He had a hard time getting things to connect and finished , had to call back next day because camera offline and had to send a repairman out to try and get it back on, well that took some time and he fixed the problem, however I noticed the motion detector is not functioning correctly. I’m not sure what’s going on with Vivint

The good,bad,full experience
It was a good experience but there were a few things that I didn't like. The salesman is very aggressive, and I'm sure he is taught to be. The way he slides in that he wants to do a credit check like it's nothing,after we just made a large purchase wasnt to my liking either. Now the main issue was the tech. He needs to slow down! He also was quite musty,and I'm being nice about it. He knows his work but he moves wayy to fast around a strangers house. The system has worked great soo far.
