Blech! This company is terrible. Consistently late for appointments, and they leave with half the job done.
Description of Work: We have a monthly contract, and I'm so sorry we do.

Response from It Needs Help
This is the owner of ITNEEDSHELP, I was going over some older past reviews and noticed your "F" review and it concerned me. I checked your invoice and the total was $100 vs the $200 you listed. I wanted to make sure since most of our repairs are usually $100 or less. I also wanted to make sure there was nothing done incorrectly. I am sorry about you having to lose your settings but many times a virus removal requires complete reinstallation. If this was not properly communicated to you then that was our fault but I know we discuss each system clean with the client before we move forward, especially when it will require a new install of the OS. We genuinely care about each of our clients so I would be more than happy to talk to you at anytime if you would like. I would value your feedback.

I brought in my computer approximately on August 31. They brought me in to order a new hard drive on September 1, seeing as how I needed a new one. When I brought the computer in on August 31, they told me it would take 24 to 48 hours before I had my computer back. I kept in touch with them via phone. Every day there was something new they had to do. They did a good job fixing the computer, but it took until September 7 until I got it back. That's a week. Not two days.
Description of Work: I brought my computer in for service. The hard drive was replaced and the data was backed up. The hard drive turned out to have a Trojan virus in it.

It went well. I showed them to my computer, let them know what needed to be done, and they got to work.
Description of Work: They set up my wireless printer, streamlined some applications, and provided suggestions on how to get more out of my (older) computer for the immediate time being. Not being overly familiar with computers, they didn't speak "down" to me, but explained in a way that I'd understand. They were prompt, professional, and provided me with free cost saving ideas. I appreciated their time, effort and experience.

They were okay. They got the computer working for a minimal price. That's all one would want. They did what they said they would do. I would probably use them again if I need my computer fixed.
Description of Work: Techknowbutler repaired my computer in August.
