Don Moldovan Saratoga Springs, NY

The product was easy to install, the telephone support was initially disappointing because of their poor connection on their end with fading voice connection and noise in the background. Yesterday, when I ordered two more sensors the telephone support was very good. The phone connection was better and I could hear and understand the person on the other end. When I first ordered the product, their rep. canceled the order by mistake and no one contacted me. I had to reorder the product again and setup the sensor tagging again. This is important to do at time of order. I received poor support for the outdoor camera. The SD card had no instruction and their video did not show how to insert the card. I am hopeful the monitoring performs well in the future.

Appreciate you sharing your experience. Have we since resolved the issues you were having with the camera? Feel free to reach out if we have not. If your panel and sensors are connected and communicating with the monitoring centers, the monitoring will perform accurately and quickly as it is designed to.

Our experience with Cove has been overall very good. Only complaint we had was when our alarm was accidentally triggered it took over 10 minutes for the monitor center to call. A lot can go wrong in 10 minutes, when I asked the rep about it she ignored the question and disconnected; otherwise, would be a five star review. Had to call Customer Service when we first got the system and they were amazing!!!

Thanks for sharing your experience and feedback! We greatly appreciate it. We would love to take a look into the reason why it took our monitoring center more than 10 minutes to call. They're supposed to call within 1 minute. Reach out to our customer support, and they'll be happy to figure out the issue. Thanks again!

It’s been great. Wish Cove would carry there own camera system for indoor and outdoor. I also think they should have there own smart locks and doorbell. This would be the topping on the cake. I have all of the equipment I mentioned and it’s just a pain in a butt too have 5 different products versus just one.

The customer service at Cove is amazing and I am very impressed with that aspect of the company. I have had a couple glitches with the equipment, but nothing major and it was easily rectified over the phone.

I like that the installation process was fairly self explanatory. I think that their alarm verification process could be a little easier. We set off our alarm a few times and it is difficult to report a false alarm

Customer service was good even though I received the call center in the weekend a representative returns my call within 10 minutes. When I set my alarm go away it defaults back to at home. Why is that?

Thanks Melissa for your review. To answer your question: Our panel assumes you are staying home if you don't open a door after arming away from the panel and defaults to "Stay" mode to prevent false alarms. If you use your smartphone app or remote to arm away then this won't happen.

Everything about the ordering & installation was a breeze. I’ve contacted their customer service on multiple occasions with questions and feedback & they were nothing but receptive and informative. They are always quick to return my emails an provide a friendly atmosphere. I have referred many family members and friends in their direction. The only downsides are the security camera they offer is not integrated in the app or system at all, they do not allow custom options for individual sensors, and they currently do not have an online computer portal. But for the price and customer service , they can’t be beat.

Thanks, Kyle for the great feedback. We always want to get better. We will have integrated cameras into the Cove app by the end of this calendar year. We will also have a customer portal by the end of this summer as well. Always wanting to get better.

We do strive to have prompt and friendly customer service people. It is very important to us.

My Experience with Cove Palmetto, GA

Easy Installation and customer service is great also. The only issue I had was when I first got my system, had to have a sensor replaced. Battery was not working.

Good Service. Needs App for all Plans.

It''s a good system but it sort of ridiculous that the basic monitoring plan does not come with the App access. It should at least allow payments and some set up.

Joyce Rapp Mentone, CA

I posted a review and got a call from a different rep. I explained the extreme circumstances that we are going through that the previous customer service rep didn't give me a chance to explain. This rep was willing to bend in order to keep us as customers and I appreciate that very much. I did find out some things about the camera that I wasn't told when we bought the system, which adds to the monthly price - one basis for our purchasing the system and service - so that's why I'm giving only four stars. I guess there is a steep learning curve for people starting a new business.

Overall it is a great system. It was easy to install and works well. I am not fond of the control panel. I wish it had Alexa integration.
