John was helpful, friendly. My laptop was running slow and I felt needed a review. I felt John was honest and worked in my best interest. Was speedy and good follow up on status. Laptop works great and would definitely go back...actually my husband wants to take his in now also. The store dog Guliver....is too cute also!

John was excellent to work with for my laptop repair. We dropped it off and over the next week he worked through multiple issues, kept us updated on his progress and recommendations along the way, gave us options on the hard drive we needed to purchase to complete the fix, and our computer was as good as new for a cost-effective solution. Would definitely recommend!

I was looking for a place to repair my old Dell laptop computer that was having so many issues. After doing a search, I found Imperial Computer Solutions. The reason I went to this particular shop was because of the amazing reviews I kept reading about John, the resident expert there.Sure enough, everything was outstanding about this place and John: the quick service, the professionalism in both the repair of my old computer and the selling to me of a new one, the friendliness of the resident little dog, and the amazing free food. (OK, everything is absolutely true except for the food!)I would highly recommend Imperial Computer Solutions as an excellent place to repair or purchase a computer.And when it comes to computers, John is “the man!”

Highly recommended. John was very friendly and knowledgeable. I was a random walk-in with a power issue on my computer and he had it diagnosed and fixed within a few minutes! I am definitely going to contact him again with any other issues I have in the future.

I have been dealing with John at this location for over 10 years. He has never let me down. His technical knowledge is amazing and he has been able to solve problems with data recovery that has stumped others. He always goes above and beyond and makes recommendations that I didnt even know I needed to help keep our computers running smooth and safe.I have found him to be a man of integrity and have sent many family and friends to him over the years.If you happen to have a SquareTrade warranty issue rather than sending it in as they suggest tell them you would prefer to have John repair it for you and submit the bill to them. Its a win-win for everyone involved.Overall, John provides excellent service at a fair price and can be trusted. Dont hesitate to bring your equipment to him. You are sure to be pleased with the experience.

Having a previous good experience with this business years before before, I came in to the store with an inherited device that was very out of date looking for help. The tech Guru, John, that assisted me was EXTREMELY helpful in educating me on the issues and costs before any work was done and kept me informed on the progress of our overall solution. I am very happy with my experience and would recommend this business to anyone. These are one of the good guys!

John helped so much when my daughter called and then I did as well and we took my computer right in as I had been hacked the day before, by someone telling me they were from Comcast. I was devastated as a Senior Citizen thinking great now I have to by a new computer because someone in India called and lured me in with a con job. Thank you John you were so helpful. You deserve 2 raises!

Review №31

Great service and very knowledgeable. I took an old laptop in to John and he was able to get it up and running and I did not think it had any hope.When that laptop finally died after a couple of years, I called John again and he told me about a great deal on a new computer at a different store.I bought that computer (it was a great deal, thank you John) and took the new computer in to John, to have him load everything on it from my old laptop and put anti virus protection on it. I am not a computer techy person, so it is super helpful to have a knowledgeable, trustworthy person to call when I have computer issues. Thank you Imperial Computer Solutions!

Review №35

This will be my first ever Google review ever but I had to let others know how great John at Imperial Computer Solutions is.I had a battery issue which caused my computer to crash. Initially, when I called on Friday at 2 I was told to drop it off Monday morning but when I informed John of my need to get my data off my computer for a work project he told me it was ok to drop it off that afternoon. I drove down there thinking I was only going to be dropping it off so it would get looked at first thing Monday but when I arrived John said he would take 10 minutes to try and figure it out. He ended up spending longer than 10 minutes on my issue and thankfully got my computer running temporarily without a battery so that I was able to attend to my work over the weekend. The new battery came in the following Tuesday and my computer is back and working like new.I cannot say how much I appreciate the fact that John was willing and able to fix my computer the same day. It is not an understatement to say that he turned one of the worst days I have had in a few years into a much better day. It was a blessing to see that there are people out there that will take the extra time in their jobs to help someone and I cannot thank John enough.I highly recommend that if you have any computer issues at all to call John at Imperial Computer Solutions.

Review №39

Took my laptop in after an upgrade fiasco to get a second opinion. Within a day had a response that the computer was dead as i suspected. I was then informed that I wouldnt need to pay anything as he was unable to resolve any issue for me. Spent the afternoon helping me look over some new laptop options as well as removing any resell-able parts from my laptop for me to sell/reuse at my discretion. Apparently i still owe nothing. Professionalism at its finest.

I chose Imperial Computer Solutions because of all the 5 star reviews on Google and they were not wrong! John discussed options with me and kept in touch as he worked on my computer. He ran into unexpected issues, but did not charge me more for his extra time. He also took the time to walk me through the updates that were completed and made sure that I had the programs I needed. I even received a follow up email 2 weeks later to make sure everything was working as expected. I would definitely recommend Imperial Computer Solutions to anyone who needs a professional to help with their computer.

I work at home almost exclusively on my laptop computer. Over the weekend the computer stopped working so I brought it into John at Imperial Computer Solutions and explained my dilemma. He looked at it right away and diagnosed a corrupt hard drive. By the next day he had installed a new solid state hard drive and got the computer working again. He stayed late to help me recover the software necessary to me to be able to complete my work and it is up and running faster than ever! Thank you ICS and John for taking the time to understand my situation and getting me up and running again by the next day!

I was very impressed with Johns service and expertise with computers. I came in with hard drive issues (my computer was very slow). John put in a new SSD hard drive and now it responds more quickly than when it was brand new. It took a day to transfer the data and replace the hard drive and the service was very affordable. I will be bringing any future computer issues to Imperial and will be recommending it to family and friends. John was very personable and willing to explain and share his knowledge.

The charger for my laptop died and I needed to find out if the problem was with the computer or the charging cord. John had a like cord for my laptop and plugged it in to test my laptop. It turned out the issue was the cord and he directed me toward the easiest way to purchase a new cord online. John was courteous and efficient and am thankful he was able to help me immediately after visiting his location. I will certainly be visiting him again should I have any further issues or concerns.

I’m a reoccurring customer at Imperial Computer Solutions and I’m always left with my questions answered, my computer fixed and a great customer service experience. We’ve put in a new hard drive, refurbished a toddler-torn computer and had questions answered on data storage. The other day I stopped in with a question, John suggested a solution (an external hard drive housing to make an old hard drive more accessible) and even found the product for me on Amazon. I bought it for under $20 from Amazon and John told me to stop back in when it arrived and he would put it together. Done and done. You can’t beat these guys!
