Great company to work with. Very professional and responsive. Love the environment and the installers and salesmen are very knowledgeable, and the office ladies are great to work with!

Tried to use them as a new customer to help set up am audio system. Made an appointment, they called and pushed it back a day which is no big deal. They then called back the next day and canceled that appointment only to say that the next possible day would be two weeks away and that wasn't guaranteed. Would not recommend you even try to do business with this company if they can't keep to their appointments and promises.

Amazing experience! I called in a bit of a panic over something that was super simple. They responded so professionally. Somehow they fit me in the same day and Brian was a delight.

Had a doorbell camera installed by a company but it didn't work well and they said the transformer probably wasn't big enough. I tried a couple different things but could not find the transformer and a contractor suggested I call Technology by Design. Ryan came out today and did a great job. He had to look for the transformer (an electrician friend had come over and could not find it), located where it was hidden, found he did not have the right size, got another one, got it installed, and it is working fine now. He could not have been more polite, pleasant, and cleaned up after he was done. It was a great experience.

They are good people and they do know their stuff however their warranty comes at a high price. Systems costs 10's of thousands of dollars and there is always something needing attention. Instead of a good warranty and a long term maintenance program I got stuck with bill after bill after bill. I have faulty equipment getting covered by savant but tbd charges me hundreds to come replace the part.
Then something breaks as their fixing that and I'm paying for another service call. I'm happy with how everything got set up but what I'm not happy about is. 1. How long it took (over a year) 2. The warranty or lack there of. 3. The cost of the system 4. The cost of continuous service calls. 5. Training of the system. i would suggest writing the warranty and service contract before agreeing to buy equipment.

I had used technology By Design for security for many years. I recently moved to a new home, I made a rash decision and used another company for the new home. I have regretted it ever since. Technology By Design had always performed quickly and professionally with our security system. I wish I had stayed loyal to a company that did what they said they would do, and did it well. Tim Osborne, the salesman I deal with at Technology By Design does a superior job and it's true to his word!

Technology By Design handles all of my surveillance and security for my business; and their quality products and customer service definitely speak for themselves. I'm a very needy customer and my sales guy bends over backwards for me, which truly shows my importance as a customer to them. I would recommend their services to everyone.
