Our house was burglarized and our current monitoring company would not send any technician immediately. I shopped around for another company to upgrade our alarm system. Smart Shield Systems’ good reviews caught my eyes. I called on Saturday and Ron came to our house on Sunday. He looked around our house and gave very good explanations and a price quote on the spot. Once we decided to proceed, Ron fitted us in the schedule in the same week. The installation team led by Yud and Tony was very awesome. They worked at our house for the entire day to install the system and gave us detailed tutoring how to use the systems. They are professional, nice, and very patient answering all our questions. Their support team is great too. We had to add some equipment during installation and the accounting was prompt and precise in terms of the final invoice. Good experience overall!

Great customer service, a great system, camera clarity is amazing. The best system on the market. I’ve had ADT and it doesn’t even compare. The service tech was pleasant, efficient and polite. He came on time and cleaned up behind himself.

Upon closing on our second home, our priority was to ensure its security. Smart Shield Systems had a rep come and explain their services. We understood what they offered and began shopping. Once we had everything we wanted, the customer service rep handled our order and gave us our installation day. Everything was on time and accurate. We didn’t have our internet set up initially and the installer had a great attitude about it and helped us reschedule. Once we completed everything, he explained the apps and how everything went. I would 10/10 recommend this service to everyone.

Their technician has done a fantastic job. Very polite, and professional. We love our new system. Thank you for all you have done and for explaining this system to us in a way we understood. We are thinking about adding two more cameras and a couple of sensors. Thanks again, guys.

The technician was wonderful! He was so patient, explained things in layman’s terms, and never made us feel rushed or as if we were inconveniencing him, as we kept changing our minds on sensors. We appreciate his kindness all the work that he did and his professionalism and we love the system. Thank you.

The worker that came to install the system was accurate, professional, and most of all detail-oriented. He not only was knowledgeable about the system, but he also took time to clean his area. He was not intrusive and was very prompt. His thorough explanation was appreciated. Please ensure that you pass on my gratitude.

I did not want to crawl around in my attic, running wires for my 4 camera security system, especially in 110 degree heat. These guys came in and did a marvelous job mounting all the cameras and running the lines. All the lines were inside the attic and walls. Cameras were aimed and re-aimed where I thought necessary. Highly recommended by me.

A few days ago we have upgraded 9 cctv cameras in our community center with Smart Shield System's team. The work was very neat and tidy, once everything was installed they took us through the system set up to make sure we knew how to work the system before leaving. The team were very professional, polite and helpful. The picture quality of the camera's is 1st class. Very satisfied with the end result.

I would like to commend two of your employees for their quick response and follow-through last Saturday night. On this night my condominium was forcibly entered and robbed, but due to the quick response of the alarm system, together with a quick response from the police … the thief was apprehended before he could even leave the building. It gives me a high measure of comfort knowing that my property is in good hands, whether I am away for a couple of hours or, as was the case this weekend, away for several days. Thanks again for all you do!

Your installers were tremendous! They were punctual and pleasant to work with. They were neat and respectful of your employees and mindful of the level of noise they would be making near offices and most importantly our dispatch center. You are indeed lucky to have them on your staff. This equipment should help keep our home safe and secure for many years to come!

I am called within 10 seconds of every false alarm I’ve tripped (sorry guys and thanks for your patience and humor!). Buying my first home as a single female I was, well, more than concerned about home security. I researched different options and the reviews kept leading me to Smart Shield Systems. You guys are the best.

No other company could even meet with us until the following week. Installation went great and the system is easy to use and understand. Now we have peace of mind!

The service from start to finish was on the ball. My quote was received very quickly, the installation was carried out within 7 days of me accepting the quote. The engineer arrived on time and fitted the alarm system promptly. Communication with everyone has been very quick. This is a pet hate of mine when it takes days/weeks for responses. Would highly recommend and have further work done with these guys.

Their engineer has done work for me in my house by installing an alarm system and due to how good he was I then had him install a secure door system in my salon! I can’t believe how neat and tidy the job he has done is! You can’t even tell there’s been any work done! Would 100% recommend, such a perfectionist and a really nice guy!

The tehnician updated our current cctv system professionally and expertly, when the original installation company said it couldn't be done and with a very friendly manner. He talked us through the update with instructions we could understand. Can't rate him highly enough. Very fair pricing considering he could have told us the whole system needed replacing. Very trustworthy.

I had smart shield install a full smart home security system (that I just LOVE) it helps me control my life. We also had them do mesh network and some CCTV cameras that are fantastic.I have to be honest here and say that I’m very impressed from the quality of workmanship and personal that showed up. They were super professional and polite, they treated our house as if it’s their own.The price was fantastic compared to the other 2 quotes we received.Overall 7 stars company!!!

I would highly recommend Smart Shield Systems for any type of home automation or surveillance system. They made the entire process both smooth and easy, which is the way it should be. The woman at the office Keren was the first point of contact, she scheduled an appointment for the consultation and quote. A man by the name of Ron came out to see us, a very nice person and extremely charismatic. He took his time explaining and designing a system that would suit our security needs. We then scheduled an appointment for the installation team who were nothing short of fantastic. They were very polite, accommodating and most importantly respectful of our home. I rarely write reviews, however, businesses like this restore your faith in the service industry. If all businesses operated at this degree of efficiency and professionalism, the world would be a better place. Thank you again for an exceptionally pleasant and trouble-free experience.

Excellent Service & Fair Prices!Seamless installation process from first contact to post completion. Great communication and will work tirelessly until you are completely satisfied. After our last alarm company went out of business it was time to update our alarm system and add a security camera system. After reaching Smart Shield on Yelp, Ron got back to me right away and set up an appointment to meet within a day or two. Ron was friendly and took careful notes on what I wanted in my home security system. Ron was able to email me a quote that day. Ron and Keren thoughtfully answered all of my questions about contracts and warranties.Installation of our system was completed much quicker than expected in about a day. Tony and Yud installed the alarm system with many window and glass break sensors, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, smart deadbolt locks, landscaping light automation etc. Yud, Caleb, and Steve installed 11 CCTV dome cameras one of which required a wireless bridge to run several hundred feet to a gate were installed seamlessly with no external conduit or ugly wires. I am very happy with my security system.

I got a new alarm system from a Smart Shield sales expert on Dec 6th. First, I must say the guy was super professional. He was really listening to my needs and he customized the system to accommodate them. Second, I received a welcome call two or three days after from the main office. They wanted to know if I am satisfied and if I had any further questions. I feel like they are very organized and therefore, I feel very secure! So far, I love my system and it is very easy to use. I highly recommend this company.

We had a terrific experience with this company! I had just recently moved into my new spot and was confused about the security equipment that was already integrated throughout the house and how that would complement with Smart Shield System's technology. Ron helped get me up to speed and was even able to get a technician to come out within three days since I was leaving on a business trip but had a friend coming to visit while I was gone.The technology itself is so futuristic yet easy to use. I am in New York right now but can check in on my house in San Diego. We could even set a temporary password for guests who may be visiting for a few days or for the delivery guy for Amazon (I literally buy everything in my life online). Ron was great to work with as well. Very patient, friendly, and accessible without overselling. We needed some time to think about it and talk it through and he gave us that space.Overall, a really positive experience and highly recommend!

I’ve used Smart Shield for my house and my business for both alarm systems and camera systems and I could not be more pleased & impressed from there top notch performance and approach. Everything went clear from the initial consultation to the final education on the system that just made me feel in good hand and in the past 5 month of me using the system I’ve always experienced phenomenal customer support and service.Thanks for everything and happy to know that there are still companies out there that perform that well and stand behind everything promised with all the nonsense of change orders upsell

We had Smart Shield set up the alarm & cameras in our office and it just works great , very convenient and each employee has its code to arm and disarm this way we know when the first employee comes in and last one to go out. Another great part that they were more than half the price of ADT for install & monitoring.
