Jon was the tech that came to my home to set up my MacBook Pro and ensure my transition from my PC laptop went smoothly. He was able to handle all my request within about an hour. He was efficient, knowledgeable and helpful. This was the first time I used Computer Geeks and I would definitely call on them in the future for my computer needs and would recommend them to others.
Description of Work: Setting up new MacBook Pro and transition from old PC laptop, including installing some programs.

This did not go well. They will dispatch someone to your home that cannot do the work and then expect you to pay after failing to perform the requested work (even though I clearly communicated the requirements of what must be done ahead of time) and when you try to express your dissatisfaction with this policy they will repeatedly put you off by not returning your call and then eventually (after about nine calls) ask you to stop calling. The billing department via Judian is very unprofessional.
Description of Work: Clone existing data and install memory card with more storage.

Response from COMPUTER GEEKS
We generally do not respond to this sort of feedback but in this instance it is warranted as a caution to other small businesses dealing with this individual. - We welcome all honest feedback and guarantee our work fully. - Mr. [Member Name Removed] has paid $0 and we do not consider him a client. - This is a tough time for all small businesses. The last thing any honest small business still trying to serve its clients during Covid-19 needs is people who call you out to their location, don't pay a thing, and then leave a bad review. - This gentleman purchased his own laptop hard drive for us to reinstall or image Windows as the size of his current drive was insufficient. This is a very common problem these days and we are very familiar with it. He was informed at the time of scheduling this appointment that imaging is not always possible, and that as we had not seen his system or the replacement drive we could not guarantee that everything was compatible or possible to do at all. We reiterated that we work on a time and materials basis, and the client stated that this was acceptable to him and he scheduled an appointment. - Our tech went to this gentleman's location and determined that the replacement was possible but given the hardware at the location the computer would need to go to the shop. Generally when things come in to the shop the billable time is zero to very small and the client was informed of this fact. Nevertheless Mr. [Member Name Removed] refused to allow us to dispatch the computer to the shop where we do have more tools available to completely tear down a laptop, swap an M.2 drive and then image or reinstall the system (drive condition permitting). - Our tech left after the client repeatedly refused to allow the work to proceed and became somewhat hostile. - We want no further contact with this individual.

First, it is good to understand that the technicians sent out are independent contractors, so there is some variability in what you get.It is good to be very clear about your specific needs and expectations (don't rely on your phone or email request), vet their knowledge and their communication abilities given your needs. We had experience with two technicians, one listen and followed our pace, the other was more focus explaining how complicated it was to move photos from a Mac to a PC, he did not check to make sure the promised data transferred had actually happened (hence the second service call). Although they advertized an Angie's List discount and a senior citizen discount, neither was offered. Let us be honest, while we are experienced computer users we are of the silver-haired set so talking in short-hand didn't always worked and we had to slow them down as they told of the challenges they faced. They were politie and arrived on time, but did little to explain their services or billing practices (e.g., they took our old PC computer with the hard drive, thus leaving us without a way to import data that had not been transferred). The office manager recognized the error and had the technician later rectify the error remotely, but we are dependent upon their word that the hard drive will be totally cleaned). The bottom line is three service calls and several messages to the Office to get data transfer between two computers.
Description of Work: transfer data (files and photos) from an old PC to a New PC and from an old Apple laptop to a new PC laptop

Thank you for your feedback. We do not use contractors, all of our staff are employed by the company. Not all techs work every day, but they are not contractors working independently. They work for us. Unless specifically requested to do so we do not remove any hardware from client premises, particularly hard drives, and if we do there is a form that must be signed. We do not and did not have your [Member Information Removed]. We are very clear that we work on a time & materials basis. This has always been how we work. The office and our in house technical staff have spoken to you on several occasions, but If there is anything we can do to make you happier within the bounds of how we work as a company please let us know.

The Tech (David Lim) was very prompt, pleasant and professional. He checked over our computer thoroughly, ran scans, checked for malware and made helpful recommendations, including noting that we were entitled to free anti-virus protection through Comcast (which virtually paid for the visit by itself). We may ultimately need to upgrade the computer, but for now it is running better and faster and I have confidence that the problems weren't the result of a virus or malware. Well worth it (especially with the $25 off Angies List coupon).
Description of Work: Check very slow running computer that freezes and crashes often.

Well. It turned out the contacts access problem was a Microsoft problem that others were experiencing and that is now fixed. The Administrator problem was easily fixed. The printer's life is beyond the usual, but I can live without full color reproduction in printing from the Internet.
Description of Work: I needed to be assigned Administrator to an inherited computer; acquire search access to my contacts; and get my printer to print all colors.

This problem began on Saturday evening. I called Computer Geeks on Sunday morning and they were able to arrange for a service call that afternoon. Mitch the technician, quickly identified the problem and fixed it. While he was here, he took care of several computer maintenance tasks including updating my security software. The whole experience from start to finish was excellent.

They sent a technician to my house and after talking to me for over a hour AFTER he discovered he could not retrieve the files, he took my thumb drives that I was using for back-up and installed the files from them.... something I could have done two days ago. I was charged for almost two hours @ 125.00p/h. All this for restoring some of my files from my own thumb drives which took all of five minutes. After this terrible fiasco I called their office to report the technician and was told that I could file a complaint. Their web site has no provision for this. Talk about working out of a garage. My advice with Computer Geeks: STAY AWAY!
