I've been a happy customer of Matson Alarm for over 10 years and very little need to contact them. So I was surprised to hear they are under new ownership as of last month and I see some changes that prompted me to call. Also I needed service on my system. The technician although very kind I didn't quite understand what he was doing. I can't even explain it.
Apparently my system is too old and something something I couldn't follow him but finally rescheduled due to parts he needed to order. He gave me a price and it willl only take 30 minutes. He arrives at our next visit and can't remember why he's at my home. Since he doesn't know why he's here he didn't pick up the parts he ordered to complete the job so he leaves and returns.
He tells me he's scheduled to be here 3 hours (What happened to 30 minutes)! Exactly 3 hrs he's done rushing out the door but the system is not connecting to my phone app and I can't confirm it's fixed but he's done and left! I get the invoice for this service and it's double the amount he quoted. I called the billing department and they adjusted the invoice. I hope this is not the new way of business with Matson.

With this crazy world environment we decide to upgrade our system - Matson was amazing Randy sales easy (non pressure) appointment in my timing, Jose the installer (who installed or system years ago) was AMAZING, so glad he was still there! He walked through all his install process, addressed some addition concerns with cameras and made recommendations, went over the system multiple times to insure I was aware of all the functions! Joe provide 5 star service he was Polite, tons of knowledge & beyond patient!

Daniel Artiaga came today and got me all in safe now with my alarm system. He worked very hard and asked me questions about how I wanted the window sensors mounted. Explained how everything will work. He knows how to make people feel comfortable! We don't get a lot of that now a days. Great Installer! I appreciate the job well done! Ms. Red

I have had Matson for about two years. I really never need them but recently they called because there was a signal that there was an issue. The company sent a wonderful, friendly service person, Kevin, to help and he determined that a battery was bad. I asked about replacing all batteries so I didn't have to worry about others going bad. Kevin offered to do all of the batteries right then but had to go buy more due to the number of batteries needed.
He spent all this time with us to take care of us (seemed like an hour or so as he had to go buy more batteries). The end result is that I would be charged only for the batteries but not for all his time. Matson, you and Kevin earned my continued respect and thanks.

I have matson for my home alarm. I have always had great customer service over the phone. One of the technicians that came to my house didnt do a great job but they took care of it. All large alarm companies have some good and bad technicians in my experience but the difference is in how they handle the problems. I appreciate that this is a locally owned familly business of over 40 years

I have had Matson Alarm installed at my office for many many years. Recently there have been several break-ins in my industrial park. So, a couple days ago technician (Kevin, I believe) came to do several repairs to old & broken contacts and did a once over on our system to ensure everything is in working order. He was very patient and didn't seem to mind sticking around to answer any questions and reminding me how to control the system. Matson Alarm installs and monitors out of Fresno, which makes their response times super speedy.

I moved into my current office space 3 years ago and called around to a number of alarm companies then decided on Matson b/c they were the best fit for service and pricing. I've not regretted it. I had a couple minor challenges (not Matson's issue) at the beginning, but I simply called and received very friendly and accommodating help over the phone. Now, I'm moving on to a bigger office, and I couldn't be happier with Matson -- I simply called to let them know of my new needs, they scheduled Michael Matson to come out just a couple business days after my call, he arrived to our mtg on time, he was prepared and quick as he had all paperwork with him.
He even brought paperwork for my office suitemate who'll need to set up her own account. Thorough, gracious service is all I've experienced w/ Matson. Never had a problem with our service/set-up tech. Never a prob with the technology.

Our installation was difficult because it occurred over 4 visits and during our move to our new house. While the original install did not meet our expectations, the sales consultant and the owner of the company responded quickly to our concerns. They sent Mark Butcher at the appointed time, and even had him come early so we did not have to wait. Mark completed the remaining installation items, patiently explained the keypad, and helped download the smart phone application Total Connect. We were very pleased with the system, and glad to be back with a locally owned, very responsive company.
