Scott is an extremely nice, kind person and I felt welcome just showing up last Monday with my sick computer. I left it with him and a couple of hours later, when he'd had time to check it out, he called and said it was ready. He explained what had been wrong and the cure for it. And the cost was really affordable! Definitely would consult with him again, and would recommend him to anyone for consultation. Very happy with the results.

My hard drive crashed and of course, I didn't have any recent backup. It was a disaster to me and thank God for Scott and Geeks in Phoenix. He did the absolute best you can do for someone with nothing much backed up. I am now working out little things but at least I am able to access records, docs and more. THANK YOU SCOTT!

I needed a hinge replacement for my laptop. Scott found the part I needed, repaired my laptop, and did an excellent job. He went far beyond the call of duty to help me, and I appreciate it. Scott's professionalism is hard to find these days. I recommend him 100 percent! Thank you, Scott!

I took my laptop in to Geeks In Pheonix, Scott diagnosed and fixed the issue in less than 15 minutes and I was out the door! He walked me through what he was doing and answered all my questions. All he asked for was a review! I definitely recommend Geeks In Pheonix to anyone for their computer repair needs.

I highly recommend Geeks of Phoenix to anyone who is in need of a computer analysis/repair. As a touring content creator, having my laptop work to its best performance is necessary. While in town on tour, my laptop had coffee spilt on it. Geeks of Phoenix promptly accepted my request to have my laptop looked at. Scott assisted me in the correct tests to run and steps to take to ensure the operation of my laptop. Professional. Efficient. I highly recommend Scott and Geeks of Phoenix.

I had a very positive experience with this business. I took my PC in for an SSD replacement and cleaning and he had it done a day ahead of schedule. Price for services was very reasonable. I will definitely be using this service again in the future. Highly recommend.

My laptop shutdown on me late one day in December. I found Scott and called, a bit panicked since all my work was there. He let me bring my computer over that afternoon and had it all fixed by the next morning. Again this week I had a problem and he was able to diagnose it for me quickly. Why go anywhere else!

So lucky to have been referred to Scott. My puppy knocked a drink into my laptop. Of course I had no backup, but Scott was able to recover all my files from the hard drive. His charge was very reasonable and his service was fast!

As a new PC gamer I thought maintaining my gaming PC would be relatively easy: download games, complete system updates, and download/install the most recent drivers and you'll be set, boy was I wrong. Upon having run into a few issues myself and not being able to remedy the issues after researching forums, I decided to explore yelp for some computer repair shops, I found Geeks in Phoenix and thought I'd give them a try. Scott has been my go-to for all of my PC needs!

He brings everything you would want to the table, professionalism, years of knowledge and experitise, and excellent communication skills. Every time I've called Geeks in Phoenix, Scott's listened to my issues, communicates them back to me to make sure we're on the same page, and then he always given me a call with either an update or to let me know my system is ready to go!

In the handful times I've worked with Scott he's always been a trustworthy and reliable resource when I have computer troubles and he's always delivered on making sure my system is exactly where I want and need it to be. I would highly encourage anyone with computer trouble/issues to reach out to Geeks in Phoenix. I myself will be returning to Geeks in Phoenix for any future issues I may encounter and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend my family members to Geeks in Phoenix as well. Thanks Geeks in Phoenix!

Scott was truly a god-send. After buying some RAM that I should have looked harder about compatibility with my motherboard, I ended up with a bricked motherboard and a LOT of frustration. I built my PC originally, but didn't have the time to do it all over again with a new motherboard. In rode Scott! I called and explained the situation and he advised the likely problem and gave a very fair price and timeline to rebuild my PC from scratch.

He got me in AN HOUR LATER and had it back to me THE NEXT DAY. Truly unbelievable and saved the situation from becoming even more disastrous. Thanks Scott! Would call him again in a heartbeat.

Scott was great. Had a problem with a loud buzzing in my new PC i bought from iBuyPower. He diagnosed a faulty liquid cooling system and replaced the system with a new one in a few hours. Couldnt say enough good things!

I had an older laptop that I could not get into. Took to the Geeks in Phoenix and within a day, not only did they get in to the laptop they reset and loaded the updated software and it's like a new computer. I would recommend these guys to everyone. Also the cost was minimal. Thanks guys.

My computer kept blue-screening. I finally called Geeks in Phoenix, and Scott was able to make time for me that very day. He was efficient and professional, and addressed both hardware and software issues. He explained everything he was doing to make sure I understood and would be able to do my own computer care. He walked me through buying the necessary part, reassured me that it would be okay, and sent me home without charging me, despite me taking up around an hour of his time since they offer free basic diagnostics. I recommend Geeks in Phoenix highly -- kind, comprehensive, efficient, and effective. Thank you Scott!

My daughter built a gaming desktop from scratch, but then it wouldn't start! So we went to Geeks in Phoenix. They were quickly available, and were able to fix the problem same day! Not only that, my daughter was walked through the work that needed to be done to fix it, so she got a good lesson on her computer! I'm very happy (and so is she). I would very highly recommend them - to the point that I think this is my first google recommendation!

Had a very positive experience at Scott's establishment. He successfully replaced the battery in a laptop in about half an hour, and charged only a little more than half of what the Best Buy Geeks would have charged. It always feels good when you can support a small local business instead of a huge conglomerate! If you have a computer issue, I definitely recommend trying Geeks in Phoenix.

Scott, I cannot thank you enough. You got straight to working on my PC after it had a booting issue that I would normally be able to fix but you went above and beyond to diagnose my PC and find every issue with it! I would recommend this to any friend with a PC issue, everything is done with patience, with accurate diagnosis, and to perfection. My PC runs like brand new now! I will definitely have this business as my go to spot for any of my PC issues!

Wow! SO PLEASED! Scott was fast and professional and gave me a FREE DIAGNOSTIC to determine that my laptop only needed a new charger. Then he recommended a path to get the power system running well that didn't involve any monetary gain for himself. He seemed very honest and is a nice guy: I will definitely be back next time I need some help with my PC!

I found Scott on Yelp, based on his reviews. He works out of his home and is very professional and really seems to know what he's talking about. My computer has been running very slow and he did several diagnostic tests to see what was going on. After all of his time, and basically deciding that it's just time for a new computer, he didn't even charge me a fee (I did tip him). I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs computer help.

I have a complex, one off, high-end gaming computer, used not for gaming but large video editing projects.and had confusing problems with it, restarting after shut-down, slow fire-up, loss of ability to print through wi-fi, and NOTHING acted as it should. So, called Scott at Geeks-in-Phoenix. He experienced more 'quirks' and did his usual in-depth analysis.

The result was that he isolated an odd failure in the motherboard, unlike anything I could find from advisers on the net. I have system the system back now, for what seemed to me a very fair price.with new and better motherboard, more and more modern ports (USB 3.1, lightning, and power-on USB).faster C: drive. My 3 internal work drives were put back in working order with no loss of data (huge relief). The system is faster than ever, and all programs and connections came up instantly. SUMMARY: You can't ask for more.

Can not recommend Scott and Geeks in Phoenix enough! He went above and beyond throughout the whole process to fix my laptop- communicating whenever there was an important update or asking what course of action I'd like to proceed with, price matching a part to get a lower price and even making sure I had all the information for the warranty of the new part so I wouldn't have to face any hassle in the future.

It was also only about 24 hours that my laptop was fixed! It's running like new now and I can pretty much guarantee I would have paid an arm and a leg more at a different place. Thank you for your awesome service Scott!

Scott really saved me! My computer was completely locked out with ransomware. Thought I was going to have to buy a new system and just lose everything. Instead he got it cleaned up and running again without losing one thing. And since I forgot to write this review for about a year now, I can say the repairs have held up! Highly recommend and would definitely use again!

Scott is as knowledgeable and honest as they come. I had a problem with my laptop that he diagnosed and fixed within about 2 minutes. It was such a simple fix that he didn't charge me. I would have been happy to pay him, and fully intended to pay him, but he would't hear of it. He is outstanding on repairs, honest, and would recommend him without reservation. Thanks Scott!

I was having trouble with my computer and was done trying to diagnosis it myself. I went on yelp and found Geeks in Phoenix. I went there and my problem was diagnosed in 2 minutes. No charge. Thank you so much! I will recommend you to my family and friends!

Easiest, fastest, friendliest service. I had a simple repair to my laptop that I could not figure out for the life of me. Scott fixed it no problem. He's very responsive via email and provided as much information as he could prior to even looking at my laptop. I'm very happy with the service I received and 100% would use Geeks in Phoenix again for computer repair. Thanks Scott!

Scott is the best! From a person who has built her own desktops, Scott answered all the questions I had about my problem. And then he showed me the additional diagnostics he had for my laptop hard drive failure, I was very impressed. I will continue to use Geeks in Phoenix for all my PC repairs. Very fair price, very fast turnaround, and everything, I mean everything is checked before it leaves his hands. Awesome job!

Scott took the time to do research and determine what was wrong before giving me a blanket solution and quote. Turned out the issue was a little more tricky than we thought, but we figured out what was needed before I even brought the computer over to him. Got the work done right away, reasonably priced, great service.

If you're reading this, you probably alot like me, struggling with a computer problem. Look no further than Scott at Geeks in Phoenix to set everything right. Scott completely restored my computer to functionality; and, he SAVED MY DATA. He diagnosed bad sectors on the hard drive where OS files are stored; copied the drive, re-installed windows, downloaded drivers, and restored my data. Scott's bill for the job was lower than I expected. Scott had my computer for only 1 day. I am a very satisfied customer and will never go anywhere else. david@apexautoaz.com

Scott is awesome. I took my laptop that had a new motherboard that I added. My problem was that I glt power but no screen. I explained to Scott what I had did to the laptop. He totally listened without trying to verbally solve it before he could see the computer for himself OMG. he calls and says that I did not push in the memory which is why I kept getting power but no picture. I waited two years for a 5 minute analysis ( It was the next business day. ) Hehehe He so rocks. Excellent service. Thank you Scott!
