The name ADT just doesnt come on its own without the staff/representatives. The name ADT comes with the way the people perform their services...more importantly the way they conduct themselves with customers and their integrity and patience in answering all the questions as well as going above and beyond to make sure that full satisfaction is complete. I am so grateful for Bryan Alvarado and Carlos Alvarado with their service. After completion of their job Bryan left my house with assurance that he is available at any given time should I have any concerning questions. Technology can become

Let me begin by providing background information. Recently there had been people walking up to our door after 8 PM CLAIMING they were "neighborhood watch" or selling security. After the second time, it was apparent that we were being scouted for a burglary. Needless to say, we no longer felt secure at home. I stayed awake until 4 AM that night to make sure nothing happened. My wife called Advanced Home Connect the following day at 3:30 PM and Carlos was kind enough to schedule us in from 5-6 PM on that same day. Carlos showed up on time and was incredibly friendly. I informed him of our situation

Highly recommended without hesitation. I found Advanced Home Connect through ADT's authorized dealer program. I checked AHC's website, read online reviews (including those here), and made an appointment through its website. A few days later AHC's owner, Carlos, visited my property. He didn't try to pressure or scare me, and he did not try to upsell me. Carlos simply listened to what I wanted and provided sensible suggestions. He's unquestionably knowledgeable and professional. He followed up with a very reasonable estimate and I hired AHC. A week later, Carlos installed the system himself, and
