank goodness he left. I believe OnTech is a scam. I do not recommend anyone waste their time with this outfit. I want my money back. I would give 0 stars if I could. This is the first negative review I have ever left. read more

If I could give Zero I would! Order a Nest doorbell to be installed for $159.00. The Tech came out spent 15 minutes onsite and noted that there wasn't enough voltage to the doorbell to install the video doorbell and more than likely the transformer was bad. I called to get a refund, and was told since the tech could not install the doorbell, that it is automatically considered a "diagnostic" call and that also was $159.00 - essentially a denied refund! DOT NOT ORDER INSTALL SERVICES read more

OnTech is significantly better at selling their services than following through with them. Once they sold their service and products to us they sent a different tech to install which meant we had to start over with the second tech. He couldn't finish the installation on Friday afternoon, which was fine with us, but we haven't heard anything from them for three days. I had to call them to schedule an appointment for March 27th for a job they left unfinished on February 28th. read more

they are the worst fake installation company ever, they didn't install what they were suppose to, they gave me 8 order number for the service installer to come out and he never showed and they kept misrepresenting all the facts and we are filing a law suit against not only them but simplisafe. unprofessional and misleading i would give them no stars, but it is the only way to post the complaint read more

This company was recommended to us by Ring to install their doorbell and a lock system for our front gate. They were terrible !!! - They recommended a lock that does not work properly. We found out later from Ring that this lock should not have been used with our wrought iron door. - They left in a hurry on a Friday afternoon after working in our cable panel and did not check to see if there were any problems. Our telephone land line and internet systems were not working. We had to get Cox Communications to get our telephone working again on Sunday. - OnTech returned on Monday to try to fix the remaining problems. They again left in a hurry and the Level Lock system still does not work properly. -Even though the locking system still does not work, OnTech has refused to come out again to fix the problem and honor their stated Satisfaction Guarantee. read more

I had this company install a Smart doorbell at the end of February. It was not installed properly so for about the past month , it was working intermittently due to not being properly aligned. I could not remember the name of the company, so finally figured it out after the warranty of 60 days expired. I called and was told it would cost me as much for a "diagnostic visit" as I paid for the initial installation. I decided to just put tape on the unit - or might start with a different company. read more
