I gave Device Docs a lot of projects over a multitude of devices and was met with disappointment almost every time.
I first had them do a CPU swap for me, their tech broke the new CPU and tried to lie about it. I took the loss on it & still used them even though the tech lied about it and improperly installed it. They did not do anything to make it right & still charged me the entire bill + I had to pay to get a new CPU again & take the loss on the one they damaged.
After that, I brought in my 3d printer that I was having issues with installing the add-ons and getting the first print done (I checked first to see if they could work on it and they said yes). About a week later I got the 3d printer back with nothing done to it, all of the add-ons given back to me and a bill for around $200.00. I still have no idea what they actually did, because no add-ons were installed and that is what I brought it there for.
Then I came in for another project, a CPU upgrade again for a different PC and guess what they did it again. They broke the CPU and tried to act like it came like that. (Thanks Tim!)
Each and every CPU I ever brought them was new in box and undamaged.
This time I was not going to accept it and after talking with their manager (Garret) who is no longer there as well as having an employee admit that another employee was improperly installing CPUs, I got a store credit for some of the labor and it did not even cover the actual CPU replacement cost.
After that I was reassured by Garret that they could handle a couple larger projects that I had and to deal with him directly, so I started the process with Garret and then never heard back from him again.
Turns out he quit or was fired, but no one ever got back to me until I reached out again. I was once again assured that they could handle this and that it wouldn't take too much time at all.
Fast forward over 2.5 months later and almost $1,000+ in costs and they still have not completed it properly. They lost numerous pieces and power cords that they could not locate, they actually had to send them to me when I moved and could not get me the right parts that I had originally that they lost! (I have proof).
The video cards were never properly installed on either device and did not have the drivers installed either. One check of Nvidia SMI showed that slots 1,2,3 are unclaimed and have no drivers. Slots 0,1 on the other server were the same.
Furthermore, the main server continually has an issue with cards 1,2,3, with an error stating they have potentially fallen off the bus, but not slot 0. How could they have cleared this?
Their negligence has delayed the launch of an important project I have been working on for over a year & they do not seem to really care at all about the negative impact that they have had on it.
I moved a hour away & tried continually to get them to help, but with no result. They are happy providing me the work as is.
I reached out & was told it would be $200 for the first hour and $60 after that, but they never actually gave it to me in working condition like I paid for in the first place.
My instructions were clear from the beginning & they said they could do it, but instead did not and billed me like it was completed.
They have no plans to make it right, just to continue to charge me outrageous hourly rates for the work they should have already completed.
So now I am left with 1 completely non-working server that costs over $15,000+ & one other one that my team and I got working after a week, with no thanks to them at all. Not to mention all of the money lost on damaged parts that they were unaccountable for.
I have tried time and time again to work with them & get this resolved, but they only want more money now.
I have given them a chance on a multitude of devices and they have failed each time. They cannot even keep a full-time tech or manager, but the place is always full of people who can't actually help you, they just ask for your number to have the tech call you back. Do business with them at your own risk. read more
