Consulted with Robert on my 9 year old Acer laptop that was running very slow. He examined within 24 hours of drop off, and expressed concerns with both software and hardware, concluding attempt at repair highly questionable, with high risk of near term failure(s). I concluded money better spent on transferring data to new laptop. With guidance from Consumer Reports (December, 2018) and White Wolf, I concluded that an i7 processor, 8GB RAM, and SSD (solid state drive) was best for my use and was open to Dell, Lenovo or HP brands. I decided against a touchscreen given disadvantages of reduced battery life and increased cost of repairs. I found Dell and HPs that met my specs in the $620-650 range on sale this week at Staples, and chose and delivered to WW an HP Pavilion with 15" screen. In a few days they transferred all data, provided and installed Microsoft Office, and installed their own security program and service ($50 per year). I have purchased three laptops and this was, by far, the best experience and service. All my questions were answered by Robert and Kelsey and I have great confidence in their expertise and professionalism. I found their prices roughly comparable to competitors with the difference being WW's responsiveness and knowledgeable service which was notably superior to that I have experienced with three other local computer service providers. Total costs: $195 for assessment and transfer of all data and installation of programs; $150 for Microsoft Office and $50 for virus protection (annual cost) or ~$395. The whole process went smoother and quicker than expected-- in ~ 4 days I was back in business. Thanks Robert and Kelsey!!

It went great. Robert knew exactly how to approach the problems and explain them in layman's terms. He also told me about Dropbox and set that up so I can back up my photos.

Had to replace the old computer and they managed to get many of the old files back. Had them pick up the old computer and deliver the new one to the house and that made things a lot easier for us.

I emailed Rob on a Friday night, never thinking he would get back to me until Monday. First thing Saturday morning, Rob called and we discussed my problem. I brought in my desk top, lap top, and printer on Monday. Zhen worked on them and I had everything completed by 3:00 that day. Although everything worked fine at the shop (Zhen went over everything to make sure everything worked before I left the shop) when I got home I had a problem with the printer connecting to my network and could not print from my lap top. I called Rob and he called me back immediately. First thing next morning, Bill called and remotely fixed the problem from their shop. I cannot recommend White Wolf enough. This business in totally professional. The shop is clean and Kathy who works at the front desk is friendly and professional. They log in every piece of equipment that you bring in, including cables and cords. Their price was extremely reasonable. I would definitely recommend White Wolf for any computer work that you need done. I know I will certainly use them from now on.
Description of Work: Another "professional" who installed Windows 10 for me on my desk top totally messed up my ability to scan and print wirelessly on my printer. They blew me off when I brought this to their attention, and made it obvious that they were not going to take responsibility. I contacted Rob at White Wolf, based upon Angie's List recommendations, to fix my printing and scanning issues.

It went extremely well. The owner of the company, Robert Remillard, is fantastic, personable and provided us with answers to our questions that we could understand.
Description of Work: Our office server's power supply stopped working which meant our entire office stopped working until White Wolf came and assisted us. They were able to get our server up and running, by pulling out the hard drive and temporarily storing it in another computer. They came the same day called and have come by for some followup work as well.

My desktop pc would no longer enter "sleep mode". I leave my pc on at night and I schedule to enter "sleep" mode so as to properly power down and save electricity. It stopped working one day. I am somewhat computer savvy and did a lot of research on what could be the issue and tried many different suggestions. Nothing seemed to work and I knew this was a difficult issue. I brought it into White Wolf based on the "glowing" reviews from Angies List. I was not disappointed. The owner, Rob, and technician, Jason, were fantastic to work with. Rob and I chatted though email on and off about the item. Jason tried numerous things to diagnose, thanks to his persistence, he found the issue and solved it. Rob charged my for about two hours worth of work for 80 dollars. That is an extremely reasonable bill rate for a complex issue to be solved. Their work is guaranteed for thirty days, they sent me support links to review in case the "sleep" issue ever happens again, so I can attempt to resolve myself. I have been looking for a highly skilled and a reasonable priced computer repair shop and I found one! Rob even went as far to offer picking up my pc (we both live in Clifton Park), and taking it to the shop personally should I ever have an issue and need their services again. Outstanding guys. Thanks. Scott Francis

It went well. The provider began analyzing my laptop almost immediately. By the next morning, they called with the results of their investigation and the cost of repairing it. It wasn't long after that I received a call to say my laptop was ready to be picked up. I was very pleased with the service and how quickly they turned this repair around.
Description of Work: My computer had been problematic for a very long time. They were able to fix all the problems and my laptop is operating properly finally. They not only cleaned it up but provided several programs for protection.

He never did track down the issue, and in the end got the computer running with just one of the two video cards that were originally in the machine. I don't think that he is familiar with gaming computers. Perhaps if you have a simple problem like installing a new operating system WW computing will be fine, but I do not think the technicians are up to complex problems.
Description of Work: I took a computer to WW Computing to have them track down a glitch in the video cards. The repair took several days longer than quoted, and in the end never was fixed.

I was a bit surprised to now see this review. The computer left my shop nearly 2 years ago (July 3, 2012, not Oct 10, 2012), so a lot of time has elapsed since the work was done. Fortunately, I was able to review the invoice provided to the client, as well as notes made to the ticket assigned to his computer during the repair process. According to both of those sources, I disagree with several statements in the review - the date the repair was completed, the amount billed for the repair, and finally, the statement we didn't clearly identify the cause of the issue. The invoice (#4450) states the cost of the repair to be $50, not $300, as is listed in the review. I have the client's canceled $50 check (# 131) used to pay this invoice in my records. According to the invoice, which again, was provided to the client, the issue is clearly identified as a bad port on the motherboard. There were 2 video cards in the computer, and the port one of them plugged into on the motherboard was defective. Once the issue was tracked down, due to spatial limitations within the computer, both cards couldn't be plugged in. We presented the option of getting a new motherboard, which would allow him to utilize both cards, but the client said he would try it with a single card, and contact us if he wanted to get a new motherboard. We did a follow up with the client, and never was it mentioned directly to me, nor any member of my staff, that the problem wasn't solved to his satisfaction. I don't feel it's fair to write a negative review 2 years after the fact without first giving me (at least) the courtesy of knowing he had a negative opinion of the repair, and a chance to work with him to make it right. Maybe it's possible he brought it to another shop after I looked at it, and has me confused with them?

Like many people who depend on computers, I know very little about their operation. Robert and Jason could have told me the video card was bad and charged me a lot more and I wouldn't have been the wiser. Instead they did an honest appraisal of the situation and did only what was necessary to get me back in business. I am very happy with the service at White Wolf Computers and recommend them highly.
Description of Work: My display was cutting out several times a day. I called Robert and explained the problem. He suggested it might be a video card problem. He did some research (I have an older machine) and located a video card that would work. I needed fast service so I asked if I could bring it in. Robert and Jason looked the thing over and ran overnight diagnostic tests and concluded that the video card was fine but a software upgrade might be useful. They installed the upgrade and I came back the next morning to pick up the machine. Works perfectly.

I agreed to pursue retrieval of information and purchase of the external hard drive. It was offered that I could purchase my own hard drive, but I purchased via White Wolf to make the process go faster (and the price was just as good, if not better than anything I would have found on my own.) After 1-2 weeks (I was out of town at the time the job was completed - they were very fast!) I picked up the external hard drive. They offered to recycle my computer tower at no charge. I would absolutely use this company again. I am definitely NOT tech savvy and they made it so easy for me! They were extremely professional, courteous and helpful!
Description of Work: My computer died, and it has tons of family photos on it. I was scared I had lost all of the photos, and decided to try to call someone to help me retrieve the information. White Wolf was available to help, and I found them because of their great reviews on Angie's List. They had me drop off the computer tower, and within a couple of hours they informed me that I would need an external hard drive to place my information on (they would be able to retrieve it...)

First, company has relocated to Delmar, NY, no longer at Central Av., Albany. Staff were very clear on what would be done and how long it would take. Repairs were completed in a timely fashion and the work that was done was explained in detail. The cost of the repairs matched the estimate. A couple of days later I had some questions pertaining to restoring software and data which were answered on the phone.

He recommended a Dell, since that's what he uses, and searched the internet for me to find if anyone sells the Direct TV NFL Sunday Ticket. He found it, purchased it for me, installed it and boom! it was there. He also answered many questions for us, worked tirelessly, until late, and we were satisfied. We can now transfer as many photos that we want, to a flash drive, and view them as a slideshow. Never thought I would like a slideshow. His services are not cheap, but you know the old saying: you get what you pay for. Plus we had him come to out house, and do all the work. He installed the new computer, took the old one away, plus the old printer. Now I don't have to wait in line, once a year to drop off the old computer and printer to Taft Furniture parking lot. I value service, and am willing to pay for it, as long as it is exactly what I want. My wife is also happy, because she can now access her e-mails from her smart phone. She could not do that before. He has answered many questions that neither AT&T, nor their technical people HTC, nor Time Warner can answer. It was frustrating to stay on the phone for hours with these people, and they did not know what they were doing. But Robert does.
Description of Work: Robert, the owner came to our house to retrieve files lost in our e-mails. Time warner could not find them, but Robert found them in 10 minutes. Since our computer was more than seven years old, he recommended that we purchase a new computer, and printer, since our printer was more than seven years old, and not compatible with the new computer.

As I was in the middle of transferring some important videos to an external hard drive, my laptop harddrive crashed. They were able to recover my files, pictures and videos, transferring the requested info to the external hard drive and installed a new hard drive in my laptop. The were very patient with me since i am "technically challenged"....they even called me after i brought my laptop home to make sure i was happy with everything and to see if i had any questions.

I had to send my Toshiba laptop back to Toshiba for repairs, and they recommended that I have the files backed up beforehand. I took the laptop to White Wolf on Central Avenue, and gave them a thumb drive to store my files on. When they were ready, we picked up the computer and the thumb drive. After the computer was repaired by Toshiba, the files went back onto it easily. The people were friendly, smart, and professional. The store was a little hard to locate, because you have to enter a health food store, then go to a door towards the back that opened into a hallway where White Wolf's office was located. There's also a gymnasium back there, farther back. It's a little odd, but the service was good and the people were nice. I'd use them again!
