Bringing a business or personal computer for repair or clean up is scary. Feeling confident is priceless. Thank you Lawrence for taking care of my Mac. Not only was it fast but well priced. Great customer service and with a smile. Feel comfortable going to ClickAway for your computer needs. Honest customer support here! Thank YOU! read more

Paid $100 to be told "nothing we can do. No creative solutions, nothing. Nothing fixed at all. Then pressured into paying before I could pick up the unit. Not a place I will go back to nor recommend with taking money ok but no service offered at all. read more

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Click Away Santa Cruz, and especially with their technician, Lawrence. Our iMac had slowed down significantly over time, but we really weren't ready to part with it. Lawrence completely overhauled the computer, and the difference afterward was incredible, it runs so much faster and feels like a new machine again. On top of that, my wife had a very specific work-related need that required changing the operating system due to security requirements. Lawrence handled that seamlessly as well, explaining everything clearly and making sure it was done correctly and safely. The entire experience was friendly, professional, and impressively fast. It's rare to find someone who is both highly skilled and genuinely pleasant to work with, but Lawrence checked every box. We highly recommend Click Away Santa Cruz and will absolutely return for any future tech needs. read more

Eric was incredibly helpful installing new parts that we bought online and adding others from their stock to make the whole computer dramatically faster. He got it all done in 2 days despite an additional request. Being a gamer himself, he knew how eager my daughter was to get her computer back and he finished just before closing. The price was fair given and he gave us a small discount too. read more

I've been taking my personal and work Macbooks to Clickaway in Santa Cruz for the past 8 years and the service is consistently excellent. Lawrence, the Mac expert, has grreat customer service skills (friendly, courteous, patient, and a good communicator) in addition to his deep knowledge and expertise with Macs. The office is well run and the folks who work there understand the importance of acknowledging customers as they come in, even when they are super-busy, and keeping people posted on what's going on. I've found the service turnaround time to be short and have yet to bring in a problem that Lawrence can't solve. This year I even bought my new Macbook through them and the purchase process and moving me into the new model was smooth, easy, and quicker than I expected. I tell anyone who needs service to go to Clickaway. Santa Cruz is lucky to have them! read more

Lawrence Rachleff has been my "go-to" computer wizard since 1998! At that time he skillfully retrieved the writing I had been doing on my first laptop with a floppy disc. (remember those antiques?) Now I take my sleek laptop to him for tune-ups. He is a gem! Lawrence is kind, efficient and ALWAYS gets my concerns handled. Although I drive across town to Click Away, Lawrence is there to make thins right. Thank you! Carol Ann Agneessens read more

Great service! I was actually so surprised by how on top of it they were across the whole experience. They followed up with me regularly, were upfront on the issues and pricing, and even helped me lug the giant computer I brought in to my car. I'd definitely work with them again! read more

My Mac got hacked and I took it to Lawrence. It got me all squared away and even tuned me up. Great anxiety reducer and so responsive. And just a click away! read more

We have had several interactions with ClickAway following MULTIPLE experiences with other IT individuals and companies, some highly recommended. After being disappointed (and finding out that even those who claimed to be knowledgable about Apple products were confounded by even simple problems), we decided to try ClickAway. These people are amazing! Their shop is clean and well organized, and while everyone we have worked with has been GREAT, our absolute top praise goes to Lawrence Ratchleff, aka the Mac God. He has helped us in the store several times and has come to our house a couple of times. He has always been incredibly patient, he explains things clearly, works quickly (often multitasking, making efficient use of his time and our $), and is a truly nice guy. Often people who are very knowledgeable about tech aren't exactly good with human interactions, but Lawrence is AMAZING with both. We are very grateful to whomever first told us about this place (neither of us can recall who it was that first told us about ClickAway) and we will continue to call on them whenever we need help (and because we are old and not great with technology, that seems to happen more often as the years go by!). read more

excellent help with mac problems. highly recommend them. Price is right. I will be a regular from now on. read more

Patient, knowledgeable and helpful. He saves me every time. Goes the extra mile. Just wish it was open on sundays

Excellent service with quick response from Eric (and Jay) to correct a charge port problem on my Dell laptop. New parts were obtained and soldered in place to restore full function to the PC and full sanity to the owner. thanks again. read more

Eric went above and beyond to get my new computer running as quickly as possible. Ask to see his water-cooled computer!

Lawrence is really great to work with. As we worked through the issue with my Mac, he was very well informed and communicated in a friendly yet professional manner. I'm leaving off one star as the progress and communication were a bit slower than I thought they should be, although I'm sure it has something with a high workload. Overall I am very satisfied and will continue doing business here. read more

The technical staff at Clickaway provide, without a doubt, the most competent, courteous, and professionally impeccable service of any computer store in this area. Lawrence Rachleff, in particular, has always gone out of his way to keep my electronic devices in the best possible repair. And when it's time to upgrade, he always offers me the best array of choices specific to my individual needs. read more

Click Away has saved the day three times for computer recovery, cell phone repair and most recently a slideshow. Angel Guzman created the most incredible slideshow for my husband's retirement. I initially began the process with a company on the east coast and came to Click Away for help as I was extremely frustrated and unhappy with the company I was working with. I didn't realize Click Away created slideshows, or I would have come here first! Angel immediately helped me figure out the problem that was causing my photo library to become mixed up over and over again after spending many hours over several days putting photographs in chronological order. He very patiently explained what the cause was and immediately fixed it. The other company was puzzled by how this was happening. Throughout the process, Angel utilized his exceptional creativity and technology skills. He combined photos, videos and music and the show is absolutely perfect. Angel's communication skills were outstanding and he was a pleasure to work with. Whenever I was in Click Away for this project, I observed every single professional being extremely kind, patient, welcoming and knowledgeable. Santa Cruz is very fortunate to have this fantastic gem for us all during our most crucial times of need. I highly recommend Click Away without hesitation. I'm forever grateful! read more

Once again, Lawrence at ClickAway solved my MAC computer concerns. Someone had sent me a document which I opened, which could have potentially been a nasty "bug".

The knowledge, courtesy and customer service is above and beyond at Click Away in Santa cruz. Lawrence and Juan can be counted on to deliver. They are tell you the truth.. once I wanted to perhaps buy a new computer but he told me the one I had was still very good. The honesty and integrity of these guys is what keeps us coming back! now my husband is going to them for his computer needs. I've also purchased phone, accessories, here, batteries, etc.. What I have discovered is they do not know an answer to something immediately they will find out for you and let you know. Super would never go anywhere else. read more

Lawrence at Click Away is a terrific Apple troubleshooter who I have worked with for all my MacBook and iPhone problems for many years. Recently he downloaded all my programs from my old computer to my new one and then erased everything on my old laptop so it could be recycled. He made the scary transition easy and seamless! I highly recommend Click Away Computer! read more

Visit 1: I have been to this place multiple times and I can't recommend it enough. They've been great, professional, fixed my product quickly and efficiently, provided all relevant information, and offered competitive rates. Visit 2: I was very enthusiastic about ClickAway when I've gotten fixes in the past. I got my phone repaired for a broken back and a camera that was often have issues with being out of focus. The person questioned which I was using the phone correctly which I found sort of insulting. They then repaired my camera but upon replacing my camera, my flash no longer worked. I got the repair while visiting from out of town. So while the camera worked now (it was not user error) I was stuck with a phone with a broken flash on the camera. Averaging out previous five stars to three read more

I have taken my computers here for maintenance, and all kinds of "fixes" for years- the staff here are incredibly friendly and experts in what they do. They have been nothing but fully honest and transparent- I personally will not go anywhere else . When you have found a great place, you stick to it . read more

The best place for computer help!! Lawrence was incredibly fast in helping us with problems we had endured for years with our iMAC. Was even available same day to help install a work around for the system. Can't recommend them enough! read more

Angel went above & beyond for my husband & I. Not only did he give us the support we sought for our computers, but also he was instrumental in making the transfer from Verizon to Ting. He was so patient & kind. Thank you, Angel. You totally live up to your name! read more

I love ClickAway Tech Repair and IT services in Santa Cruz. I first went there about 3 years ago, after I had been badly scammed and was freaked out that my laptop might have been compromised. They examined my computer, installed a new protection service and relieved my high anxiety. Lawrence (Apple guy) was a pleasure to work with and earned my trust. I told him I would come back when I needed a new computer, and I did - just bought a new MacBook Air from them and am very happy with it and again with my experience with Lawrence. He did all of the transfer of data from my old computer and cleaned things up for me. I trust Lawrence and will continue to go to ClickAway for my computer needs. read more

I absolutely love this place. Great service that I have come to completely trust after using them for many years, now. And Lawrence is the best! Thank you! read more

Lawrence is bright, quick & knowledgeable about everything APPLE. He is extremely helpful. I've never had a MAC computer problem that he couldn't solve. I am so thankful for ClickAway's staff & their support services. --Kerrie read more

I can't speak more highly of the service at Click Away, and in particular from Lawrence. I had been a teacher for 30 years and had tech-support in my district. When I bought a new laptop I thought it would be easy to transfer the data from my old one to my new one, but no. I tried to move the data at the Apple Store when I bought the laptop, but after about four hours and a lot of tears, I took the computer and came home. A friend of mine directed me to Lawrence at Click Away. Lawrence was incredibly patient even though I kept bursting into tears in front of the store (I had a lot on my plate and this was just one more thing than I could handle). He patiently reassured me that he could fix the problem and it would not cost me too much and he took my computer for a couple days. As it turned out, all of my data was so tied up in my old school district's system that it took major effort for Lawrence to untangle it and get it moved to the new computer. But true to his word, the price he had quoted me was the price I was charged. Since then, I have had a couple minor snafu's and have called for handholding and support. Lawrence is so kind and generous with his time. And extremely competent at his trade. I'm grateful that I found this shop and will use them from now on. You should also. read more

Quick, competent, friendly service from Eric. I needed a cleanup of my desktop and got it in a few hours.

Lawrence at Click Away provided excellent service and my several year old Apple Mac desktop is working like new. He is vey patient even though he is always very busy. Some of the best computer service I have ever had! read more

I wanted to write this to thank Lawrence at ClickAway Tech Repair in Santa Cruz. My MacBook wouldn't turn on, and knowing nothing about computers, I was completely lost. Lawrence ran a diagnostic and found a severe motherboard issue, then he checked my AppleCare status. He informed me my warranty was almost expired and advised me to go to Apple immediately, as they could likely repair it with no charge. He also did all of this FREE of charge in about 10 minutes! Thanks to Lawrence's advice, I got my MacBook repaired just before my AppleCare expired, saving me $1500. Thank you, Lawrence, for your exceptional service and caring honesty. read more

Excellent business model. Analyzed my computer issues, explained the options, quoted me a cost, (and did not exceed it) did the work quickly. Best of all the computer worked perfectly. Highly recommend this business. read more

I received the BEST service EVER for my computer. ClickAway came out and within an hour everything was fixed! Angel was the expert who came out and what an Angel he is. I cannot be happier than I am right now. I will recommend ClickAway to all my friends and family. Thank you so much ClickAway/Angel. read more

Took a Macbook Pro in to get help loading files from a thumb drive. Got that done and so much more. Got my iphone and ipad and Macbook all synced and working in harmony. Lawrence also took care of other small details, all within a half hour. Couldn't be happier. read more
