Daniel came in on short notice and completely fixed our internet in our corporate office. He quickly figured out the issue and recommended we upgrade equipment and handled everything. That was Months ago and everything is running smoothly. We were so happy, we now use him for all new location openings. I would highly recommend Computer Lift.

Ive been using Computer Lift for the past 8 months. Daniel Cristurean has been great! He set up my new laptop and transferred everything over without a hitch. Hes also very responsive when I call when from time, either to ask a question or need him to address a PC laptop problem, which he generally responds to quickly, usually via remotely. Daniel is a true professional and I recommend him highly!

Dropped off my laptop with a malfunctioning screen. Daniel replaced the screen and made sure everything was working great. He also returned the laptop wiped down and cleaner than I gave it to him, which is a pro touch. Thanks for great service, Ill be back for future needs!

I havent had the pleasure i using his service yet but he was so helpful over the phone! He was honest about my issues with my computer letting me know it would cost more to replace the piece on my computer than the cost of buying the computer itself! allot of people wouldnt of given me a strait answer and they didnt but he did! Thank you! Honest people are hard to find these days! will be coming to you for business in the future!

Daniel gave my computer a second life! It was so daunting asking for help, and he was just so understanding and professional. He was even faster than I thought it was going to take bringing it back. I really appreciated his expertise.

Very honest and straightforward. Could have easily charged me an arm and a leg for something but he said there was a low likelihood my issue could be fixed and that in any case, he would be sending it to someone else to do the work so he gave me the business name and said theyd do it for a fraction of what he would have charged. I called him because of the universally great reviews and he lived up to them. This will be the first place I go if I have another problem.

What a great experience at Computer Lift! I dropped off my tower Monday evening and had it back completely fixed on Tuesday. Daniel was very professional. He told me the prices up front and was very honest in his assessment. The final price was exactly what he estimated. Exceptional service, very reasonable price!

Super fast, polite, personable and professional. Literally saved me hundreds of dollars in repairs in lieu of sending my laptop back to HP. Never again will I waste hours of my time troubleshooting over the phone with any computer manufacturer. Instead, I’m taking my business straight to Computer Lift. Thanks again, Daniel, for being so efficient at what you do.

My 11 year old wants to build his own PC. We sent Daniel the specs and he was kind enough to spend time search a comparable prebuilt one for me to save money. I really appreciate it. When it is time for us to get a higher end PC, I will definitely come to this place. They seem really knowledgeable and honest.

Daniel is my go to tech guy when it comes to my computer. I am a commercial real estate investment broker, and my livelihood is technology dependent. I first worked with Daniel earlier this year when I need to purchase a new lap top for my office and PC for my home. Daniel provided timely advice on what to look for when purchasing,and them set everything up for me. He is incredibility knowledgeable and quick. A couple of weeks ago I was having problems with my home HP printer, which was independently taking itself offline. After fiddling with it myself, spending time on a phone call to HP tech support, who could get it going--but then it would take itself off line again, I called Daniel. I was able to schedule a remote online session with him the next morning. Within a few minutes Daniel had diagnosed the issue, and got the printer working once again. And it continues to work. I know Daniel is always available if I need his help, and will get to a solution quickly. I give him my highest recommendation--besides, he is a really nice person to work with.

Daniel is beyond amazing!!! I am a small business owner, and he has been like a savior to me for many years. Day, nights, weekdays, weekends- he is always there to rescue me from whatever tech crisis I am confronting. He is beyond patient, exceptionally knowledgeable, and an absolute pleasure to work with. And, his charges are totally reasonable. If you get to work with him, you will be very grateful.

Review №23

I had such a great experience with Daniel at Computer Lift! My Macbook died quite suddenly and of course I hadnt backed anything up in over a year. The Apple store couldnt do anything and recommended I take it to Computer Lift. When I called to make an appointment Daniel explained his services and the process so I knew what to expect. He kept me informed with the progress as he worked on recovering my data. In the end he recovered all of my files and charged a very reasonable price. Overall great service, very knowledgeable and put my mind at ease in a stressful situation.

I was having some major issues with Outlook, among other things and after several attempts of getting support through Microsoft I was referred to Daniel; everything was fixed within 1 day.

Review №28

The personalized service was extremely friendly and helpful. I appreciated the professionalism of Daniel and the way he kept me abreast of the progress of my repair. He drove TO me to pick up and drop off MY computer! I felt treated like a person (not just another customer), and on top of it all, the pricing was extremely fair and- in my situation- was dependent on the success of the repair. I highly recommend Daniel and his colleague here to anyone.

Daniel was super helpful in fixing my laptop issues. He came by my house at no charge to take a look at what was wrong and let me know exactly how he could fix it, how long it would take, and how much it would cost. He kept in contact throughout the process and returned my laptops to me working like new. Very happy with the experience and would definitely recommend Computer Lift!

Review №33

I had an external hard drive that crashed. There was not anything overly critical on it, but some would like to have if I could items. I didnt want to spend hundreds of dollars just to find out Sorry, theres nothing we can do about it. I called Computer Lift because their address was close to my home. Daniel called me back and was very cool. He explained their policies of traveling to where you are, billing in 15 minute increments so youre not committed to a large expense right off the bat. He came over and took a look at the drive. I was asking questions while he was working on it, and he answered them no problem. He diagnosed that there was no easy way to recover the data, and that the drive would need more data recovery forensics. I decided to forego that, but it was nice to know what my options were. Daniel was such a good guy he didnt even bill me for his time since there was nothing he could immediately do to help me out. But he did ensure that the next time I have problems that he will be the first one that I call.

Daniel was very responsive and helpful. In a short time he corrected some lingering problems I had been having for months with my Dell desktop, plus he upgraded my Dell laptop. I particularly appreciated his willingness to answer my questions and to let me watch what he was doing while troubleshooting. He will be my IT guy from now on.

Daniel has been very helpful at keeping my dads computer free of viruses and running correctly. When my dads computer finally died Daniel was able to transfer over everything to a new computer and make it look the same so my aging dad did not get confused. I will call him again.

Daniel was able to retrieve my data from a crashed HD, and all of the files were intact. He was able to do it the same day I brought in my laptop. His cost for doing the work was very reasonable. I would definitely use Daniel for any future issues. He was a pleasure to work with.

Review №37

Daniel was very responsive when I first contacted him about an issue I was having with an admittedly outdated laptop. He provided excellent service and clearly explained what the issue was with my laptop. He offered a very reasonably-priced solution to the problem that enabled me to restore all of my data. I am not so sure I would have had the same experience with another shop. Computer Lift is the only place I would consider for any laptop problems I have in the future.

Daniel was flexible and easy to work with in diagnosing and fixing a hardware bug, and he did not try to sell me any unneeded services. After installing a new video card, he went the extra mile to make certain the setup was correct. Should I ever have another problem, he will be the first person I call.

During the busiest summer season for our wedding photography business, our computer recently did not want to start up and we received the blue screen of death! Computer Lift came out ASAP and got the job done. They were very responsive and our computer was up and running by the next day! It was due to their quick efforts that business carried on as usual. We highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again in the future, as well as refer them to friends/family for all of their computer needs. Dani was incredible to work with - he was patient and went above and beyond for us. Thank you so much for all of your hard work! We really appreciate it.

Geoff is accessible and responsive, in addition to knowing everything necessary to diagnose and repair laptop or desktop computers. He is accurate in his assessments, prices are fair and he delivers when promised. He has earned all of my own computer business and I refer him regularly to anyone who might benefit from his services.

Daniel answered the phone before other service providers were open. He graciously spent his time discussing my PC issues even when I expressed hesitation at bringing it in and revealed his thought process about trouble shooting. He also suggested a different graphics card type and other factors related to the issues. I will definitely use his services if need-be. Recommended!

We recently discovered Computer Lift when our NAS drive failed. They were very prompt returning our call and got to work almost immediately to resolve our problem. We have since used them for other services and have been very impressed with the professionalism and level of expertise. I highly recommend them to anybody in need of the services they provide.

What a great way to have the computer repaired....professionally... by Daniel Cristurean! He comes to your home, thoroughly explains what is wrong, and how he will repair it/cost. He calls you with the progression of the repair, and delivers it back to you. He also follows up with a phone call and email. These days, customer service is one of the most important things to me when dealing with services. David gives excellent customer service, and possesses high integrity and values. You have to love that!

Dan not only has one of the best services and best rates in town, but also does things very efficiently. I went to see him regarding my computer not booting up. He helped me retrieve my data and installed a new SDD hardware . Doing business with him is an awesome experience and I know that I can rely on him if I were to ever need more service on my computer.

I lost all my images on my memory card and almost had a melt down. I called Daniel and he said he would see what he could do. I really had minimal faith that they could be recovered based upon everything i was reading online. I got a call later that night that he was able to recover the whole memory card- at least 3000 photos. I highly recommend him and I would go to no one else but him! THANK YOU!

I had Daniel come to our office to fix an internet problem and he ended up helping us fix a variety of other technology issues. When I asked if he could teach me all that he was doing, he gladly taught me every step of the way. He does not charge for travel time, a perk that was really nice for our small nonprofit. I will recommend him to every person in need. Thank you, Daniel!

Review №57

While I had worked exclusively with Geoff for a previous computer repair issue, this time I worked with Daniel, a technician at CL. After attempting to diagnose the problem over the phone, Daniel volunteered to come by the apartment (at no charge) to look at the computer in person. After 15-20 minutes of briefly tinkering inside my computer, we fired it up and it worked like it had BEFORE I needed it repaired. True to his word, there was no charge for the service and my computer runs great. This is the second time Ive used Computer Lift for my computer repairs and Ive given them 5-star ratings each time. Both Geoff and Daniel are the epitome of professionals. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

I recently had older Apple laptop that was out of warranty that started making an awful noise. When I took it to the Apple store they wanted $250 just to open it up and take a look. I decided to take my laptop to Geoff at Computer Lift, and was pleasantly surprised.He told me what he thought was wrong gave me an estimate and a time when it would be fixed. He even told me that if it was something else it would probably exceed the value of the laptop and wouldnt be worth fixing. This kind of honest dealing is hard to find.I picked up my laptop today. It was fixed, finished early, and under their original estimate! I would definitely recommend Computer Lift to anyone.

I highly recommend Computer Lift. I was unable to open files or connect to the internet and was in the middle of a project with a close deadline. Geoff responded quickly to my phone call, picked up my computer, and returned it fixed in less than 24-hours. His charge was very reasonable, and much less than I expected to pay, based on repair work previously done by others.

My laptop suffered a water spill and stopped working. I was desperate to get it looked at and hopefully fixed. With hardly any notice, Daniel saw me late on a Friday and 90 mins later my computer was fixed. How cool is that! Daniel is professional, efficient, courteous and very reasonably priced.

Review №65

More than I expected! After talking to Daniel on the phone and getting a rough idea of what to expect, he came to my house and picked up the computer… Very nice!His initial assessment over the phone turned out to be exactly right. Beyond fixing what he promised, he called and let me know of a couple of other things that he noticed and fixed at no extra charge.He offered his opinion on ways to get even better performance from my computer but in no way pressured me to do them.I am a little edgy when it comes to having things repaired, but this experience has put my fears to rest.Professionalism all the way!Thanks DanielPaul WilkenOffice Manager

My wife and I moved from the Boston area last year and left behind a nearby computer guru and our electrical engineer son who both kept us computer illiterates on safe ground. In Portland I looked through computer shops on-line and was impressed with reviews for Daniels work. He has helped me 3 or 4 times in the past 6 months with excellent results. Daniel is usually available within 1-2 hours after my call and may solve the problem by phone or accessing my screen remotely. He works quickly and efficiently when I go to his office and explains things clearly. His fees are very reasonable and he always follows up by e-mail to learn if the computer is working well. Daniel always takes a personal interest in how my laptop and I are doing. I dont have the words to praise him enough.

I have done business with Geoff in the past, and when my email server went down, I called him after hours and left a voicemail explaining the problem. He called me back within minutes, and while he could not come out onsite that night, he quickly picked up the phone and found somebody who could. Now that is top notch professionalism. He gave us the guidance we needed after 8pm at night, and went a step further to make sure somebody would take care of us. You never know when your hard drive is going to crash, but you can count on Geoff when it does. I cant say enough great things about this guy.

Daniel is the go-to guy for technical help. He got my TV download system working by adding a wi-fi amplifier and sold it to me at cost ($25). I had purchased an $80 one at Best Buy that I took back. He pointed out that it had no antenna so wouldnt have done the job and $25 was a very good price. He was professional, pleasant, on time and reasonably priced. And he called back several weeks later to make sure everything was working. Ill certainly recommend him.

Outstanding service by Daniel. Had a computer built--could not be happier with results. Had a weird problem when synching old email folder with new Outlook. Turned out there was one corrupt email out of the 20,000 being transferred. Daniel figured it out -- no way I would have ever gotten it to work. Daniel checked back several times to make sure everything was working. Terrific service, great result -- my highest recommendation.

This is a bit like a story, but Geoff at computer lift saved me during the last two weeks of my graduating year in college. My computer was struck with an virus, and my work load at the time was too big to wait for the Geek Squads 7 to 10 day assessment at $300.00! Worried out of my mind, I was sure that there was no way I would Graduate a week behind in all the preparations. luckily I found computer lift, Geoff understanding my peril took my pc under his wing that very day and had it returned to me the very next day! my computer is working great, maybe even better than before, and Im graduating in a few days with everything right on schedule.

I recently met with Daniel while I was trying to replace the fan in my aging MacBook. He came to my rescue when I was unable to remove one of the three screws holding the fan in place. He had the screw out in no time and even took the time to answer questions I had about replacing the fan. During our brief interaction, it was clear to me just how much Daniel cares about his customers.
