I can't say enough how amazing this company is! Our growing small business had serious issues and not a lot of money. Tony created a plan to fix our immediate needs within our budget and worked with us to create a long-term solution that gives us the most bang for our buck. We are moving into our new offices now and I could not be more pleased with their services. Highly recommend them to anyone who needs an issue resolved. read more

Tony suggested using a blanket to transport my all in one computer and nestling it in the back seat with the passenger seat leaned back. Good advice! Everyone that works here is nice, and Ryan at the front desk is super friendly and helpful. I came in at 8am on a Monday morning and got my working computer back Tuesday at 4pm! To me that was fast! My computer had a real easy fix, so it was just the cost of one hour labor. I used the 10% off yelp coupon, no problem. Tim did a good job explaining what the issue was *twice* and talked me through some options for backing up my stuff. It was scary seeing the blue screen, and I will definitely backup from now on. One thing that could have improved the experience would be if they were better about calling me to give a status update. I was eager to get my work computer back, and called 3 times to ask about the status. One time they said they'd call at the end of the day and didn't. Then the last time I called they said it was ready to get picked up. So maybe I didn't give them enough time to call me, because I was calling them a lot and often. I hope I don't run into any more computer issues, but if I do, I'll go back. read more

After 6 months of my computer refusing to turn on, I decided it was time to get it fixed. Well, mostly I decided it was time because my gf is moving out soon and is taking her functioning Mac with her. Frankenstein had decent reviews and the name is pretty awesome. I dropped my hunk o' junk Sony off during my lunch break and left it in their hands. Originally, they said it could be fixed pretty easily with some scan or something. Truth be told, I know about as much about computers as I do my car: It's awesome when it works, but when it's broke I'm screwed. They then called back to say that the problem was more complicated, as I had two installed anti-virus programs fighting each other, thus leaving my computer open to the intranet's evil do-ers. After that, they lost me. Basically, to get it fixed I would need to wipe out Windows and re-install it. This would cost $300. I'm suspicious of people who actually know things about stuff I don't, like mechanics. But they said I could do this myself for a fraction of the cost. I knew this was not an option for me. I didn't want to put in $300 worth of work into a computer I would only have for another couple of years. They offered to download all my data and charge me just $60, even though they had put a lot of effort into figuring out what was going on. Yes, so I did my computer in by literally having too much protection. I am now a Mac girl for life. read more

I run a small nonprofit agency and Frankenstein has been our savior on more than one (or six) occasions. Fast and honest and reasonable service. Tony will not try to sell you anything you don't need and even talked me out of a costly upgrade to my server that would have been at best an expensive band aid in favor of something that can get me through to when I can find funds to purchase a new server. When that happens, they will be installing it. They have earned our trust and loyalty many times over. They also worked on my personal laptop prior to working with the nonprofit, and that was also a great experience. read more

These guys are awesome! I brought my computer in thinking it was dead forever and they fixed it, only charging me for diagnostics. I got home and still had a problem and so they traded me with a new ac adapter with no charge. read more

Extra props to these guys! I had a damaged screen they diagnosed right away, and then gave me the estimate on cost and time to repair. Seeing I needed it sooner, they suggested I try a competitor just in case the screen was available in-house. They didn't have to do that, but it's going above and beyond that makes them special. When I need help in the future, I'll surely return to them. read more

I bought my wife a new Macbook Air to replace her (really old) Powerbook. I took the (really old) Powerbook and its hip, lightweight descendant into the "Genius Bar" in the Domain to transfer the old pictures and music that she cared about onto the new system. The genius, while friendly, told me he'd have to charge me over $100 to transfer the files. When he told me he could show me how to do the transfer on my own for free, I took him up on the offer. He pulled up the (really old) Powerbook, got ready to launch the Migration Assistant, and promptly discovered that my wife's (really old) Powerbook was too old to play nicely with her spry new laptop. He said he had never run into that problem before. Did I mention that my wife's (really old) Powerbook is really old? Shortly after a botched attempt to put her (really old) Powerbook into "target mode" to do a direct data transfer, we decided to take our problems somewhere else. My wife's (really old) Powerbook then refused to boot up. Must have been natural causes. Enter Frankenstein Computer. I exchanged e-mails with Ryan and he let me know they'd charge me $80 to pull the data off the drive, up to a 10GB maximum. Given how old my wife's (really old) Powerbook was, I was relatively confident we wouldn't need more than that. However, Ryan let me know that any data transfer over 10GB would be $120. I decided to give them a shot. I dropped off my wife's (really old) Powerbook on Monday and got it back the next day. It would have been done Monday itself, except the Mac tech happened to be out of the office. Ryan and crew were good enough to let me know that ahead of time and they made sure to call me when the work was done. All in all, I was happy to have a quick turnaround on what I considered a reasonably-priced service...and they kept me informed on when things were done without taking up too much of my time. I'd work with them again! read more

Computer in and out in a day. what more could you ask for. Nice guys too.

Went here because, obviously, I needed help with my computer. Thankfully, the guy who greeted me at the front desk was able to fix my issue in less than a minute. The service was quick and friendly and he didn't let me leave until he was sure everything was working correctly...and then he didn't charge me anything! I fell in love with this place, and should anything happen (heaven forbid!), I'll be bringing my computer here. read more

My husband and I own a small retail shop. One morning as we were opening our store, our POS system malfunctioned and would not start up. In the past we've used other repair companies that took several days to diagnose, so after reading good reviews about Frankenstein Computers, we decided to give them a shot. They had a technician in our store within 25 minutes!!!! After a quick diagnosis it was determined that they would have to bring it back to their shop for their master technician to further diagnose. They assured us it would be looked at immediately (since it meant w/o our POS, we had to issue handwritten receipts.) Within an hour they called us and informed us they were able to recover our system and restore the program. They delivered our POS and we were up and running in 2.5 hours total! Remarkable work from such a professional and skilled bunch of guys! Going forward, they will be the only company we use for IT problems. read more

The very best!! Mitch not only works on my computer,I phone even download phone to my car. Wonderful people to have on my speed dail.

Knowledgable, patient, and over all great staff. Saved my work computer = saved my life! Highly recommend.

If I could give them 6 stars, I think I would. They are just awesome! Response time, explanations, suggestions, saving me money, skill, courtesy, these people have all this in abundance! I couldn't be happier to have found them and only found them because the other tech service I tried to use refused to return any of my calls (see my previous review). I would definitely recommend them, and their front office person is a hoot. Never heard a happier sounding guy than Ryan! Kudos to him and our wonderful tech Patrick! read more

Frankenstein computers has always provided timely effective and professional service to me. I got a new laptop that was super slow because of all the junk that it came loaded with and after one remote session with Patrick. It is SOOOO much better. I am now actually looking forward to using my new birthday present!!! read more

In an update to my previous review, Frankenstein computers phoned me in an effort to make it right. They said to bring in a thumb drive and they recovered my data from the previously failed hard drive. I certainly appreciate that and will bring my computer to them for service in the future. read more

Once again, Frankenstein was responsive, professional, and effective in fixing our computer issues. Thanks so much, guys!

We've worked with Frankenstein for over five years and have always been happy with their service. They are quick and reliable! I would recommend them to any business that needs an IT service provider. read more

These guys are great. I thought my computer was infected with the Zeus virus. Took it in and was given a service estimate, call back time frame, and completion projection. They were prompt in contacting me with an update. It turned out my computer was not infected so the charges was below their original estimate. They also cleaned up my drive and installed additional malware protection at no charge. I really trust them. Felt very comfortable dealing with Ryan and Tim. Thank you Frankenstein Computers. read more

I have used Frankenstein multiple times and they are always very helpful, explain everything clearly. I will always take any of my computer repair needs to them. read more

We have been using Frankenstein Computers for our Company's IT support for 5 years now and I use them personally for computer issues. Mitch is our main point of contact there and I couldn't say enough good things about him. Mitch has great customer service, always friendly, and he provides a quick turn around on any matters we need addressed. Thank you guys so much for all years of help! We look forward to many more. read more

I just picked up my computer and I couldn't be happier with the service. They are super responsive and had my machine diagnosed and ready the next day. Everyone I talked with was knowledgable and happy to help. I was also pleasantly surprised that the bill was lower than I expected too. They've definitely earned a repeat customer. read more

I can't thank Matt enough for being the life saver that he has been for our company. We've had some issues arise and all it took was a quick call to Matt and he was on it. It truly means a lot to work with a company who gets the importance on responding fast to our issues and fixing the problem immediately. This company is very professional and I'd highly recommend them to anyone with any IT needs. read more

I'm so thankful I decided to take my computer here instead of shipping it back to the manufacturer for repairs. After a lot of researching the problem with my laptop on the internet, I came to the conclusion that the hard drive was corrupted and would need to be replaced (meaning I'd lose all my files). John at Frankenstein took a quick look inside my computer and found that the connection to the hard drive had failed, not the hard drive itself. He fixed the problem in less than ten minutes and even explained to me in layman's terms what was the problem was and why it happened! Do yourself a favor and give Frankenstein a try next time your computer fails. read more

These guys are as good as it gets. Always nice, polite, helpful. Showup when they say they will. Do a great job everytime! No matter how you hook up with this business, imo you won't find better. My most frequent interactions are with Jonathan, Ryan and Mitch, they stay very patient, they understand that in our business the computer is needed all day everyday and work right along with us to keep us from missing deadlines that can cause people their homes. read more

5 stars = "As Good As It Gets." Tony & Mitch have been taking care of our computers for several years now. They really seem to like what they do and do it with good humor. We've used other places in the past, so we have something to compare Frankenstein against, and when something goes wrong we call them. They make a fried motherboard as much fun as a fried motherboard can possibly be, with the fairest pricing in town. Update: Add Ryan to the list of helpful folks at Frankenstein. read more

Awesome service. Had a virus- they got rid of it quickly.. called me with updates and even installed a free anti virus program. They were very nice, professional, and I felt comfortable leaving my comp in their hands. And...they cleaned it before they returned it. It looks like a new creature! read more

Customer Service is top notch! I highly recommend Frankenstein Computers. They service our office with multiple tech needs. They are timely, friendly and make sure you get the best for your money. read more

These guys fixed 3 computers for us with no problems, great customer service and speediness. Highly recommend!

Thank you, Frankenstein for giving me advice and help free of charge! I really appreciate your honest feedback, even though it meant my motherboard was fried! I will be back and I will recommend your services. read more

These guys were great. Efficient, knowledgeable, creative with their problem solving and conscious of my pocketbook. They did a great job diagnosing my laptop, saving the data, and fixing it. From start to finish, only took 3 days. They were in constant communication with me, letting me know my options and more importantly, offering cost effective solutions instead of upselling me. Great job Tony and Ryan! read more

These guys were very helpful when my laptop had a problem I couldn't solve. Turns out it was a false alarm; some dust or something in the fan. They blew it out and sent me on my way without charging me. Rest assured if I ever had a real problem I will take it to them. read more

They were very nice to deal with, provided a clear and concise description of the problem and recommended solution. Laptop was repaired on time. I would not hesitate to go back or recommend them to friends. read more

I have been using Frankenstein Computers for years. They have helped me clean a laptop of viruses, fix a desktop software updating problem and figure out how to enhance the performance and online safety of all my computers. Just knowing they are in my neighborhood makes me feel more secure. They have always been helpful and gone the extra mile to make sure I am not paying more than I need to be. I've never worked with anyone at Frankenstein Computers that I wouldn't recommend, but in particular ask for Jonathan Allen. read more

Great service, thought my computer was toast,but it was a simple power cord solution.Very knowledgeable. I would definitely use them again for any future computer repairs or problems. read more

I brought my laptop into Frankenstein Computers on Lamar Blvd because it was not charging. After only about an hour, the technician called me with their diagnosis. The problem was just the charger/adapter, and not the laptop. Not only did they not make a false/frivolous diagnosis just to coerce me to buy something I did not need, they didn't even charge me a dime for the diagnosis they did made. They provided me ample information on what part number to replace (adapter/charger) and where I can purchase one. Sure enough, that simple purchase fixed the problem! I'm extremely happy with my experience with Frankenstein Computers, and recommend them to anyone! read more

I called and talked to Frankenstein Computers to see about building a PC. I talked to one of the techs, and I apologize I don't remember his name. He was extremely helpful. We talked a good amount of time and I found that I did not need a high-end computer. He gave me many many ideas and recommendations.All for the cost of nothing. The tech was very knowledgeable, very nice, took his time explaining all the information. I wholeheartedly recommend Frankenstein Computers. I will take my computer to them for any service I may need in the future. It was ALL about customer service. Now I know why they have so many great reviews. Royce. read more

Once again, they tried but didn't fix the problem and once again, I fixed it myself after picking it up unfixed. And they're still nice people to work with. Although this time they told me this computer's time was up ... but I'm still using it happily. read more

The Frankenstein Computer experts are as good as it gets. They have been taking care of our computers for several years. Customer service is always excellent and they've always been able to correctly diagnose the problem and fix it at a fair price. We've even referred an elderly lady to them, and they fix her computer remotely. They're just a lot of great people caring enough to do a great job. read more

I love these guys. They continue to out shine even their own reputation with their service. Fast, professional, and knowledgeable, that's what you get when dealing with them. No surprises here. B read more

Though there was initially a problem with the work done on my laptop, the owner has graciously agreed to apply the diagnostic fee to the repair. read more
