I contacted Alee with HiTek Telecom to get a quote on a complete network job for my home. Not only do my spouse that I work from home, but I also do a lot of photography and video that I transfer back-and-forth on my network and into the cloud. I was tired of poor and drop connections with my consumer level Wi-Fi system. In addition, I wanted a local security camera system that I can control without relying on a cloud service. After receiving a quote and agreeing on the scope of work, I scheduled the installation. Alee came out on time on the date scheduled and we walked through the plan of installation and confirmed what all my needs were. Alee and his team worked through the day and completed the install job in an incredibly professional manner. The installation and the cable runs, and all of the final product was exactly as described. After the install, Alee walked me through downloading all of the software that I needed, how to access and navigate the system, how to navigate and operate the security cameras, and ensure that everything was working properly. To be sure, this was a relatively large install for a residential application. I wanted ethernet drops in every room of my house, a new professional grade network cabinet, in-ceiling WIFi network, and a new suite of security cameras. I couldn't have asked for a better end product. I am quite pleased with the attention to detail of the install and making sure everything was perfect, workmanlike, and care was taken in my home. Alee came back out to adjust a couple of things for me after the fact and install an additional camera. Again, he was on time on the scheduled day. The workmanship was just as good and the communication has been stellar throughout. I truly can't recommend HiTek and Alee enough. Top-notch product and top-notch service.

He was knowledgeable, helpful, and took the time to answer all of our questions. A few weeks later, we visited with Devin to finalize a quote for a Home Security system. He was able to tailor a system to meet the needs of our family at a price that we felt was fair. We had a few minor issues with the installation process but they corrected everything in a very timely manner. Landon was our installer and he proved to be friendly, respectful, and helpful. We LOVE the product and the features available provide peace of mind along with a nice cool factor. We feel that the incentive program to stay beyond the contract along with the referral source is a great one too. Minus the paperwork mishap that should not have happened, our overall experience has been positive. We like the fact it's a local company and their response time has been very good.

DO NOT USE MONOTRONICS!!!! WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE OUT THERE. YES EVEN WORSE THEN COMCAST CUSTOMER…read moreSERVICE!!! Here is why. Upstairs Pin pad wouldnt show icons after batery chg. So I called customer service a 2nd time on the same day. The represenitive had me try everything we could for 45 plus minutes. After not being able to fix it over the phone she stated she would have a service agent call me tomorrow (Wednesday) to schedule an appointment. I said that's fine and could I get a phone number of that department in case they don't call. The rep, let me clarify, a Monotronics rep told me they use Contractors to do the service and the contractor has told Monotronics NOT to give out that phone number but they will call. I find this ridiculous! What company lets there workers, venders or contractors dictate and tell the actual company what to do. So Wednesday 7.22.15 I get a call at work from the contractor company. And that rep said the earliest we can come out is August 5th between 11 and 2pm. I told them that, that's not going to work as I don't get off till 2:30 pm and my wife at 3:30 pm and the soonest I can be home is 3pm and the fact that the whole second floor of my house is not armed (no security) That rep said the contractors don't work past 2pm which is a lie because we were told last year when we inquired about adding some window pins for extra security that the techs stop doing service calls at 2pm but for new service they will work until at least 7pm. And they came out around 5 to 6 pm when we started our service. THIS IS HORRIBLE SERVICE right here to penalize your customers if they want to add items or fix something but if you want new service they will accommodate you for sure... So then the rep said sorry we can't help you and I will send this back to Monotronics. No lie!!!! 30 min later a Monotronics Rep called me and stated what the contractor rep told me and that she was going to find me someone after 3pm and could I hold. I said I am at work and I should be working so could you call me back she said she would in about 15 min. I then reiterated that Monday thru Thursday at 3pm and after will work! The rep said she got it and that she would get back to me. Again this was Wednesday 7.22.15. And guess what never ever got a call back! NOT A SHOCKER!!! So 2 days later today Friday 7.24.15 I call Monotronics and ask for a supervisor or a manager. The agent put me on a 15 min hold of course. The lady maybe named Theresa said she was an account manager. So I told her the whole story I just wrote. I reiterated that it was ridiculous that no one does service calls from 3pm and after and that this is very important because half of my house is not secured! So she said she heard what I said and that if I could hold she will search for a contractor. After another 15 min she (The supposable Manager) tells me I was right that the first contractor that called me only worked till 2pm and no Saturdays. I was like you put me on hold to check out if I lied about what the contractor said, She said she was sorry and if I could hold a bit longer she is calling another contractor. About 20 mins later this account manager said well I found someone to come service you on August 5th between 1 and 3pm. I was dumfounded at her answer! I asked her if she heard a word I was said to her she said yes but was wondering if I could have a neighbor or friend wait at the house while someone fixes my security system. How ridiculous is that. IT IS MY FAMILY PERSONAL HOME SECURITY! Having neighbors and friends knowing your codes and system fixes is Ludacris!!!! Lastly I asked this manger to tell me the truth that if I was asking for new service would they come out at any time, but you have a cut off time for service? She would not answer and only talked over me and said she would have this escalated and that team would call me in 48 hours. Lolololol 48 hours Reading this please take away the HORRIBLE Customer service. Also take away that once they install your system you will need to take a day off plus wait a while until they can fit you in. And lastly take away that they know full well that I have NO SECURITY for my 2nd floor of my house and that they are fine taking 48 hours to get back to you and ok with scheduling service 2 plus weeks out, that they are NOT CONCERNED WITH YOUR SECURITY. The only thing they are concerned with is that monthly payment. Again DO NOT USE MONOTRONICS!
