Faulty Equipment and Poor Company Response

The company has a terrible keypad. Our keypad repeatedly armed itself away, while we were home. Sometimes it even rearmed itself away after we had already armed it to stay. We called the company and they resent us a keypad. This one was faulty as well. They now want us to pay for the return of the replacement keypad and they still have not figured out what was wrong with the system. Why should we have to pay for something that is faulty? They should be covering the shipping and return process, especially since they have not solved the problem.

Not to mention the alarm system triggered once while we were away. No one broke in and when the police arrived there was no evidence that anyone had been at the house. When we checked to see what door had tripped, it was an internal door from the inside of our garage that was dead bolted shut. It was impossible for that door to have budged enough for the alarm to trip. But the company insisted it must have been the wind from a window blowing the door open (which we do not have any windows near the door in question). They refused to cover the police charge which was ridiculous as it was their system malfunctioning again. This happened another time with a different door, however we were able to cancel the police in time because we were close enough to home to check it out for ourselves. Other than these issues, the company is good. It would just be nice if they would stand behind their product and when there are faulty issues, cover the home owner's incurred cost.

Sorry to hear about your experiences with the system. I believe that out 3 year warranty proves that we do stand behind our product. If you are still experiencing any equipment issues please contact us and I'm sure we can work to resolve your issues.

Cheapest Made Product in the Market - Garbage equipment

The equipment used at this company is a disgrace. They also make people wait up to 3 months to receive product they have paid up front for. Mostly any cameras which are also garbage quality.

Rental Home

I rent. This is a package I can take with me when I move. It's wireless so it's approved by the owner. Our system has worked great so far and we're moving in a month. They're not charging any extra for the removal and install at the new location.

Being able to easily move the package in a DIY market was very important to us so we are pleased to hear you are taking advantage of this ability.

Good price, cheap camera and no cloud upload, alarm barely audible

Good: Price, sensor batteries last long
Bad: User interface is monochrome and not user friendly, cell app needs updating and you need a separate app for camera (why two apps - who knows), alarm is barely audible when it goes off unless you buy extra speaker for $100, camera is a 0 out of 10 - it remotely connects about 20% of the time if not at home - it does not upload to cloud simply stores pics and videos on SD card so if that is removed from the camera there is no evidence, camera is so sensitive it goes off non stop if there is wind, just overall horrible camera.
Overall: Decent system, but interface, camera and ineffective sound from a triggered alarm

Thank you for the feedback. I'm not sure which app you are using but please look at upgrading to the latest version - Think Protection+ as it has many features not available in the first version.
Sorry to hear you are not satisfied with the camera but we've taken your feedback along with others and are in the process of releasing new cameras with cloud capabilities.

Alarm system

Purchased think protection in September 2018. Actually had a home break in since then and think protection was very efficient and helpful. Whenever I call for anything, the wait time is not long and customer service is very good. They now updated their app so that a plus. One complaint is that every time you order another sensor or any additional equipment, you have to pay the shipping fee every time. would be nice if it was only charged the first time and all additional purchases had the shipping fee waived.

Home Security

We installed a Think Protection security system recently. We are very pleased with the professional help we have received via telephone and online. It appears to be a great system and certainly value for the price.
