Guardian representatives came to my home, assessed my security needs, and suggested alternative services. They even showed me a video to explain things. They were polite , friendly and professional. An appointment was scheduled for installation, but they called me sooner when an appointment was cancelled. The installer was very professional and explained how it was operated. Later, when one of my motion detectors loosened on the wall, they came out within a few days to repair it. When I accidentally set off the alarm system, they responded promptly from the call box and on the telephone. I am very satisfied with their services.
Description of Work: Assessed my security needs, made suggestions on a plan, installed security system, serviced system.

I’d recommend Guardian. They're quite good. I like that they have voice to voice contact and their service is very prompt. It's a first cell service which is important to me. Whenever I call in for service I get a very good, prompt response. There was a billing issue at the beginning but it was resolved quickly. However, they don't offer up to date things like garage monitoring so I'll probably be switching when my contract is up.
Description of Work: This is my alarm system. I've been using them since 2012.

I got them through Angie's List. When I got the alarm system, it came with Guardian. I didn't want ADT, and this system was the most up to date. It's a great system as far as me knowing what's going on at home. The system really works!
Description of Work: This is my alarm system company. I'm currently working on my home and I have to talk to them every week. I can control the thermostat & locks by phone. The system will text message you if something is wrong.

Their price is reasonable. We initially went with them because our neighbors were going with them. They also had a special. The service has been good. If we ever have a problem, they come right out. They're very responsive. The only scary thing is that we have an elderly parent living with us who may open the door and the alarm will go off; we have to punch the numbers into the pad. We always have a fear that the police will be pulling up. They're good but maybe their response time might be a little faster. We did have a negative interaction with someone who responded through the alarm box. I complained and they were responsive and apologetic.
Description of Work: This is our current alarm system company. We've been using them for 2 years. We have a monthly contract with them.
