Let me put this very simply... Chris is amazing. Here is why and what he did for me. I have a detached garage that I turned in to a bar or a man cave. I was trying to use my house Wi-Fi for the TV and other electronics in the garage. I also run a podcast from the garage, so having reliable connection is paramount. Chris came out and gave me several options. I did not want to have to dig up concrete or grass to run conduit in a direct line. Chris figured out a P2P system for me. In the house, my speed is 1GB. Now in the garage my speed is about 982 Mbps. AMAZING. It's not just that. he cleaned up all of my wires, tying them together, and it was like better than before he was here. I am completely impressed and happy with my new service that Chris provided. If you have networking needs, Chris is your guy. read more

Chris at Pensive Technology is amazing! We've been struggling with our WiFi since we moved into the house - tried a million DIY solutions, hired someone to install WiFi access points throughout the house, nothing we did worked! I called Pensive and Chris fit us in right away - he quickly identified the problems (and there were many), worked to get us a temp fix and then came back a few days later to install new wiring, and set up a mesh system that actually works! Chris is not only great at what he does, he's friendly, takes the time to explain what he did (so that I can do my best to maintain it), gave me tons of advice, "future-proofed" the installation in case I wanted to switch to fiber optic and was incredibly patient with my dogs who loved him and wanted to "help." If you're having trouble with your home network, Chris at Pensive is the only guy you need to call!! read more

Pensive Technology - New Ethernet connection by my work desk! - IT Services & Computer Repair Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Chris Penn came to my house to assess needs and a few days later he came back to do the agreed upon work. My house had a lot of technology that needed to be simplified. Chris was able to figure everything out and simplify internet access points, streamline TV setup, replace a damaged switch. His prices were very reasonable. Three months later, everything is still very stable. I will call Chris again next time I need technology support. I also recommended Pensive Technology to several of my friends that have complex configurations. read more

Amazing service. Chris communicated promptly and clearly, quickly found and fixed the problem in an obscure audio system that came with the house we bought, and refused to take payment for such a "simple" fix. What more can I say? I'll definitely send any other work I come across his way! read more

Chris was excellent! I had some networking done in my home last year and things just never seemed to be working as they ought to. Chris was able to assess the problem in a matter of minutes and was super knowledgeable and efficient in fixing my networking nightmare! He was also very courteous and respectful of my home and of my time throughout the time he spent in my home completing the project. I am so glad that I found Pensive Technology and I would recommend them to anyone in need! read more

We have had TVs installed in 5-6 homes over the years. Chris came out and did an outstanding job mounting 2 TVs. Had good suggestions about where to mount them, ran wiring to hide cables and cords. Best installation we've ever had! Didn't rush through the job, he was very thorough, methodical and patient with us as customers. Took our suggestions where appropriate, explained when it wasn't a good idea. Hire him if you want the job done right! read more

Excellent service from Chris with Pensive Technology. Chris recently upgraded our security camera system.

Chris from Pensive was fabulous. He was very professional and personable. I would highly recommend him for all technology and network connectivity. He got our wifi worker about 250x faster which is great for our dental office. He also organized our wires and left our office looking better than before! Thank you so much, Chris, you were wonderful! read more

just another clueless contractor that doesn't communicate. example "We could check it out Monday, if you are available." "I believe I will be out in your area next week, on Thursday. Let me double check with you though a little bit later once I check my schedule at the office" 6 days later........un announced "we are on the way" no call email or text wouldn't let you do it for free......... read more

Chris was so responsive to my request. I was afraid that my project was too small for him to bother with, but in an age when it's hard to rely on someone actually responding, let alone showing up when promised, Chris overdelivered. I couldn't be more pleased. He was eager, personable and really knew what he was doing, and it showed. Not only was he early for our appointment, he found the stereo equipment I needed, and installed it in no time, at a very reasonable price. Whenever I have additional work to be done, Chris will be my go to guy, and I highly recommend him! read more

Chris recently helped to significantly improve internet connectivity in our house, which has a particularly challenging layout for WiFi. Chris worked tirelessly to find a way to run cables to rooms we were not able to reach previously, installed a new switch, and upgraded access points, which resulted in doubling the internet speed available in most of the house. He was a pleasure to work with and I would not hesitate to work with him again. read more

Chris installed a wireless network for us and wired a couple of rooms throughout the house. It's not easy to find somebody who does this work quickly and reliably at a good cost. Chris did all of that and more. Incredibly helpful and courteous the whole way, easily reachable. He did the work so well and quickly I was convinced he hadn't even gotten half way by the end of the day since everything he installed was practically invisible and worked way better than my existing Verizon equipment. So glad we used him and will certainly be our go to in the future. read more

Chris is the hardest working guy I have met in a long time. He not only put together our plethora of electronics but helped us put up shower curtain rods, speakers on the walls and more. He shows up on time, is very friendly and really wants to help! read more
