Epic has been a responsive partner with our Elan system and AV in general for the last 7 years. Whenever we have a problem they respond quickly, diagnose the problem and resolve it. Highly recommend their services.

They are my heroes of the day! They figured out my Internet and tv problem. I work from home so this was so important. They went above and beyond cleaning up my network and helping me solve my multiple challenges. They were quick you! And super friendly and nice guys! Highly recommend!!

UPDATED REVIEW: As of July 1, 2021 the system continues to not work every time we arrive at our home. The Epic Team will address the issue each time it arises, which we appreciate, but we believe it is fair for us to expect a system that doesnt require maintenance before every single use. We will be elated to remove this review once we have a consistently reliable system that does not require constant maintenance and attention. The Elan Smart system installed by Epic Smart Homes is a sub par system, compared to all the affordable, workable systems on the market today. I would avoid this system
