I never write reviews, but I had to come out of hibernation to share my experience with California Security Pro. It was exceptional.
We were traumatized after a break-in and decided that it was time to get serious about security
The installation was scheduled within one business day and was also a great experience.
We feel so much safer in our home. The Bay Area sadly has the highest property theft rate in the country. I wouldn't look at any other dealer.

Since 1996, editions of Crime in the United States have been available on the FBI’s Web site, www.fbi.gov. First released in Portable Document Format (PDF) files, more recent editions have been published in Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) files. The FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program staff are committed to improving their annual publications so that the data they collect can better meet the needs of law enforcement, criminologists, sociologists, legislators, municipal planners, the media, and other students of criminal justice who use the statistics for varied administrative, research, and planning purposes. For more information about how the UCR Program collects data, see About the Uniform Crime Reporting Program.
Crime in the United States, 2012, presents data tables containing information on the topics listed below. Data users can download Microsoft Excel spreadsheets of the data tables and Adobe PDFs of most of the text shown.
Offenses Known to Law Enforcement—Includes information about violent crime offenses (murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault) and property crime offenses (burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson).
Expanded offense data—Provides additional data that the program collects on the eight offenses. Depending on the offense, these details may include the type of weapon and the type and value of items stolen. For the offense of murder, expanded homicide data include information about murder victims, offenders, and circumstances that are collected as supplemental homicide data.
Clearances—Furnishes information about crimes “solved” either by arrest or exceptional means.
Persons Arrested—Provides the number of arrests made by law enforcement and the age, gender, and race of arrestees for the 28 offenses (see Offense Definitions) for which the UCR Program publishes arrest data.
Police Employee Data—Supplies information regarding sworn officers and civilian law enforcement personnel.

My husband and I approached Kyle Madison at the Home & Garden show at the Alameda County Fairgrounds last month. He was friendly, informative and very helpful in answering all our questions. We were already thinking of purchasing a home security system and Kyle made our decision to buy the ADT system easy. We received all the equipment (Cameras, sensors, motion detectors) and installation at an unbelievable price. The installer, Micah, communicated with us prior to installation and was awesome in explaining the entire system. Before he left, Micah made sure we knew how to use the system and had our phone app and computer set up. I highly recommend folks give Kyle a call and have your system installed.

I had the pleasure of working with Tim Christensen to get my home secure after my move. I had in hand a lot of confusing flyers as i expect everybody to get once they move to the new house. I am glad i decided to go with my realtors referral on this and Tim made rest of the process seamless and effortless. He was prompt in explaining the deal [yes i did get a really great deal !!] and set it up for me in no time. The technician Larry was very knowledgeable and was prompt in setting up my sensors and panel and getting the app running and walking me through the entire process. Even though i had a previous 2 years with ADT, this time i felt i was cared for and they both were working to improve my user experience rather than just getting me as a number in their system. I am happy to recommend their services to anybody looking for a home security system. - Rajesh P.,Fremont, CA
My husband and I are very happy with the entire experience. We were contacted by Jessica about purchasing a security system. She came to our home and assessed our needs in a very professional manner. She was able to arrange the installation on a date and time that were convenient for us. Hector did the actual installation and also did a very professional job. He took his time during the installation so that his work was of a high standard. He thoroughly explained the best way to work the pulse system. Jessica followed up during the installation and a few days later answered some additional questions for us so we really appreciate the way she treats her customers - Melinda M.,Fremont, CA
Got a couple estimates and California Security Pro with DSC systems have the best overall balance solution with no sales pressure. The sale/rep guys and their manager from San Jose / San Ramon are friendly and always follow up on every questions on time. No hackling on final discount with upgraded bigger system pricing. Overall system installed price were well worth the amazing ADT pulse alarm security, camera, Z Wave home automation, cellular/battery backup, and the ADT cloud application from any devices. The installed guy name Carl were very knowledgable, answered/recommended all the proper installation options with best effective locations, careful about people's home, and work really hard on the job all day long (doesn't want to take lunch break). Better if the bigger installation job done right rather than fast.
Top ADT monthly price plan with all the options is a bit pricey. Should provide some more incentive for multi-years contract like 3 years or even 4 years. Like extra 6%-8% monthly discount for 3 years and 10% for 4 years. This is how you can keep and reward loyal subscription base customers.
Highly recommended to all my friends and colleagues ... Regards, - Kevin Fremont, CA

ADT is the way to go! If you ever contemplated having security service look no further. We received the best customer service. The rep wasn't in a rush and took the time to explain all questions no matter how small. Thanks ADT! - Tgia C. Fremont, Ca

I am extremely pleased with the service I have received from Ca security. They have taken care of all of my needs. I have never had a security company so attentive and good with customer service. Jessie my installer was awesome. He didn't interrupt our day at all. You almost forgot he was there. He worked quietly and efficiently. I am very happy and glad I got the system. - Marina A., Fremont, CA
Our installation went perfectly and Micah had a wonderful demeanor, very professional and happy at the same time which was really nice. Paul Piper was also very kind and took his time to run through the system with us. Overall a great experience with you guys!

By far, it was the best experience with an alarm company we've ever had. It's pretty rare to have good customer service end-to-end from a business. I called the 800 number, and Marissa answered in a pleasant tone, quickly scheduling an appointment the next day.
Jarrett, from sales, came over to inspect our home and explained the ADT system to us at a fair, reasonable price. Jarrett is gracious and courteous as a professional, even showing up early for our appointment to beat traffic, which was a surprise. You don't see that very often.
Jesse, our technician, worked tirelessly to upgrade our alarm system with a reassuring attitude. He is very knowledgeable and patient, thoroughly answering a lot of questions we had about our system. I thought he did outstanding work, making use of our existing system, which was pretty old, to work with our newer system.
California Security Pro definitely deserves FIVE STARS on yelp! Thanks to Marissa, Jarrett, and Jesse for making the process so easy. It's the gold standard that alarm companies need to strive for. - Jason G., Fremont, CA
