I wanted to take a moment and express…

I wanted to take a moment and express my outstanding experience I’ve had over last 10 years. I used advanced security on a home in Az apx 10 years ago. Victor was amazing handling all my needs and questions on that system. Monitoring has been very efficient on alarm calls. I reached out to Victor regarding setting up an alarm system in my new home in Ca. Victor walked me through the whole process in picking out the sensors that would make property safe. I accidentally cleared my system when I was in the programming mode. I reached out to Victor on After hours apx 10pm. Expected a call back for assistance the next day. He actually responded within minutes and walked me through reprogramming the system that was my mistake. I highly recommend this company for anyone considering a security system. A plus service

Great service at a fair price

I needed to have my Jeep key fob replaced…. I thought until I visited Advanced Security in Timonium. I explained to Rashad that the key fob was not working and the dealer wanted an excessive amount to replace it. Rashad took the dead fob and my good fob and investigated the problem and resolved my issue without having to replace the fob, and at a lower price. Bottom line is the Rashad and Advanced Security provide great customer service at a fair price.

Toxic Leadership and Customer Service

I have used a number of home security companies over the years, and Advanced Security, LLC is by far the worst. After about 6 years of using a local company that was beginning to struggle to provide support, I made the switch to Advanced Security. In addition, I used it as an opportunity to replace a panel, which stopped working. They sent me a completely defective panel in both esthetics and function and that is where the problems began. Upon receipt of the panel, I was eager to get it installed. The first thing I noticed when powering it on was the electrical panel not being flush with the panel housing and emitted light from the bottom corner. I was still willing to accept the product with the panel flaws if it worked. I was able to connect to Wi-Fi, but was not able to get the software to download, which rendered the product inoperable. When I brought the issue to the company manager’s attention, he quickly became unhinged and insulting. He basically called me a liar, which left me dumbfounded. I have never been treated with such distain by a company before, especially one that I was in contract with to provide a service. The product was completely defective, and he wanted me to take a loss on the purchase instead of providing a full refund that any other company would do without question. He tried to intimidate me because I was a customer, expecting me to submit to his rude tactics. I had to fight to receive a full refund, which resulted in their “Cancel Culture.” After that they treated me with disrespect and would not provide any tech support or otherwise until the payment terms had ended, most recently. Cancel culture represents the worst qualities in America. I could not recommend this company in good conscience.

We are not in the business to bad mouth our customers so we will just say, Not all customers are right for our business. This customer has bounced around to a few monitoring stations and now I see why. We choose not to renew his services because of some activity he did to us through Ebay by disputing a transaction. We choose to end our relationship because we could not provide him with the level of service we pride ourselves on after what he did to us. We offered him plenty of notice to find someone else but he is trying do get service on a system that is not supported anymore. The manufacture closed its operations years ago so the system or not being updated anymore and there is no tech support on Ultra Sync systems any longer. He knew that upfront, because we told him that. He returned a product claiming it was "defective" but we took a photo of the returned item and sent it to him, showing him it was not defective. We wish him well with his new alarm company.. again!

Again, this customer ordered the product he received and a fire and life safety devices are listed in our public return policy as non-returnable to protect our customers. We are sorry you ordered the wrong part, but that is not our fault.

We are experiencing staffing issues and increased demand so we are not able to get to our phones but we do return emails and voice messages. I do not see either from you. Sorry for your experience!

Great product range, fast response times - overall an excellent and professional company to deal with!

Excellent - no reservations, I would recommend this company to anyone. Thank you Advanced Security :)

I purchased 2 alarm systems from Advanced Security and the staff (Victor in my case) went above and beyond to help me out with my, let's say, less-than-normal requirements!

Some time after my initial purchase I required some additional assistance and Advanced Security responded promptly and sorted it out for without hesitation and with ease.

Intend buying more equipment soon. Cannot recommend Advanced Security highly enough!

I am sorry you feel that way however the item was not shipped the way you returned it, we only sell and ship BRAND NEW items and I personally inspected and shipped your order. The damage caused to the outside casing was caused by improperly prying open the cover and not a defect from us or the manufacture.

Solid Customer Service

Ordered equipment shipped timely and arrived in pristine condition. We had one item that needed to be swapped out. Victor was easy to work with and quickly helped meet our needs. Bravo zulu to Advanced Security!

Referred a family member to Victor...so there you go.

DIY buyer gets helpful advice

I am building a new home and wanted to have a high quality alarm system with surveillance and home automation. I chose Interlogix UltraSync modular hub system because of its customizable features and extensive capabilities. Unfortunately, many companies will not even talk to you if you want to install it yourself. After two bad experiences with other companies, I hesitantly gave Advanced Security a try. The speed at which they fulfilled my order encouraged me to order again. The second order was quite large. Victor saw the order and noticed a conflict with my previous purchase. He reached out to me to verify the order was correct. I was impressed with his concern and asked if he could answer several questions. After a couple weeks & a couple dozen emails, I was confident in my purchases and placed more orders. Because Advanced Security recently started selling UltraSync, Victor wasn't completely certain about multiple questions; however, he took the time to reach out to his supplier and Interlogix to get accurate information. He never once fed me b.s. That what I call top notch service. I intend to be a customer for many years to come.

Victor is EXCELLENT!

We have 12 locations setup with Victor, and I have also used Victor for several of my friends and family to protect their homes. Victor is literally ALWAYS available to help you with excellent customer service. Day or night. We wouldn’t consider any other options as a business or residence security customer.
