Drew

metroEV did a tremendous job planning and installing 20 EV charging stations at our hospital parking lot in Toronto. They were very supportive during our initial consultations and were very helpful with navigating government subsidy opportunities. The installation was completed promptly and professionally. We are very pleased with our experience with metroEV.

Zore

They have some of the best customer service I've encountered. The team is [amazing/friendly/helpful] and always goes the extra mile to assist. The charging station itself is reliable and works flawlessly. Overall, I'm very happy with Metro EV and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an EV charging solution.

Renee

Metro EV was on the ball, incredibly informative, quick to reply to emails, and easy to get a hold of by phone. Isaac and his team were such a pleasure to deal with, and always ready and willing to help even under pressure with tight deadlines. The EV installations went ahead as planned without a hitch, and they had us up and running immediately. We will definitely be using Metro EV in the future. Five stars! Highly recommend!

Tony

Fantastic experience selecting and installing the metroEV charging system in our Condo. The metroEV team are very knowledgeable and responsive, and were able to handle a wide range of enquiries with no problems at all. The quality of the installation was excellent and residents have stated they are very pleased with the results. We would not hesitate to choose them again now that we have seen the quality of their work and their excellent support for the products they use.

Cora

metroEV has provided outstanding commitment to our condominium's EV installation. Working with Shai Sinai and Isaac Klein has ensured that we have the right solution at the right time and we continue to experience excellent customer service. We definitely recommend them.

Ron Grant

metroEV just completed the installation of their system in our condo. Every single person from metroEV who was involved did a great job. Form initial sales (Adam), to the 3rd party electricians, to Isaac (PM) to Michael (data technician) were caring, professional and took the time to answer any of our questions. We have an older building and a very conservative board, but when Adam explained in simple and accurate terms how this would work we signed up. I would highly recommend metroEV to any condo considering EV chargers.

Jay K.

My wife and I just bought an EV and needed a charger installed at our home. Isaac and the MetroEV Team were incredibly professional and enjoyable to deal with. Their quotes and timing estimates were accurate and they walked us through the entire process seamlessly. I cannot recommend this company enough.... nice to work with honest trades for a change! Truly setting the standard in this industry. Thanks for all your help and a great experience.

Stephen B.

Our condo project was completed on time and on budget. Very professional job from start to finish. It was easy to set up my account and start using my charger from day one. There were issues with the original software provider but since that was changed to the metroEV software I have had no issues. Customer service is top notch. I highly recommend this company to any condo corporation considering adding an EV charging solution to their building.

Howie G.

Shai and his team did an amazing job for our condo corp by deploying 97 EV chargers in our underground parking garage. As you might imagine, a deployment of this size required an enourmous amount of planning and communications and required core drilling since our garage is on multiple levels. Our condo EV team met with 4 vendors and Metro EV impressed us from the start, Shai is extremely knowlegable, communicates well and provided in-person and Zoom presentations so our residents could make an informed descision. Metro EV was also able to assist with our applications to ZEVIP, where we qualified for a 50% government credit. Installation is clean and had little impact on owners during deployment. I would highly reccomend Metro EV for any of your EV charging needs.
