I've been a Safeguard customer for about 6 years now. When we moved, it was a no-brainer to have them update the old ADT alarm in the new place. The salesperson, Steve Compton, who I've worked with before, and I did a walkthrough and added a few new sensors, reusing sensors from the old system where we could, which saved me money. The new alarm system has a bunch of great features, like status and arming from your cellphone and even (for a minor extra cost) home automation functionality, it's a nice upgrade from the earlier "traditional" alarm at the old house. But it's Safeguard's service and alarm center that are the reason I keep recommending them! Always very polite and knowledgeable, even with a false alarm in the middle of the night! When a part failed just after install on our original house they were back the next day (Christmas Eve!) to fix it, and when we decided to move a sensor that was being triggered by a pet Safeguard did that as well, at no charge! Yes, the monthly fee ($45) is expensive, but it's worth the piece of mind.

We performed physical and remote regular testing of our central monitored system and updated our security information…ALL went quickly, smoothly and accurately as always for the past 15 years. Highly recommend SAFEGUARD for quality of services as well as excellent "customer care".

Description of Work: This company replaced an older existing system with a new top of the line system. The installation was flawless and the two techs that worked on the system were professional and skilled. Their pricing structure was higher than other valley companies.I found that the sales rep was a bit bitchy. He refused to return my calls after the installation and I had to call him several times to schedule additional work.

I can't say enough about Safeguard. They've been better than any other company in Arizona. They even monitor our alarm systems. The monitoring system is outstanding. Safeguard is reliable and punctual. They're very congenial to work with. The staff breaks down the information into layman terms. I would absolutely recommend them.

After shopping around and getting some referrals, I decided to go with Safeguard security for my home security system. They were incredibly friendly and responsive. They had someone meet me at my home for a pre-installation inspection. Then, based on his recommendations, I purchased the equipment, and scheduled the installation. They were right on time, professional, and did a great job. Since then, I had an issue with one of the motion sensors. They sent a technician to fix it, and again -- he was professional, showed up right on time, and fixed the problem. Since having the system installed, I have set it off a couple of times. Their monitoring service is on the ball, and their representatives are always professional and pleasant. Based on my experience, I recommend Safeguard to anyone.
