For those small businesses who have shopped around for web developers, you'd know what I mean when…read moreI say this industry is like the wild, wild west... where many are calling themselves developers who don't know a thing about coding or process. I have worked with several web developers and designers over the last 15 years. One was a huge USA company who dropped the ball on a 3-week project. This was followed by outsourcing via Elance to a company out of India. That same 3-week project took 6 months! So this time around, when I had to upgrade my site, I was very careful to interview the right person, hoping for someone on this continent. Edda was very professional in her communication. She quickly got a sense of what I needed. She was honest to inform me of areas she thought she could not deliver. After more email discussions, we were able to come up with a solution that included an outsourced developer who would help make things happen. My e-commerce site required some customization - she recommended a hosted site and personally made coding customizations to meet my needs. She helped find apps that would help my site run smoother and better. When the outsourced developer dropped the ball, Edda kicked in and worked on my site until the promised outcome was achieved. She's more brilliant than she realized!!! While frustration is a normal part of development process, Edda stuck with it, expended many extra hours and committed to the task until full satisfaction at completion. If you're looking for someone who is patient, will listen to your needs, and has the expertise and integrity to make it happen - Edda of Elan MultiMedia would be it.

I am so insanely impressed with this business…read more Backstory: My laptop (Acer Aspire E 16) keyboard suddenly started having problems. Certain keys (w, e, r, tab weren't working). Obviously extremely frustrating. After doing a ton of software things (rebooting, filter keys, internal battery reset...) I deduced that it must've been a hardware issue. After reviewing some DIY videos for my specific model - I realized it was an impossibility to do it myself. So I ordered a generic E5-575 keyboard off Amazon ($40, 2 day shipping with Prime) for expediency. Now, I needed to find a service provider that could execute a complex keyboard change. Search: I called a few nearby shops: some places were reluctant to give me quotas, and others gave vague promises of timeline. I was in a rush - I filtered on Yelp for a shop that was open both Sunday and late - and found this business. I called the number, a lovely woman picked up, and promised me her business partner (the more computer-savvy one as they do a diversified amount of services) would call me back. He did within an hour (they truly are available on a 24h basis!) and we had a few transparent conversations both over the phone and on text that night. Execution: Jon Barber is an extremely reliable, extremely nice, and AWESOME individual to work with. He was willing to pick up and drop off the laptop + keyboard from my residence (although we later met at a halfway point that was convenient for me given my schedule), and gave me a quick turnaround (just 2 hours!). After having picked up my laptop and the keyboard, he worked with his business partner (that had specific expertise regarding this type of change), and even told me that the # of hours that would go into this was more than expected. Do you know how rare this is? They charge per hour and gave me a fair warning to how long it would take (and then we settled on it in the interim) instead of just going ahead and stiffing me with the bill later. Can't have any more good things to say. Come here for anything you need.

Absolutely outstanding service! My 6 month old laptop got a virus while I was watching TV at 10:00…read moreat night. I was kind of freaked out as this was my only computer and I have school and work to do on it and I knew from past experiences that it would take at least week to get fixed. I also work 7 days a week and I didn't know when I would be able to get away from work to drop it off somewhere. I got a friend to Google the closest computer repair shops to me and one of the names was Dynaworx. I called and a very friendly man named Jon answered and after I explained to him what I thought happened I asked him his hours and was trying to figure out when I could squeeze away to drop it off. Jon then offered to come by my place to pick up my laptop that night! It was already 10:30pm!! Who does that? I couldn't believe it! I obviously said yes to that agreement! Jon was even nicer in person then on the phone! He explained to me in my language (which is NOT computer tech) what he was going to do and he said he would call me when he found out what was going on. Sure enough the next day I got a call from Jon telling me what viruses I got and how he was fixing them and told me that it would be ready the next day!! I couldn't believe it! I was expecting at least a week to be without a computer. The next day when it was ready Jon once again offered to come by my house to drop off my lap top. He explained to me what went wrong and actually installed three different virus protection scanners for me! I would have had no clue what to do so that was extremely helpful and he gave me an mp3 player! How great is that?! I couldn't believe it, in two days I got my lap top fixed and I didn't have to even go out of my way to drop anything off, I got a free mp3 player and three different virus scanners, it was almost worth getting a virus! Bottom line, Dynaworx has incredible, outstanding, amazing service that you never see now days! They are for sure my new go to Computer Fixers!
