Computer had been purchased a few months earlier from Best Buy's Albany Crossgates store. Computer at first functioned perfectly but soon became erratic and crashed routinely after booting up. We took it to Best Buy's Geek Squad desk, where we were told the problem required a fairly complex software fix and that the price of the fix would be $300. Dissatisfied with this diagnosis and the cost of proposed treatment, we took the still-new machine -- on the recommendation of a friend -- to Solutions by Design (SBD) in Delmar. SBD told us they suspected a malware problem and would take on the job. A couple of days later they called to let us know the computer had been repaired and was again in fully functioning condition. Total price: $37. The machine has been working perfectly since SBD's repair. We could not be more pleased with the service and the professionalism with which it was carried out. We have no intention of returning to the Geek Squad for service or advice of any kind.
Description of Work: Restored new but nonfunctioning HP computer to full function. Did a total, permanent fix at a very modest price.

Fantastic. I was frantic when the hard drive stopped working as I use the computer for a part-time business. So I joined and searched Angie's List. When I saw the Solutions By Design listing I remembered that I had used the business years ago for a laptop problem. I now have the computer back save and sound. They are very professional to work with. I could not have been happier with the service.
Description of Work: Solutions By Design repaired my computer after the hard drive stopped working. They were very professional from the front desk to the computer techs. They kept me informed of all progress, stayed on budget and contacted me with questions. I was thrilled to get my equipment back with data recovered and my programs reinstalled on my computer.

Solutions By Design (SBD) consulted with the agency regarding networking needs and designed a package to meet them. The changeover from the old network went smoothly without any loss of important data or records, and there was very little "down time" affecting the agency's business and operations.
Description of Work: Configured and installed a computer network including upgraded server with backup, upgraded network software, cable, and post-installation follow up and tech support.
