I took my Laptop to J C a few months back to get it running and they got it going no problem, and then a week or so ago it died on me again so I took it back, and they did it again! Up and running no problem, TY Jane!! read more

I had a failed hard drive, they changed a small fee to inspect the drive. A few days later they said it did not look good but they are still trying. They eventually told me they were unable to recover anything. I felt they were honest and made a solid attempt. The referred me to an outside service but warned me how expensive they were. After their consultation I realized the high cost would not be worth it. I appreciate their candor. read more

I am a small business owner so I need to know what's going on with my computer as soon as drop off as possible and it's always very quick! And I need back asap and that's also very quick! Feels like they are my own IT dept and I will go nowhere else. I also appreciate the value! read more

I went over and look for a computer repair wherein they can fix my dilema. I have an almost full c-drive and would like tot transfer to a bigger and fastwr asd. I look around and I was promised 4-5 days work and quite not very helpful ober the phone. I called Johnson Computer and spoke with Jane. She was practical and quite an expert with compiter issues. She told it will be done in one day and wxplained to me the reason for that. To make long story short, she's able to do what she promised and I went home happy with the service. I highly recommend her shop. read more

I spilled water on my MacBook Pro and thought I would have to buy a new laptop. I took it to Best Buy to have the Geek Squad team look at it and they told me that they don't repair MacBooks. So I went to the Apple store and they told me they would have to send it to their tech team, and the minimum was $1500 for them to diagnose. That's not even for the repair job. If they can't fix it, the $1500 would be gone. My dad found Jane and dropped off my laptop with her. There was a lot of water damage, but she was able to get the job done within 2 weeks; she was able to recover my data as well. I was able to use those files on a loner laptop that I borrowed from my sister. After Jane fixed my laptop, I've never had any issues. She's very passionate about her job, which shows in her work. I would 100% recommend her if you've damaged your Apple laptop. Apple store is a ripoff - they just want you to buy a new laptop. read more

My laptop wouldn't charge/start and they were able to diagnose the issue with a component level review. Jane is communicative. I was impressed by their skills and would recommend going to them for tough computer issues! read more

Very knowledgeable, trustworthy and accommodating. I will bring all business to them. Thank you.

Came in with my custom pc that wouldn't boot after weeks of swapping out different parts. Jane was super nice and explained what she would fix and about how much it would cost. After they diagnosed the issue, they called me and told me what needed to be replaced. Highly recommend! read more

Laptop had been overheating so I took it in and explained exactly what they would do, they fixed the issue and called me back within 2 hours to pick it up. Very good service! read more

I found johnson computers through excellent reviews so it only makes sense to write one as well. Jane was particularly helpful as once I mentioned my problem with my laptop she immediately knew what to do and was able to pick up a day later. Excellent service for the price and well worth going with johnson's computers for reliable service!! read more

I own an Onkyo receiver, which has a known defect that eventually causes it to not work. To fix it, you need to reflow one particular chip, to fix some cold solder joints. I brought my receiver over the bridge to Johnson because a shop here on the peninsula said they were very good at board-level work. Jane and her husband did a great job of quickly fixing the board. They charged me a reasonable amount, and so far the stereo has worked perfectly all weekend. I'm very happy I brought it to Johnson to be repaired. I'll come back to them if I ever need board-level repair work done again. read more

Fast service great quality fixed my item saved me $10,000. We broke our XRF machine when it fell on the floor the motherboard inside broke. This place fixed and repaired it and it worked like new again definitely recommended. They saved me a ton of time and headache. read more

Jane helped me checking the laptop and give me good advice, without charging me,y device has a cpu problem but not solid

Jane did an excellent job diagnosing the issue with my laptop and then repairing it. Initially we thought I would have to send it back to the manufacturer to replace the motherboard since she didn't have a replacement (it was a customized gaming laptop). However, before we did that she asked me to let her try repairing the motherboard since it was going to be replaced anyway. And it worked! Got the laptop back within a few days and while a bit pricey, it's been working great for the last month. read more

Wow! Johnson Computers recovered some valuable data off of what I thought was a dead hard drive. And they did it in 24 hours, a very impressive turn-around time. The guys at the 'squad' would have had to send it out to level 2 or 3 to recover the files. They couldn't give me an expected completion time or cost estimate. I've known Johnson Computer for hardware fixes, but wasn't aware of this magic. I strongly recommend going to them first for your computing needs. One VERY happy camper.... read more

Had to take my computer back 3x but finally the issue was resolved. $50 to diagnose the issue per item can get kinda pricey but hey that's the cost of doing business. read more

I was working up in the bay area for a couple of months, when my computer decided to stop working. I did a Google search and Johnson computers came up. Jane is the contacts name here at Johnson computers. She was able to repair and have me back up in running within 2 days!! She discovered that my motherboard was no longer working. Their service, professionalism and quick repair of my work computer was awesome. I highly recommend them when ever you encounter a computer issue. read more

I have brought my laptops to Johnson Computers for repairs and everytime Jane and Johnson were able to fix them. They are the best in the business!!! read more

They not only troubleshooted my circuits, they also resoldered it to make it work again. I built this computer myself so it was infuriating me to why my power won't turn on. After hours of troubleshooting it myself, I went to Johnson's Computer after realizing it might be a soldering issue. It wasn't a wire like I thought however. They made sure each circuit is okay and fixed a faulty manufactured case. read more

Came in for a PC Ethernet issue and got it resolved in a couple hours. Great service. 10/10

Great service! My business computer shut down on me and after calling several tech repair shops, they were the only shop to be able to take a look at my desktop in the same day. They were able to examine and detect the issue quickly, provide a cleaning, and offer a replacement for a great price. The owner is a very attentive and helpful lady. She stayed until after her closing hours to return the items to us. Overall great timeliness, rates, and customer service. read more

The owners are nice but their business isn't. I went in with my laptop that had a cracked screen and I thought all was well until after I had picked it up. First of all, the owner told me she wouldn't give me my laptop back until I left her a good Yelp review. Secondly, I got home and turned on my laptop (touchscreen Lenovo ThinkPad) which didn't have a single problem until after I took it to Johnson Computers. On the paperwork you fill out the details about your device and I did so correctly, but my laptop is no longer touch screen, runs incredibly slowly, and now the border around the screen is coming loose. When I called to ask why my laptop was no longer touchscreen, I was told that I didn't let them know that it was touchscreen and that if I wanted it fixed I would have to spend another $500 to order the touchscreen and then bring it back to Johnson Computers to be "fixed" again. Overall, I would NOT recommend this business. read more

My laptop stopped working so I yelped pc repair places and found this one close to my home. Took my laptop to them, and was diagnosed with a shorted out motherboard. A replacement would've been more expensive (I looked it up), but Jane (the lady who helped me out) said she could try to repair it first before trying to replace it. She got it to work at the end of the day, and I saved some money out of it. Sometimes I don't mind having things repaired instead of replaced if it saves me the cost. Jane is very friendly and professional. She is quick to communicate and keep me updated. I would definitely recommend them if you need any pc/apple repairs. read more

Most impressive repair I had for years. I thought my computer is not worth repairing because the problem seem so complicate. My guess was confirmed by Jane and I was shocked they went so deep into the system to find the cause. Digging a shorted capacitor among hundreds of components is not a trivial task especially mine is a very complex mobile workstation. I'm so glad I went to Johnson computer for my repair. Jane is super helpful and they got some hardcore skills read more

Awesome support. She was great to work with and very responsive. She got the job done and was very professional.

I had recently broken a flash drive into pieces. This was important to me because it contained every work file I had created in the past 14 years. I dropped it off here and 24 hours + $300.00 later all my data was recovered to another flash drive. A bit on the high end, but if it's important to you this is the place to do the job. read more

Customer service is excellent! Brought my laptop in on Tuesday and was ready by Thursday. Definitely recommend!!

I needed my Chromebook's charging port fixed and found Johnson Computers thru online search. Went and met Jane. Super nice lady. She didnt promise that she could fix my chromebook, and was very honest and straight forward in letting me know that she will try. If fixed, she will charge me full, otherwise the base amount. Then within few days, she called and asked me to test the chromebook. When she explained how it was fixed, I was amazed. Very smartly, her technicians had soldered the charging plug to motherboard, so data could be saved. The tiny pins had to be soldered using magnifying glasses. Such an intricate job. The pictures will show how small the replaced part was. Thank you Jane. Very much appreciate your help. read more

Jane was helpful and responsive, they had my macbook up and running in a few days..very knowledgable and professional

JOHNSON COMPUTER is absolutely fantastic! I met with Jane, who is absolutely fabulous. I took my laptop into her because I had lost everything and a message kept coming up, saying boot drive not found. I was also not able to open up downloads from my Yahoo! Mail, nor connect OneDrive to my other devices when I brought my laptop in. Jane called me two hours after I brought my laptop in and gave me a quote, explaining that the hard drive was corrupted; she asked me if I wanted her to go ahead and repair it and I said yes - she promised to have it back to me the next day or the day after. She called me the next day at noon, and said it was all repaired and ready to go. I went to pick it up and Jane explained to me the different problems that was going on with the computer. Somehow, someway, she managed to save everything that was important to me. She asked me to try it out and it worked perfectly. She asked if I had any questions and I asked her if she could help me find some different programs that I had thought might be gone and she willingly sat down with me to help me find those programs. In the future, if have a need for further computer assistance, I know where I will go. I am very impressed with Jane and she's nice too! If I could give her 10 stars I would happily do so! read more

Very speedy and effective service. They had my laptop fixed and back to me in two days.

You gotta go see Jane. In short, I was having slow computer problems and used HP Tech support. I had 11 calls with them in 12 hours and they made a bad problem worse where my system essentially "crashed" and I needed to do a system restore. The problem - HP never told me to do a back up first. Essentially, my computer was locked and the only way to fix was a system restore. In desperation, I brought my computer to Jane and she was able to SAVE ALL MY DATA!!! she even called me at 8pm, telling me what needed to be done and in less than 24 hours, she restored my computer and SAVED ALL MY DATA that would've been lost if I had followed HP's advice. THANK YOU, Jane!!! read more

Jane is very friendly, knowledgeable professional. My Macbook pro screen had vertical lines covering 30% of the screen. She right away said the LCD screen had to be replaced and after checking online she found a used one for $500. She also gave me the option to buy my own and that she can replace it. I let her order it and once it arrived she replaced it on the same day. Her labor fees were fair and would definitely be going there again for any future issues. Thanks for the great service. read more
