I had a disk crash on my PC. They confirmed that the data was not salvageable from the disk (unlessgoing to a different firm at a much higher price who *might* be able to save some data). They were able to restore the data from my backup drive, and replace the failed disk with a solid-state drive. Throughout, they were responsive, quick to help, informative, and had me back up quickly.

They were very nice. My computer acts ups and I asked them about getting a new one. They can build a computer for you but they price was too high and I didn't build it. One thing I look for is friendliness and they were very nice. Especially, the tech guy. I got into a conversation with him and it was very interesting. If I needed to get a computer repair I would call them. He was on vacation and he made it a point to get back with me quickly.

Dear [Member Name Removed], I believe we only gave you a quote for a new computer. No work was done to review. Am I correct? Thank you, Elysa

They are great. They returned my call on Saturday afternoon and helped me fix an issue. They are always responsive and friendly and really go above what we call them for.

Not well. I used this company in the past and recommended to everyone I knew. This time, I called in the a.m. to make sure they could check out my computer that day because I was leaving on a business trip the next a.m. They said to bring it right in, which I did. I didn't get a call until about 4:30 that afternoon from their technician saying it was taken apart and would not be ready, also informed me it was overheating and needed to be repaired. I needed it that night, so he pieced it together, charged me for the tune-up and told me to bring it back to finish up when I returned. I did. He charged me $99 again because it was a separate service call for the tune-up which I didn't think was fair. He also did not fix the over-heating problem because he said I declined it, which was not true. He was also extremely unfriendly, not good brand stewardship. Especially for a company named Friendly. Owner of the company was gracious and did agree to have me come back in and have it taken care of, but I honestly don't trust that technician with my laptop. I was charged twice for one tune-up and the other issue was not considered because the technician was just so awkward. I hope they can clean that up because I used to love this little mom and pop shop.

[member name removed], I'm sorry about the misunderstandings you had with Jason, it sometimes takes a little extra effort to communicate with people that are a little "awkward" as you said. We tried to reach out to you and offered to work out any problems at no additional charge, but you posted this review instead. We aren't always 100% perfect but we always work with our customers if there are any problems in a positive way. By writing a review like this without first talking with us you only hurt our business.

We apologize if there was any miscommunication with this issue. We always answer the phone during business hours and return phone calls and have no idea why this customer feels we were unresponsive. In this case, the computer came in to the shop with a broken VGA (monitor) port. We determined that the computer needed a replacement motherboard, received approval to proceed with the work, and ordered a new part. A different family member than the one that brought us the computer later called and wanted to cancel the job. We would have had to charge shipping and a restocking fee in order to return the part, so the customer opted to keep the part but not do the repair. We charged only for the part and not for any of our work. We did not do any work on the hard drive. Please contact us if there is anything we can do to resolve any remaining issues.

He was not only professional and supportive, but very patient. Having very little knowledge or experience with web site development/data input, I was definitely in need of clear, basic, step-by-step instruction--and Igor Was responsive, patient and very helpful in this regard.|The company was new when I contacted them and retained their services. I found out about them from a feature article in a local newspaper, on this new family owned computer businesses in the area, and decided to try them out. I will call them again in the future, for additional programming services, and recommend them without hesitation, to anyone in need of business website development or other programming services, or personal computer support services.

As I recall, they solved the problem but I don't remember what prompted me to call them other than limited past experience. Hourly price one hundred dollars seems hlgh but probably typical for on site computer service. I no longer have the paper work associated with Friendly Computer as I work much more with a computer company for software and hardware issues.

I was having trouble with a mini computer and they were able to quickly diagnose and fix the problem. Just like their name, they were friendly. Since they are a community, local based business, I feel better about going to them over a big impersonal chain.
