I had a phone call with one tech who logged on to my computer remotely, then figured out that they could not fix the problem. Now I am waiting for a physical person to show up, after being promised that, and they have not scheduled anyone and I have not gotten any response to my email. We spoke on Thursday, they said "We will try and have someone out tomorrow". It's now Wednesday and radio silence.

I asked this company to check the defunct HD on my relatively new CCTV. They said they don't work…read moreon systems they didn't install. They said they would sell me a new system. The cost for a new system was in the thousands. I called a computer repair company in Walnut Creek. They replaced the defective CCTV HD with a much greater capacity industrial quality CCTV HD in a matter of minutes! Cost of the industrial quality CCTV HD (4 times larger capacity than the original HD) was $150.00!!! Works great !!!

I deducted a star since I felt the sales rep wasted our time (it was very difficult to try to politely end the video call with him) by trying to tell us that consumer-grade cameras weren't going to meet our needs and he tried to upsell us by showing an unrealistic simulation of how fuzzy the images would look compared to their systems he wanted us to buy. Brian wasn't able to get one of our pre-existing wired professional camera system to work, and he dropped communication and delayed appointments by months several times while this was all happening, but I appreciate that he didn't charge us for this, so I'm just adding this as an FYI.

When I refer Kyle to my clients, he is very responsive. Sometimes we are on a short timeline, and I know we can always count on Kyle to get on it quickly. I trust him, and his team, completely.

They listened carefully to our requirements, promptly recommended a solution and then came over within a few days to do the installation.

The kind of service that Alex and Bay Area Smart Home offer was above and beyond anything I expected. I can't recommend them enough.

He also set up a complete surveillance system with Ubiquiti UniFi Protect Cameras, ensuring clear video quality and reliable monitoring. In addition, he installed a professional door access control system using Ubiquiti UniFi Access, allowing secure entry with key cards, PIN codes, and mobile access. He configured everything perfectly, including the network rack, patch panels, PoE switching, and cable management, making the entire setup clean and well-organized. Orkhan also handled the installation of the router, firewall configuration, and remote access setup, ensuring the system is secure and easy to manage. The work was done professionally, on time, and with great attention to detail. Everything is running smoothly, and I highly recommend Orkhan for any networking, security, or low-voltage installation projects.

From the very beginning of the process to the very end, he was extremely professional. He went well beyond just installing the cameras--he took the time to understand my preferences and worked with me to come up with solutions given both the constraints of the house and exactly what I was looking for. He came up with creative ideas and was incredibly meticulous throughout. It was clear he genuinely cared about the house and about getting everything done in a neat, clean way. I'm particular about cables being hidden and out of sight, and he took that to heart and made sure everything looked tidy. All around, he did an amazing job.

Greg and his team at Smart Home Security Control have been amazing to us for nearly ten years…read more We've installed multiple cameras in our small business in Walnut Creek and haven't had a single issue.

I had a couple of TV installation needs - one simple and one which was more complex.  A friend recommended a company he used which got good Yelp reviews.  So I was pretty much sold on that one.  But communication was lacking so I submitted a Yelp quote request for other businesses. Greg then reached out to me with specific questions to understand my needs and gave me options I never even considered.  He then asked if his installer Carl could drop by my home to make sure the installation was possible even before giving me a quote. The other businesses just sent me quotes which were vague and some of which were very expensive. Customer service and communication are so important especially for services in your own home.  Greg was involved every step of the way and invested in making sure I was getting what I wanted.  He answered all my questions promptly and in such a friendly manner.  Scheduling the installation appointment was a breeze.  On the day of installation Carl communicated with me about when he would arrive.  Carl was very professional and followed all COVID precautions.  His work was fantastic and I could tell he was experienced and dedicated to doing a good job.  He also installed a heavy wall hanging which I am pretty sure is a "menial task" for this company.  But they were kind enough to go the extra mile. I am very pleased with how everything turned out.  I had confidence in them from the beginning but until the job is complete, you never REALLY know.  Now you know - they are top notch.
