Once again, Frankenstein Computers has done an excellent job for our church! I took a 3-year-old…read moreDell OptiPlex 5000 SFF desktop computer in for repairs on March 2. John Cloud diagnosed a failed memory stick (oh no! they cost so much now!). I supplied an "extra" memory stick from one of the other computers at our church and John continued the repair diagnosing and fixing some particularly nasty software errors that had resulted from the initial hardware failure. All of our installed software now works reliably again! Great job! The machine was back in service on March 5 for a very reasonable repair cost! We will continue to use Frankenstein Computers for all of the repairs that are too complicated for us locally. Neil Howard Cedar Park First United Methodist church

My mom's landline was hacked three years ago. They stole the phone line and had ATT hand it over to…read morea throwaway cellular account on Verizon. They proceeded to use her phone line to apply for credit, etc. Scary, invasive and cruel. The first thing I did when I got back was have Jeremy from Frankenstein Computers help me tackle the hardware aspects of the problem. He was outstanding. I recently needed his help again with an entirely different problem and he solved problems with ease, in no time flat. Worth every dollar.

As a student at UT, I am truly unimpressed with their level of service. Do not go to this business…read morewith your laptop or any device that needs to be fixed.  I wanted to get an estimate of what needed to be fixed and how much it would cost to fix my laptop. I submitted an online ticket and dropped off my laptop. I heard no update all weekend or on Monday, so I called on Tuesday morning when they opened at 10 a.m., stating I would be picking up my laptop and looking at other places to get an estimate. SURE ENOUGH someone had picked up my laptop right after I left a voicemail stating I was unsatisfied with the timeframe, received no updates on my laptop, and was taking my business elsewhere. I was charged $50 for someone to "look at it" when I didn't want the service anymore. I had to pay the $50 to get the laptop, and I called THREE different numbers multiple times to stop the process, but that was clearly ignored.  This business is no good for UT students who need their laptops fixed quickly, efficiently, and at a reasonable price. They were going to charge me $300 for service and replacement. In comparison, I went down the street to 1Up Repairs and was quoted $170.  Overall, I am frustrated with receiving no updates, finally getting in contact with someone after the service I did not want was completed, and the service charge of $50 that was not known unless you scroll to the very bottom of the website and then it states it in very small letters. They scam people out of $50 and try to say, "It says it on the website and every time we call." Well, I never received a call back from the 15 calls and voicemails I left until the inspection was completed, so I never got to hear that they would charge me $50 for an inspection.

I had a terrible experience with another repair place, Jason's Computer Repair, and decided to try…read morePC Genie as the next option since I got nowhere in 4 weeks with the other guy. Worked with Jeremy who was great and able to keep me thoroughly informed the entire time. Long story short: I'll come back to this place for future issues (which hopefully isn't anytime soon). Read my review with Jason's Computer Repair for a more complete story of my situation. Everything wrong in that experience was NOT an issue with Jeremy, who actually was able to fix my hardware issues.

I've dealt with AustinPCTech 3 or 4 times since at least 2012…read more Most things I can fix myself, but when it comes to system board failures or Disk Drive crashes, these are the only people I trust and the first call I make. Twice they have recovered most of my data, and only once was the drive too far beyond repair (tbh, I knew that as soon as it happened). Michael has been in the compute business for decades, even since before I built my first PC in the early 1990's. Excellent work and the only guys I trust.

AustinPCTech rendered service for complications from a coffee spill atop my laptop keyboard. I had…read morelow hopes given the volume of the spill, but went forward anyway because I like the computer (fast, large screen, lots of RAM). I've noted the AustinPCTech office in its current location for years, but had never had the occasion to use their services. I went there blindly, as I knew of their longevity from personal observation, and doubted any business would survive in NW Hills without being reputable. I was greeted by Robert and explained my quandary. He advised a reasonable course of action and took the hardware into their work stream. Luck reigned when findings were rendered the next day: the keyboard was toasted but the motherboard, etc were unscathed. A replacement keypad was ordered; Robert worked with me to schedule shipping in accordance with my priority so we could manage cost as much as possible. The part arriveda few days later: I was advised of it's arrival and told to expect a call on completion the next day. Robert called first thing on the day promised -- he must've cranked the work overnight. Back in business, albeit, now using a USB-connected external keyboard to allay risk of another catastrophe while I quaff another cup of joe.

Philtron Computing has come to my rescue several times now, both helping me with personal home…read morecomputer use (desktop as well as laptop) as well as being my IT guy for my small business. As a healing arts practitioner in private practice, I do not have the typical budget of most big companies for hiring outside help. Philtron helped me several times now, first with virus clean-up, then with a few smaller tasks, always charging less than the Best Buy Geek Squad (whom I used in the past, assuming I could not afford my own IT guy). Philip helped me trouble-shoot my computer by phone, assisted me in picking out the right printer for my business needs when my old printer unexpectedly broke, and even ran a remote session for me when I had a last-minute movie-watching glitch in my laptop's Blu-Ray player! He is incredibly calm and patient, affordable, friendly and professional. Whether you're looking for someone to serve your business or personal computing needs, I would most highly recommend Philtron Computing. Phil goes above & beyond for his clients, and he is without a doubt an expert in his field.
