This review is long past due but just got a holiday special postcard from Coast Computer and…read morereminded me I had to post. Needed an emergency recovery of my old computer over the summer with full Covid restrictions. I had pushed it past the point I should have until it was dead. Coast picked up my computer from my home and had it thoroughly evaluated and backed up on thumb drive and delivered back within 2 days. Extracted files and data I had not considered important but found I needed. Coast really took care of me and went the extra mile backing up files a had not considered. Priceless to me. This must come from much experience and a true concern and desire to provide an excellent product at a very reasonable price. Thank you Coast!

Tom downloaded all my info first, then cleaned up my computer in a couple of days. Everything was the same as before and in the same place with no changes. All my pix, my huge ancestry and comic book programs, emails and saved reports from the past decade, were all perfect. The guy is Good. I highly recommend.

My Dell Inspiron laptop wasn't charging this morning, when I was at a local coffee shop with my…read morepower packs and neither of them were charging my laptop. I went on Yelp and looked for a tech support resource. I called Orange Coast and was given some helpful and free steps to see if that would work. I went home and plugged my laptop into the wall outlet and then realized it may be the power cord that was the issue. I have one at home and one in my backpack. Anyway, I appreciated the free advice and not having any pressure to bring it in for a fee. I will keep this number handy for future tech needs.

I called Steve and told him My computer wasn't working, I encountered the wonderful blue screen of…read moredeath. So he told me to bring it to him and we discussed all options and the best route to take. He kept it overnight and was very reasonably priced. He was very knowledgeable and professional. We decided to back up my hard drive to make sure I could get to all of my files. Which was the most Important thing to me. I have deadlines I m working on. He saved me by getting to it so fast. Thank you Steve. Side note, he does work from his home if you are wondering about location.

Wasted my time unfortunately…read more Gus came out on 3/31/21 to give me a quote on an email migration and he was pleasant and professional. He told me he was willing and ready to take on my project and that it would be 6-8 hours of work. I thought that was a little high to move 2 email addresses and wanted to get other quotes so I let him know on 4/1 that I would be back in touch shortly. I didn't end up having the time to interview other techs so 5 days later on April 6th, I texted Gus to let him know that I wanted to proceed with him. I knew he had amazing reviews and came to the conclusion that even if the price was a little high it would be worth it to know I was getting someone knowledgeable and available. And time was of the essence so I needed to move forward. Gus never responded to my text. Yesterday, (13 days after receiving no response) I followed up and Gus' reply to me was "Hi, sorry swapped at the moment". I presume he meant swamped and that he is now not available? I honestly feel that Gus was offended that I questioned his pricing/time necessary to move 2 email addresses from hostgator to Office; but I feel as consumers, we have the right to ask questions and make the most informed decisions possible. Now, 3 weeks later I'm back to square one. Feeling frustrated and defeated. Time is our most valuable resource and nothing upsets me more than having mine wasted! Leaving 2 stars because I do feel Gus was knowledgeable and could've successfully achieved what I needed.

Robert was SO extremely nice when installing my Ring camera for me. I had tried installing it with…read moremy drill and it would not go through my pillar at all. I thought it was metal hahah but Robert was kind enough to explain to me how it was brick and a very large layer of plaster which was why it took so long to drill through. During the whole process he would explain to me exactly what he was doing. I would definitely recommend Robert to anybody

Robert was great. He helped me install a firewall and popup/ad blocker. He also installed a mesh…read morenetwork for me. Robert spent a lot of time making sure everything was working correctly and explained some tips for several security issues. I would definitely recommend Robert.

I'm extremely satisfied with Amir's work. He is very generous with his time. We discussed the…read moreissues with my laptop and he gave me some possibilities but Amir said that he had to see and diagnose it for sure. He is very honest and quick. I also referred him to one of my friend (who is an entrepreneur) to work on his Mac, and PCs for his business. At the end Amir end up doing some networking for my friend as well as maintenance. He is very knowledgeable in computer world. So far, he's been one of the best technician that I've deal with. Highly recommended!!

Well after 7 years (and I hear that is nursing home years for a PC) I purchased another PC and this…read moretime from Dell. Now, I've had my Dell lap top for 5 years but, it has not had the miles put on it like my PC. All black, beautifully stream lined 19" monitor, tower (with more memory than Methuzilah!), key board/mouse for $699.84! BTW that included all the goodies at no extra charge! However, had it not been for my friend (which resulted from my being a customer of his) John (owner/operator of GEEKMAN.BIZ) I would be in a straight jacket right now! He spent 5 hours (at his rate which is the same for me as everyone else) transfering all of my files, insatalling, updating, connecting tweeking this downloading that leaving nothing left for me to do but sign in and re-enter ID'S and passwords etc. Also, next week he will be back to re-evaluate his work, make adjustments (all for no charge) and then begin re-designing my new web site for my sunglasses business. That too at a very reasonable rate. My fellow yelpers' I'm delighted beyond gegabytes! My USP ports runnith over! There is no way I could have done this without him and his expertise. I mean really where do you find PC people that have all of these cool FREE downloads right from their web site: AVG Security, Crap Cleaner, Adware, Microsoft programs for cool sounds...oh the list of good fortune is endless! Okay maybe some others but everything is user friendly and, he is available for consult either via text or phone. So, just like when I had to have my car in tip top condition when I was in corperate and kept a top notch mechanic available at reasonable rates available now, I have a PC professional for my PC & Lap Top needs. If you have not checked out his web page and seen his wares I encourage you to do so. Also, if your PC, lap top, printer etc are in need of a defragmenting enema CALL this person and your search will be over! ~~~~~~~~~~~~AGAIN HIGHLY RECOMMENDED~~~~~~~~~~
