They were very helpful in the beginning. Everything works as it should except the app, which doesn't work at all. I've called them and tried to get it to work, reset it, and now I've just given up on the app. They're easy enough to install, but it does seem pretty high at premium to pay each month.

When I first called Protect America's customer service, they set everything up with me in a really short time. It's a security system that's really easy to use.

When you need their customer support, their response is immediate. They're really nice to talk to on the phone. Sometimes their sensors are a little difficult to install.

I've had a couple issues here and there, but their customer service hasn't made it too bad. They have a great value for what they offer, but their equipment controllers are kind of outdated.

It seems that even though I have installed it I feel like something is missing from the setup. I mean I'm not sure the camera works to be honest and if I was able to watch the exterior would be nice as well.

I feel like I was told a lot of things to do in my initial chat, and then come to find out it was different. The sensors won't stay in place, they say the door is open when it is closed. I keep getting false alarms when nobody is in the house and the motion sensors are going off.

It was more difficult to install than I was led to believe. The equipment draws a lot of electricity. It costs me about $180 a month for electricity which seems crazy. I don't get alerts when it's not working, and you have to have WIFI to get the cameras to work.

One time, they hooked one of the fobs to the panic button, and the police came while my wife was trying to turn it off. Their system doesn't work half the time. One night, I disarmed my sistem at 5:30pm, but I didn't get an email notification about that until 12:00am. Their system is so weak, that the signal doesn't work to notify me about what's happening.

Now that I have upgraded to the touch keypad, setting the alarm is much easier. If there is a problem the alarm company talks thru the keypad and that is a big plus.

Right now I'm not completely happy with customer service. When I got my contract with them, they said that the amount I would pay monthly would not change. So far it has gone up by about 6 more dollars than what they said it would. Other than that it has worked well so far.

I chose them because they offered good pricing and coverage. The equipment is great, but their customer service could use a little work. It's hard to speak to someone to rectify issues. It's not really reasonable for a security company to put you on hold as long as they do.
