I have been an ATG client for over a decade. In all of my interactions I am treated as if I am their only customer and my issues are of paramount importance. The combined knowledge and professionalism of the staff at ATG is unparalleled. There is no one I would trust more with my network security.

It was a great pleasure to work with Luis and his team on our emerging IT challenges as we enter the government contracting space. Our primary concern was scalability, and they were incredibly creative in what they proposed. I'm honestly less fearful of what we're about to do because we have them on our side. Seriously.

Report
As a VOIP service provider, Alvarez is extremely frustrating to work with. They have lost their best technician and the techs that they have sent us is not knowledgeable. They take forever to correct a simple order and then end up not doing it correctly. And, of course, they charge by the hour so is this a scam or what? The customer is penalized for the incompetency of their employee? Doesn't sound fair to me.
As a service oriented company, they have failed miserably. The only time we have gotten any result is when we go straight to the President. Now, we find it is hard to trust their ability to do anything correct It is a horrible feeling when our customers call us and tell us our phones aren't working correctly. Hopefully, we can find a better provider!
