We found Abisai here on yelp while looking for a new low voltage company to install WIFI in our new…read morehome and property in the Santa Cruz mountains. We just moved here from Los Angeles after losing our home in the Altadena fires and didn't have any local resources. I had an amazing low voltage company in LA that I trusted for years, so I was hoping that we could find someone here that we could trust in the same capacity. After meeting with him and then working with him on the WIFI job, we are so happy and grateful for finding him! He is so professional, kind, communicative, knowledgable, and reliable. He is very thorough and detail oriented and his prices are very fair as well. We are now hiring him to do a full camera install on the property, and will be hiring him for any future low voltage needs. I can't say enough positive words about his work ethic, and after going through so much stress this year with losing everything, working with him has been such an easy and calm experience.

Worse place to work for! This company was much more effective and productive when Mike Perrish was…read morein charge. The current owner, Aaron, which was Mike's son in law, tends to take the authoritarian approach when "managing" the business. He is irrational and lacks knowledge of the business/industry entirely! I would recommend looking else where for work, as the owner lacks empathy and doesn't care to produce a positive working environment.

We have been paying monthly for All Safe at least 30 years. We were in London and got a call that…read morethe alarm was going off. No fire department, no police and no call from All Safe.I called All Safe and told them I had a housesitter with an infant and asked for their help. They told me the phone line was disconnected and the backup radio was outdated. We had no security at all. I begged for someone to turn the alarm off. They said they'd send someone tomorrow. I asked my husband to talk to Aaron, who said he was the owner, over the phone. Aaron slammed the phone down and hung up on my husband. We've switched to a competitor which is much better and half as expensive. BEWARE even if you're already an All Safe customer!

He was constantly looking at his phone but not communicating with us at all. He did crack a few jokes with another associate.

First Alarm, having such little respect for their customers regarding their contract, sets up a huge red flag for me.

At first my wife wanted me to talk to a few more companies so we could compare equipments and price. But after talking to Core Surveillance, I had good feelings about them. So we decided to go with them. It took a day to set up the system. The crew that did the work were very pleasant. They explained the details to us before the installation and also worked around the little changes we requested. Now this system is up and running -- very smooth. Camera images are excellent. John did a good job explaining to us how to use this system. Thanks to John and another gentleman whose name I missed (sorry). You all are superb. Thanks for the job well done.
