The cell service outages from the Verizon that Tattletale using is sometimes frustrating when you can not remote arm your system. If we where notify there is a problem before we have to call to find out there is a problem would be great!

Great system

Great system. Complete confidence that we are protected. Excellent value and love the fact that the system can move with us if need be. We would definitely recommend the company to others, and have. We had initially ordered the black unit and a white one was delivered. Apparently the black unit was out of stock. Waiting on the black to be sent and then we will be 100% satisfied.

Our company has had several burglaries over the past 37+ years that we have been in business, and until recently when we had the Tattletale system installed, our property loss has been greatly reduced, if not eliminated. Also the ability to monitor and arm/disarm the system through the mobile app has proved to be a valuable asset with employees coming and going at all hours of the day and night. Just wish we would have installed the system years earlier. Lastly, I would like to commend Tattletales representative "Greg" for taking the time to thoroughly explain the system prior to the sale.

System generally is good and operates well. There has been one complaint from the guards who monitor the base station. They say you cannot control the volume of the audible alarm. They wish you could control it due to the base station being right on the desk next to them.

My Tattletail unit has performed flawlessly. It has protected the materials, tools and machinery for my custom furniture studio for 4 years. I have 2 door sensors, 2 motion sensors and a fire/smoke alarm. The Tattletail call center has provided great coverage and the technicians have helped me solve some issues that were peculiar to my location and upgraded my system as new advances become available. It is without any reservation that I would recommend Tattletail to anyone seeking protection for their property.

I like the Tattletale alarm system

I like the Tattletale alarm system. It is user friendly and the company is easy to work with. My only complaint is that the monitoring cost should be the same as Simply Safe. Otherwise, it is perfect.

15 years didn't Matter to Tattle Tale!!

I was called and told I would have to upgrade at a cost of over $1,000. It didn't matter that I was a loyal customer for over 15 years. Basically I was told pay the cost or my service would be disconnected. So I got another service at half the monthly fee tattle tale was charging me though I did have to invest in the system at approximately $700. I'm officially in the black and never an issue with the new provider.
