Very slow service and poor communication…read more The diagnostic process took far longer than expected, despite my repeatedly following up for updates. Communication throughout the process was poor, and I was rarely informed about the status of my laptop. In the end, I was simply told that the motherboard was damaged and the laptop could not be repaired. If I just wanted a second opinion that my laptop was broken, I could have gotten one much much faster and at no cost. The experience cost me both time and money, and I was left frustrated by the lack of timely updates and clear communication. I can't comment on the quality of their repair work since no repair was performed, but based on my experience, their communication and turnaround time need significant improvement.

If you can get here, this is THE only place to take your computer problems. In a world where too…read moremany businesses are prone to simply take your money and give you "whatever" service in return (like The Geeks?), Sam & Company stands out as a shining example of how things should be. How many businesses these days do you know of that actually combine integrity and skill to deliver what they say they will - and at a reasonable cost? If you read the About section on their website, it mentions personal relationships with customers. That's no sales pitch - it's true. I've only had sporadic computer issues over the years and, amazingly, every time I've spoken with him, it's like talking to a friend. He knows his customers! Couple that with the fact that Sam broke away from the corporate world to bring his skills directly to the public and he's definitely earned my loyalty.

I have nothing but good things to say about my experience here. I took my computer in for service…read moreas I had issues I could not overcome on my own. I found the basic price for service at $99 to be more than reasonable, though I was told that it would take about two weeks for my computer to be diagnosed. I paid the $75 expediting fee and given a timeframe of 2-3 days before diagnosis. I was then happy to get a call from them the next day with the diagnosis and plan of action. The day after that, my computer was ready for pickup, good as new. Overall, very happy with the experience.

Great store great service 100% fantastic people and great work!!!!!!!!!! Will definitely be backread more

I went to Best Buy initially (I don't know why, maybe I was feeling particularly stupid and…read morethick-headed at the time) and was told that to repair a broken LCD on a 400 dollar laptop would cost...300 dollars. Also, they would have to mail it in to the repair center. I asked why it was so expensive, and the guy said "well, LCDs are really expensive, so the part alone is 200 dollars". I was thinking, ok, who the fuck falls for this crap from a pasty dickwad like this guy? Who would ever think an LCD screen was more than 80 bucks on amazon or ebay? This is why Best Buy is going out of business. The employees that work there are shit. The products are generally shit (unless you firmly deny geek squad protection, warranty protection, repair plans, 5 year soul sucking plans, etc), and honestly they operate on the assumption that Americans are stupid. Yo, Best Buy, we have wikipedia and google, man. Stop being so 1999. Anyway, I called up Charm City Networks, and they said "yeah the part is like 60-80 bucks, but you can buy it online and bring it in and we just charge for labor". They charged 100 bucks for labor(fair enough) and so I went in to see if it was just the LCD that had a problem. They checked the computer, fixed it within a day, and I picked it up the next day after lunch. It was as easy and painless as possible, and affordable as hell. The guys that work there are very nice and helpful, and generally will go out of their way to make sure you have a great customer experience. Everything in that last paragraph is the exact opposite of Best Buy...which is why I recommend these guys for any computer/laptop hardware repair work.

So happy and grateful to have found Gadget Guru! Our DJI Mini 2 drone had a bad accident and…read moreneeded multiple repairs that we didn't feel confident enough to do ourselves. There was a consult/diagnosis fee, but they count this towards your final repair cost at the end, so it's free as long as you are getting your item fixed. Gadget Guru was able to fix our drone for less than the cost of having to buy a new one and we are so excited to have it back and running again :) There were unexpected delays in supplies of drone parts which we would have experienced ourselves as well (the times we live in). They reliably called with updates and thanked us for our patience. Great communication regarding what they found to be wrong and what they would be replacing to fix the problem, with time estimates as best they could :) I will definitely be a return customer with any other electronics in need of repair. Friendly, courteous service, with business hours late enough I can still reach them after work when needed. Completely recommend the Columbia Gadget Gurus :)

For the amount they charged me they left lots of damage behind and then used my spare propellers…read morethat I forgot to take out the box instead of ordering new ones and then didn't even bother to fix some of cracks and replace the back left propellers that was still cracked. So overall not good value. But I can say they atleast take the amount of time they say they will and give updates so good customer service. Final verdict good customer service lack luster overall job.

So, while researching best computer shops, I came across Onsite and discussed it with my husband. He recommended that we see what they can do, plus we live in Essex. We went there and discussed what problems I was having and he fixed it and brought it to my home personally; I thought that was very kind of him. The professionals were so warm and honest that I now only take my laptop to Onsite. I recommend everyone that have any computer problems take it there.

Eric and John are super nice. When my computer died, they responded immediately to my cries for…read morehelp. Unfortunately, John wasn't able to salvage any data from my hard drive while at my house, so he took the computer to his house to keep trying. I appreciated his efforts, but he had my computer a lot longer than I expected. That said, it was fried anyway, so I didn't really need it back. When we finally did connect, John returned my old computer and offered to spruce up Windows 8 on my new one (basically to make it work like Windows 7, which I prefer). It only took him a minute to do, but it made a big difference. All this to say that I highly recommend these guys. I'm hoping that my new computer doesn't have issues, but I'll call Eric and John if it does.
