Poor response and much more costly than we were led to believe. As a building owner we were caught with a need to correct a problem with an alarm that the original company would not service (or could not because of some license problem). We thought we corrected it, but the new company we hired did not have an in city Denver license. Mtn. Alarm fiddled around, repeated the same procedure we had just done and paid for and then charged a gigantic connect fee. Until I contacted an owner, the salesman only returned calls when he felt like it. Eventually they did get the alarm onto their system and then followed up with a huge bill for doing that. Then a month later they charged a huge fee again for a yearly checkup, even though they should have checked it up while hooking it up. Very u;nhappy, but had no choice as the fire dept. had filed a ticket in my name.

Once they got here, they did good My initial interaction with Mountain Alarm was very positive. Sales person responded to my initial request within a day. Since then, I have had to follow up a few times to get work scheduled. When they arrive, they do good work and I believe I will get good service in the future. I have had trouble knowing who to contact for what and am still waiting on a couple of responses to inquiries/requests. I have been told the last couple of months have been extraordinarily busy for the company. I can understand that, but not why I do not get responses to emails and calls.

Problems arise, it's how they're handled. The previous company who installed a system for us came out and installed the system, for the most part, then didn't show us how to use it, but instead, handed us a DVD to watch and rushed off. They gave us some sort of remote device to use for the boat but didn't tell us how to use it. Our rep made sure everything was done to our satisfaction and that before she left we had been instructed on how to use the system. We recently encountered a problem, with the main panel falling off the wall. Upon calling, a technician showed up the next day and did a temporary fix saying he would order a new panel and would be out to install it as soon as it came in. The system is very easy to use. Fortunately, I cannot speak as to how responsive the company is in the event of an emergency.

Still have not completed job and equipment not working correctly. I met with sales representative and set up what I wanted. The installer came and didn't know how everything was supposed to be set up. Installer did some weird things and placed some items where it did not make sense. Garage door equipment did not work. One of the locks does not work correctly. They charged me too much after not installing some of the items. I have attempted to get the sales representative to come out to the house so I can go over everything with them (and asked for additional items to be installed). The sales representative still has not come out. The motion sensor will go off because of the dog when they told me it wouldn't. I expected more from the company after spending so much money.

Average Service person had to read from a manual the entire time he was at the residence. It took longer than it should have to resolve the issue and then the bill was unrealistic and not explained.
