Buyer and Customer Beware!…read more Recently I noticed my app was not working to arm and disarm my alarm. After calling Rampart, they said "yes currently our services are offline". Then I asked if that meant we would not be covered by monitoring for fire or burglary. They said "yes, that's correct". I was completely flabbergasted. Three large issues for me: - They never notified their clients the monitoring service was offline. My first issue was at 9PM the night before I called. When I called Rampart around 9AM the next day, the guy on the phone said: "Oh yeah it's down, but it hasn't been down that long". To which I replied "yes it has, my home has been unprotected for 12+ hours". - After researching the app communications, I quickly was able to determine the IP address involved was from BOLIVIA. The IP was registered to "Bulgaria Sofiya Residence Control" - Why on planet Earth would I want my home secured through a server in Bolivia which is now down? That IP address was 212.73.143.204. - The monthly service fee they charge is much higher than the service we received. The monitoring service was the cheapest available, likely turning $20-25/mo in profit for adding absolutely zero value. They use a third-party service called "m2mservices" which is hosted on a server in Bolivia. https://m2mservices.com/ The device is the cheapest available and the service, being outside of the US, is most likely also the cheapest possible. After calling back, they had zero problems refunding our entire charge.. which is too bad... we were a customer for over eight years without a miss in payment. Stay away, the company doesn't care if your home is protected, or at least not enough to tell you about it.

Very responsive, they have done upgrades to our system that we have had for more than 25 years. We…read moreadded cell coverage so we no longer needed a land line. And their montering service is less than the 'big' guy out there. We would highly recommend Rampart!

Further, why 3 year contracts when they don't pay for the equipment...they charge the customer up front.

This review has been edited:…read more I am editing this review and changing my rating from 2 to 5. Why? Because of the customer service I received after posting this review. I got a call from Neil whose father started the business 30 years ago. He apologized and asked for details. I told him I appreciated the call and would amend my review. He said that was necessary as that is the point of reviews and they messed up. In our conversation, I mentioned that ADT was not scheduled for another week when I am back in town. He asked if he could come over and speak with me about my services. He apologized, discussed my service with me and I chose to renew my agreement with Atronic. They came out today (10/13) to get me hooked back up and I had some requests that they accommodated. I appreciate a local company that takes pride in their work and is not too proud to prove themselves again and ask for your business. ___________________________ This review is more about the service than the product. I moved to KC three years ago and the home I bought had Atronic. I contacted them and continued the service. I wanted to do business with them since they are local and not go with someone like ADT. I switched to Google Fiber 9 months ago and got rid of my land line phone. My security system would not work without the land line. I called and there were some expensive wireless hook up charges and in addition, the monthly fee went up $10 a month. I asked to have the set-up waived since I was a current customer. They would not do it. I decided to cancel service since I never use it. 9 months later I decide I want to re-activate my service. I call them to arrange it and they no longer charge the set-up fee, but the increased monthly fee. Fine. I am told I will get a call with someone to arrange it. Three weeks later I have not heard from anyone. I call back and am told that a form was emailed to me and they were waiting to get it back....from three weeks ago. I never received it. They sent another and it went into my Junk folder, but I was watching for it this time. In those three weeks, I had a call from ADT and went through a quote process with them. It was a better deal, much better actually, and I said no because I wanted to keep it local. Atronic is now waiting on me to fill out a new form (never mind I was already a customer and they have one on file) and they will get me on a service call list once I return it. ADT offered to have a Service Technician out the next day if I would sign up with them. Hello, ADT! Where have you been all my life? If you want to give your money to a company that wants it, I would suggest looking elsewhere. There are other local options.

Absolute garbage company. Their panel has gone out after less than 6 months of use, I now have to…read morepay $60 for their tech to come out and fix a part that is still under warranty.

One of the worst companies I've ever dealt with in the security industry, and that's saying a lot…read more They only care about getting their money, not about customer service or solving problems. They never completely installed the smart home system promised. In addition, after my account was paid off they would not release the cellular number associated with the panel so I could not change companies with it. I ended up replacing the system with Vivint; although they have their own issues, Vivint is far more reliable and user friendly to work with. Safe Haven is giving ADT a bad name. AVOID THESE GUYS!

So the suggestion was that we pay money to upgrade the app (because their 5 year contract does not cover 5 years of operability) OR...we can sign another contract NOW and get the upgrade for free. This will lock us in another 5 years with the company that couldn't provide satisfactory service on the existing contract. This is not the company you want as your home security partner. Interesting the first review dated 12/16/2019 here on Yelp from of "Samuel N." who worked (works?) there as a Sales Engineer should know, it's not the same company Samuel. They lost integrity along the way. Some business success is at the expense of their customers. Oh... and the average monitoring service prices in the area is around $30.00. Not over $50.00. You too will be looking for a takeover company by the end of this contract. Save yourself the headache.
