The Computer Stop needs to be listed in Computer Store search. Ryan is incredible. He had a hard job to replace my Lenovo laptop enclosure and had to completed disassemble and reassemble each component in the system, then test for working and migrate data on a 256G SSD to a 1TB density drive. (Itsy-Bitsy parts too) He did this in a day! Another South Hills computer repair company wanted triple the amount and wasn't sure they could do it. They wanted to keep my computer for 2-3wks! As another reviewer noted.. your PC crashing is a scary event. Someone who is competent, safeguards your data and gets the job done timely with a fair price is PRICELESS! You won't go wrong coming to the "The" Computer Stop. read more

What a great experience I had here today. I thought I might have to replace my fairly new laptop but Ryan was able to figure it out, and download drivers and updates I didn't know I needed. Price was reasonable and saved me a boatload of time, money, and aggravation. As we are so dependent on technology, it is so nice to know there is someone local you can trust when problems develop (which they inevitably will...) . read more

The Computer Stop - IT Services & Computer Repair Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

In a world where many have of us have become dependent on computers for both work and play, it feels cataclysmic when something goes wrong with our machines. I am no exception to this rule. I recently built my first gaming rig, and alas, I experienced errors upon booting on the computer's second day of life. I was panicked, because I have little experience with Windows. I called The Computer Shop. Seeing its overwhelmingly positive reviews on Google, I thought I'd give it a try. The reviews were confirmed. Ryan picked up the phone, and talked me through some of the options I could try at home before bringing the system in. After exhausting the options within my capacity, I found it best to bring it to The Computer Stop. Ryan expediently ran some tests on the device, and found an issue with the formatting on the Hard Drive. He charged me a very fair price for the amount of labor that it took to diagnose and repair my problem. This is where Ryan and his Computer Stop set him aside from big business computer teams like Geek Squad. He's not just in it for profit. Of course, a fundamental aspect of running a store is for fiscal gain, but Ryan has genuine passion and understanding for computing, and cares strongly for the well being of his customers. He gives advice and tips to fix it on your own before suggesting his services. Should he do work on your computer, he will better prepare you to deter a similar issue from occurring in the future. I recommend any and all people with computer problems to seek help at The Computer Stop. Whether you're a gamer, content creator, or an Average Joe/Jane who needs to repair your productivity piece, you'll be met by Ryan's eccentric energy and smile. He'll be sure to give you the best service for your machine. Remember, he only takes cash or checks. Running an independent store is difficult nowadays, and this is a insignificant step to add when considering Ryan's superior service. Even if you forget (like I did) there are many ATMs surrounding his store. No problem. Five Stars. read more

I can't recommend this shop highly enough! I was having a problem with my custom-built gaming PC, and Ryan was very helpful in person and over the phone. He does free assessments, and my PC only needed a minor fix. He even went above and beyond to fix problems I didn't know about and answer all my questions. read more

When my personal computer's screen went black earlier this year, I naturally wanted to see if it could be repaired before investing in a new one. After reading the glowing reviews of The Computer Stop, it seemed clear to me that Ryan was the best person in town to take a device such as mine and receive the knowledge, guidance, and insight on how to proceed, regardless of whether or not a successful repair was made. While Ryan's in-person customer service, passion, and enthusiasm matched the reviews I read, several of his basic business practices have quite frankly been disgraceful, hence the poor review. Listed below are some of my concerns: 1) He isn't present during his business's posted hours of operation. As of this writing, The Computer Stop is open 11:00am-7:00pm on weekdays. After recently driving through rush hour traffic after work and feeling grateful that I arrived at his front door at 6:30pm with 30 minutes to spare, I was confused to find the door locked and the lights off. It seems to me that he could either leave a note on the door, update his hours of operation, or develop some other system that would better inform clients of his whereabouts so they don't waste their time. 2) He isn't communicative. Despite carefully listing three different ways to reach him in his voicemail message (four, if you count text), my personal experience is that it takes several attempts to reach him through any means. It once took me five separate phone calls in order to receive a basic update on the status of my device after it had been in his possession for well over a month. 3) He doesn't follow-through. When it was clear that my device would be unable to be repaired, he promised me in writing that he would refund me the $80 I spent to purchase a part that at the time he deemed necessary to make a repair but that he instead ended up using "for another project". More than two weeks after promising to refund me "by tomorrow or the next day", he has yet to do so. This is despite a follow-up attempt on my end that, given how hard it is to get in touch with him, unsurprisingly went unanswered. Given my experience, it seems that, in a city home to over 300,000 residents along with a growing technology footprint, you could find someone equally competent and passionate about computer repair services, with the added bonus of good business practices. I'll update if anything changes, but at this time I don't anticipate getting my $80 back. read more
