InstallerNet to Offer Connected Lifestyle Services

Las Vegas, NV, Jan. 5, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- InstallerNet, a Boston-based company that coordinates installation of consumer and commercial electronics products through the largest network of independently owned mobile and home electronics installers in the United States, announced today a new relationship with U.S. Cellular . InstallerNet will provide installation services to customers of U.S. Cellular upon referral, for its recently launched OnLook Digital System , a customizable home security and automation system available in Iowa and the Tulsa markets. As part of the comprehensive Connected Lifestyle Services, InstallerNet will also assist the do-it-yourself customers with over the phone support to ensure the proper installation and functionality of the system. InstallerNet will demonstrate their new Connected Lifestyle Services, at the 2015 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, in the North Hall booth 2102, from January 6th through the 9th.

OnLook Digital System is a self-installed home security and automation system that can be managed via a smartphone, tablet or computer. Customers also receive real-time notifications through their mobile phone to know what's happening, the moment it happens. In addition to these starter kits, U.S. Cellular is offering several security and automation accessories and add-on packages that allow customers to customize the solution to best fit their specific needs.

While the OnLook system is designed and sold as a self-installed system, U.S. Cellular recognizes that some customers may still desire assistance with installation. This new relationship provides U.S. Cellular's OnLook customers looking for professional assistance with access to installation support, through InstallerNet's nationwide network of certified installers specifically trained on the installation of OnLook Digital System products. Customers may install the OnLook system themselves, schedule their appointment online or call InstallerNet directly to hire them for installation services for an additional fee. InstallerNet customer service representatives will then select a fully-trained and licensed local installer from its network, and coordinate the entire service experience.

"Offering the InstallerNet referral to our customers looking to bring the OnLook Digital System into their homes is another example of how we're focused on simplifying their lives through technology," said Joe Settimi, Vice President of Marketing, for U.S. Cellular.

"InstallerNet is extremely excited to work with US Cellular, and provide through our Connected Lifestyle Services a comprehensive solution to assist both the DIY and DIFM customer segments with set-up and installation of their OnLook products", said Bill Ali, SVP - Sales and Marketing for InstallerNet.
