I was grateful that he suggested solar which worked out better for me in the long run. He also took the time to set up my app which I appreciate.

Carlos is pleasant, efficient and easy to work with. I would recommend Carlos. He will do his best for you at a reasonable price.

He's very kind and communicative and seems to really care about his customers. He got the job done as promised and is great about dealing with excessive questions from one who never had or wanted an alarm but has one now. I definitely recommend this company. He couldn't have done a better job! I had him do the hot cold sensor also required in case it freezes in the desert. Could it be more annoying to have to have that in the desert? My only regret is I didn't have him set up the Moen water shut off also required. I thought I needed a plumber. If you're stuck with these annoying new insurance requirements he can handle it all and make it easy for you!

Carlos and team have always been thoughtful and patient during the consulting/planning phase, efficient and detail oriented during installation -- and quick to respond the few times maintenance has been required. With our most recent project, a conversion toward AHC's in-house security monitoring services, Lorena, the super-friendly and knowledgeable service manager, fielded questions, provided quotes, scheduled installation, and addressed follow-up requests quickly and flawlessly. Victor, a true pro who's worked on other projects for us, managed the installation and setup process -- once again delivering exceptional and timely service! It's without hesitation that I highly recommend AHC Alarms.

Thank you so much AHC Alarms! I was in dire need of a local home security and monitoring team to…read moreinstall top notch equipment and monitor my home. The staff at AHC has made me feel that I have a trusted company monitoring my home internally and externally. Installation was almost immediate. Response time/attention to detail with AHC is extremely timely and coupled with authorities is beyond what I could ask for. Restful sleep has been sleep long overdue. I can now feel secure knowing that there is local monitoring and patrol on my side. A very big shout out and thank you to Lorena and Travis! Lorena is not only sincere, but she made me feel that my safety was her number one concern! Travis was also extremely professional, kind and made me feel that I made the right choice. If you are looking for a local, family oriented business with customer safety and superior monitoring/security then AHC is your company!!! Thank you again to everyone at AHC Alarm.

Jose wasn't licensed, bonded or insured. He was an illegal Mexican that didn't even have a checking account. He wanted us to Zelle him half deposit to buy the materials. Only catch was we had to wire the money to his sisters account. All this raised a RED FLAG with us especially when he wanted $750 to take care of the problem. We ended up calling a licensed plumber that only charged us $500 and was able to take care of the problem on the spot and only took him 20 minutes. What kind of shady company is Desert Alarm??!! Using unlicensed people is not cool at all! We have everything in writing and voice mail from Jose We are regretting ever calling Desert Alarm!!!!!!!!!!!

I really didn't want to give them a poor rating, but I felt like they left me no choice…read more This review is based on their customer service. I needed someone to go out to a rental property to change a system battery. We no longer live in the desert and our tenant does not have a contract with any company for monitoring. I contacted Comtron to get a quote. I clearly explained the situation to the girl who answered the phone. She asked for the property address to look it up in their system. I told her we do not have service with them. She gave me the quote of $55 for the service call and $50 for the battery. I told her I would call her back after I spoke with my husband. I called back less than an hour later. The girl I spoke to (not the same as the first call) said she would set up a walk through to get a quote. Huh? I explained that I already got a quote and was just calling back to schedule the service. She said I was misquoted and they do not do service calls for non customers. I asked to speak with the manager....Jenny got on the phone, I explained the problem to her. She agreed that I was misquoted. She also stated she has a "couple of new girls in the office". She apologised for the mix up. When I told her I was going to give them a poor review she asked me not to and if I could get her the name of the system she would see what she could do. I phoned her back about 30 minutes later (just about 5:00pm). The girl who answered the phone just answered by saying "hello"...I asked if this was Comtron and she said it was. (odd!) When I asked for Jenny she said she had already left for the day. No problem. I left my contact information and explained that Jenny was expecting my call and ask that she call me when she got in the following day. That was two days ago. I just now received a call for Jenny. She didn't quite remember me and asked when I wanted them to come out to set up service. Nope. I reminded her of who I was and why I had called and left my information. Her response: "oh! you're THAT Lisa, I don't know why they put you on my calendar to call you". Really? I told her I had called her back just like she asked me to. I explained that when I hadn't heard back from her yesterday I just contacted a different company. She seemed very confused. My impression is they totally lack any sort of customer service and are completely disorganized. Good luck if you choose Comtron.

Once we closed and moved in we were contacted by Smart Tech's service tech JP. JP came to our house for the "white glove" move-in service, which consisted of explaining all of the options that Smart Tech offers to the homeowners in this community, and to our surprise, a free Ring front gate camera and keyless entry system from the garage into the house. JP was so professional, courteous and knowledgeable that we decided to go with Smart Tech to install/mount all of our TV's, install a web mesh system, and install all of our audio/video systems. This was a pretty big project that included mounting 6 TV's, 3 web mesh locations throughout the house and 2 Dolby surround systems, as well as a audio sound system on the back patio. JP and Steve, also from Smart Tech, took care of this entire project in one day. Their work was impeccable! TV's were mounted perfectly and they left the work areas spotless. Both JP and Steve were professional, courteous, very friendly and super helpful explaining all of the info involved with all of the installation. I read most of the reviews here on Smart Tech prior to hiring them and noticed that most of the reviews were for security systems. I really felt it was important to add this review because they did such an exceptional job on our audio/video systems. I would recommend Smart Tech to anyone looking for this type of project. Great company, with great employees! JP and Steve, thanks again, you guys are awesome!

We were customers for thirteen years and there was no appreciation for our long term commitment to them. We cancelled our service because we sold our house and were moving and the difficulty of cancelling our service was amazing.
