I had accidentally dropped a hard drive I had that was my sole back-up of over 10+ years of photos and career documents and was devastated that everything was lost for good! I tried going to a few of the big-brand tech stores for help, but no one was useful at all - luckily I found Sherlock Data Recovery!I met with Ephraim he was very helpful and explained to me the inner workings of my drive and why my problem occurred. He was able to recover everything I asked for and even helped me yet again when the replacement drive I had gotten wound up being faulty!Im so very grateful for him and his talent! Definitely reach out to him if you feel like you have impossible data recovery needs!

Ephraim did a great job. I contacted him last minute and he was able to see me right away. I opted to pay more for him to expedite the job since my crashed hard drive had vital data on it. he was always communicative and had good news for me, recovering everything I needed on Day two.thanks!

He is the best at what he does!! I had two SD cards that were damaged and he was able to recover everything from both. If you’re looking for a sign to go to him, this is it! Go!

Once again, Ephraim & Sherlock Data Recovery came to my rescue. I had taken a video of my husband’s induction into the Hall of Fame for his athleticism at Greenwich High School and due to the age of my video camera, was unable to finalize it in order to be able to replay it in our DVD player.I had tried a couple of local vendors in our area and was informed that they were unable to transfer it. Feeling almost defeated, I suddenly remembered from several years ago, how Sherlock Data Recovery was able to recover 99% my husband’s genealogical records, documents and pictures when his laptop crashed and all information was lost and no one in our area had the equipment or the knowledge to assist us. So I, again, called Ephraim and told him of my dilemma and he informed me that he was up to the challenge and for me to send him the mini disk along with the video camera and charger to him. To make a long story short, after many stumbling blocks along the way and several phone calls from Ephraim to apprise me of the progress he was making, he was able to complete the job. I can’t impress on anyone enough, how comforting and informative Ephraim was along the way. I give Sherlock Data Recovery 5 stars for a job well done and Ephraim an A+++ for basically holding my hand again, every step of the way, and rising up, meeting and surpassing this difficult challenge. Thank you Ephraim from the bottom of my heart!Vicky FuscaldoNew Canaan, CT

Ephraim is exceptionally knowledgeable, very accommodating, and a gentleman. He is reassuring and calming, as was the case when I thought I lost everything in that little black external hard drive we call our lives. Ephraim was able to retrieve and rebuild those files that I thought were lost after my original external HD blew up. I will use his service again when given the opportunity. If you need real help, Ephraim is there. Thanks again Ephraim. A pleasure to work with A++

My old iPhone had issues and wouldnt turn back on again, and since I did not have a backup, I was told that all of the content in my phone would be lost, including the decade long of photos/memories that I had in there. Fortunately, Ephraim was able to recover all of my photos and videos. I would recommend him to anyone who needs to recover any sort of data like the example in my case. Thanks again, Ephraim!

I accidentally dropped my laptop on the floor and ended up damaging the hard drive. I was concerned that I would lose all my files and folders that I hadnt backed up for months. Called Ephraim and he assured me that he would do his best to recover everything I needed. After several weeks, Ephraim contacted and informed me that all the files and folders that were important were recovered successfully and could be transferred to an external drive. I was elated and relieved. Thank you Ephraim for the great job!

Mr. Sherlock was very professional and polite with his service. I came along his page while looking for a data recovery service. My external hard drive died on me while editing a video. He was able to not only open up a hard drive that was very difficult to open up, but he also hand it a day BEFORE my birthday! Woo! I am very happy with his service and will be providing him my service in the future. I encourage anyone who’s looking to recover data quickly. He is amazing and very patient.

Sherlock Data Recovery did an excellent job recovering my data from a 10 year old hard drive. I compared multiple locations, and Sherlock Data Recovery was not only competitively priced, but also incredibly effective. I was able to retain all of my data, despite extensive damage. Without a doubt, I will use Sherlock Data Recovery again in the future for any data recovery needs.

Ephraim is amazing.... I was almost in tears when I mistakenly deleted an important video from my SD card. I called Sherlock and Ephraim asked me to stop by immediately. Within a day I received a call back from him informing me that he had recovered my file. His prices were amazing and he was also very kind and easy to talk to. If I could give him 10 stars for the most excellent service I would. I would very highly recommend him to any colleague, friend or family in the future.

Ephriam was very nice and a good communicator. He was able to recover 10 years of files that I had saved on a usb flash drive. I bumped my the drive really hard and it would no longer connect to my laptop. I found Ephriam’s business online. He communicated the price and time table upfront. I would use his services again.

The people who work here really know what they’re doing, even in uncommon circumstances they’ll do their best to recover your data. If you need to recover data and you don’t see a way to do it on your own, this is definitely a good last resort. If it’s still possible that your data can be recovered, this is probably the place to do it.Make sure to call ahead for an appointment because the place is run out of an apartment, it’s not a shop you can walk into.

At first I thought I was being robbed until I got convinced (where I don’t trust anyone) to give them a opportunity even by being turned down from many other multi-national companies. Sherlock data Recovery saved me files worth millions. I will highly recommend this company to everyone out there!!!

Worst customer service experience in my life.Disgusting attitude since I walked in the door.Paid $1,200 for him to recover a quarter of the data on my hard drive.He did recover the data but I regret not going to Geek Squad.I had this work done over 1 year ago. I called to get 2 hardrives that I left there (which I dreaded doing knowing what I would walk into) and I got the worst service anyone could imagine. He cursed me out, without cursing me out because it was over 1 year ago.I wasnt going to write a review but when I got the additional nasty attitude, I had.

I had a 3 TB hard drive that would not turn on. I had many memories. Photos and videos on this drive and I was terrified that I wouldn’t be able to get this footage back. Ephriam assures me he would try his best to get everything back and to keep a positive mindset. After a week of working in my drive he was able to recover everything. I’ve never been so relieved. If you are looking for someone trustworthy to recover your data I highly recommend Sherlock recovery

I had a flash drive that basically crashed. I had important data, both documents and photos that I desperately needed to be recovered. I searched Google and came across this one and called. In less than three days, he recovered 99.9% of my data. His hourly rate is very reasonable. Customer service was excellent. I highly recommend this company for an data recovery needs.

Review №34

As I approached the last weeks of the school year, my flash drive all of a sudden stopped being recognized by my computer with no indication of damage. I tried everything to get it fixed on my own with no avail. I was starting to doubt that my flash drive was salvageable which brought panic to me as I had not saved the content of the flash drive anywhere else. My husband decided to seek help from Sherlock Data Recovery as he had really great reviews and we put all of our hope in him. It took longer than I hoped (maybe due to Covid-19 and higher volume of data recovery issues, I’m not sure), but at the end of it all Ephraim came through and recovered every single document in the flash drive. I was finally able to breathe in relief after saving these documents multiple times of course. Thank you, Ephraim, for saving years of work and allowing me to have a summer vacation. I would have had to spend all summer re-typing numerous reports in preparation for the next school year.

One of my hard drives took a fall off my desk and wasn’t reading. I took it to Ephraim and the process couldn’t have gone better. He explained the mechanics of the hard drive and the probable issues when it takes a fall. He kept me updated with the diagnostic and recovery as he worked. And he was able to recover 100% of the drive’s content quickly. Outstanding service, satisfied customer!

Ephraim will certainly be responding to this review as he pays a lot of attention to his online presence, which is carefully cultivated to portray a decent business. But I am writing this review to warn others to avoid this indecent and unprofessional service. Please go to another provider to recover your data.After going to recover a USB drive and given a receipt stating a quote would be provided before any work was done, I was notified the next day that the files were recovered and that I owed 400 dollars. After calling other providers, I was told the price is excessive and usually costs around 200. In addition, he texted me a personal photo of one of my family members, which shows that he opens up and reviews files. Which is egregious.I asked for my drive to be returned, and stated that I do not want the files, but he refused to give it back until I paid him. I contacted the police to file a claim and after a 15 minute conversation with two officers, was told that I am not the first person to be calling about Ephraim.I am proceeding to file a claim in civil court, as I just want my drive back at this point, which he is refusing to give back.I would not trust this man with your personal data. Go to a professional service with a storefront location, as this practice is shady and unethical.

Review №39

At the beginning of October I took my phone to Sherlock data recovery after reading some pleasant reviews on google. My iphone was stuck on the Apple logo and I had pictures on it that I had not yet backed up. I looked around the New York area for places that specialized in data recovery. After getting quotes from a few places I decided to take my phone to another company before going to Sherlock as their prices were significantly cheaper. When they told me their was nothing they could do I then decided my last hope was Sherlock.My initial meeting with Ephraim was very pleasant he took my phone, gave me a receipt, and sent me off with some hope he would be able to recover my data. A week went by and I called him for an update, he told me due to corona things move a lot slower and that I should give him 7-10 days. I thought that was fine and at that point I would wait for him to reach out to me. About 2 weeks went by and still nothing so I thought I should definitely call. He told me that there’s a very small chance he would be able to recover my data but I should give him a few days, I said ok. I call him after a few days and he tells me the exact same thing! At that point I realized that there’s no point trying to recover the data and I should just pick up my phone. That’s when things took a turn.He was being very defensive saying he can’t give back my phone till next week, starts telling me to be “patient”(like sir, you’ve had my phone for 3 weeks I’ve been patient enough), and overall speaking to me in a very rude and condescending tone. I then start to pressure him into giving me an exact date I can get my phone and he wouldn’t give me one just kept saying “I need to talk my partner”. I couldn’t believe it, I was simply asking for my property back! I started to get nervous that I wouldn’t get my phone back and read his “Yelp” reviews something I hadn’t done first time around and boy were those bad and made me super anxious. It took a few days of repeatedly calling him and pressuring him to give me my phone back till I was I finally able to get it.I asked for my deposit back because his policy is “deposit back if we cant recover your data”, he then starts going off on me about how I should’ve told him I took my phone to someone else first. Ok well, hold your horses buddy I had NO IDEA that was pivotal Info! so decided not to press him about it since it was just $35.Till this day I still do not know why it was so hard for me to simply pick up my phone. If he had simply been honest with my he would find I’m a very understanding person. I honestly believe he did put a lot of work in trying to recover my pictures, but their was no need for the rudeness and the secrecy And for that I will not comeback and cannot leave 5 stars. Do what you want, but this was my experience with him.

Ephraim was referred to me by one of my great friends from 1800Fix for data recovery. We lost a our client list along with other important files that would have cost us tens of thousands of dollars in lost. Ephraim was able to save us from the lost by helping us recover all the list and contents at a fraction of the cost. If you need a data recovery expert Ephraim is your guy!

Ephraim was able to rescue crucial data from an integrated SSD drive on a brand new HP laptop for a reasonable price. Due to some confusion and miscommunication on my part it took a few days longer than he initially quoted, but he was patient, professional, and thorough- and local. He was also very attentive to concerns about the pandemic. Thank you, again, Ephraim.

My external hard drive was not responsive and apparently had a major crash. I reached out to Sherlock Data Recovery via the website, filled out the contact info and Ephraim called within few minutes! I was so surprised since it was on July 4th! I was freaking out since all of my company data were in the hard drive. Ephraim saw that how urgent this matter was me and offered to help even during the 4th holiday weekend! Ephraim is a true professional and worked promptly to recover ALL of my data that I needed. It was incredible and I am so grateful for his great and superb service!

I went to Ephraim after doing some research on data recovery providers.A lot of what I found with others is that you get to ship out your device, or it is shipped for you so that other partners get to fix the problem. Then you get back what you shipped by mail. I was discouraged about doing this specially when nobody gave me big hopes of significant data recovery.My Iphone 6 had died entirely. I was told by someone else who looked at my phone that it was a mother board problem. I had stored in my phone 6 years worth of memories with loved ones. I could not stomach loosing this very cherished data.I went straight to Ephraim after reading about his reputation and after I had a chat on the phone with him, I knew he would be able to help recover most of my data. He was also local to me, which was rather convenient.Ephraim seems to work from what appears to be his apartment in a NYC upper east side building. He welcomed me in his office/apartment. He took all the necessary precautions related to COVID, then he took my information, gave an invoice and took my very cherished phone.After I left his office, It took about one week before he sent me information of the recovered pictures and videos (he was able to recover all the pics and videos on the phone). Within two or 3 days of his text message, I met him at his bank to pay him in cash. He stated he gets to be payed first before he can further put the data in a thumb drive and make it available to me. He takes money transfers direct to his bank account. It was easier for me to pay him in person in cash.After I payed him he stated that he needed a few more days to put the data in the thumb drive. I called him about after a week and he told me my package was ready, to come and pick it up. He had offered to ship to me, but I wasnt going to deal with the mail service. I felt more secure going to pick it up to his office.He gave me an appointment time, I showed up at the time we agreed and I got my stuff from his concierge.There were some documents in an app which we talked about during our first meeting and was also indicated in the invoice as items to be recovered. I addressed it a second time when we met to pay him. He didnt recover this. I may have not stressed it as much. He focused on my pictures which was by far the most critical things to recover.In the end he recovered about 80gigs of data and charged $500. It was costly but I didnt have the patience to shop around with someone who may or may not be able to recover my stuff and throw it in the mail. I went straight to the best and I got what I wanted.If you want the highest chances to get your data recovered, Ephraim is your guy. Thanks Ephraim! I am a happy camper!

Ephraim did a great job at recovering my data. My hard drive crashed and I had not backed up data for about 4 months. I lost pictures, family videos, and very important documents. Ephraim was available on Saturday and I brought my PC to him within an hour of contacting him. He restored the important data files first and I was able to pick up on Monday. He was then able to restore my remaining files, pictures and videos within the next few days. My information was is multiple folders, but Ephraim was able to locate the files and save them to an external hard drive that he sold to me for a very reasonable price. I then purchased a new internal hard drive and window recovery disc and Ephraim got my PC up and running for a very reasonable service charge. I was able to pick up everything by the following weekend. Ephraim is personable and helpful and his fees are very fair -- much less than the big companies charge. I highly recommend. I hope I never need data restoration services again, but if I do I now know where to go

Ephraim was extremely helpful in getting me all of my data back. This was the first time I have done data recovery and he made me feel comfortable. There was a slight scheduling issue with me receiving the data back in time but other then that everything was amazing. I’m definitely going back to him to get all my recoveries done. I have a bunch of hard drives that have failed me through the years and I will have ephraim look at them to see what we can do. Definitely recommending my friends to him.

When my systems went down and I had critical projects to complete, Sherlock Data Recovery did everything humanly possible to get us back on track. In a world where real customer service means that you leave a message and hope for the best, SDR picks up the phone and makes things happen. For data recovery they are fast, efficient, knowledgeable and fairly priced.

Review №52

Had a 5TB Lacie die on me on a trip to Paris. Took it to Sherlock Data Recovery and dealt with Ephraim who initially gave me a fair price for the trouble. After further investigation he realized the extra amount of work it would take to attempt to recover as much of the data as he possibly could. We agreed to a fair price that almost doubled the initial amount, but still was below what others would charge. He kept in touch with me throughout the process, and after 2 weeks I came to pick up my drive. He was able to recover about two thirds of the data, and unfortunately the drive could not be read by my Mac. He assured me that all the data is still intact, and took the extra time to show me on his PC. I can’t thank Ephraim enough for the extra time he took, and his persistence. Here’s hoping I may be able to retrieve the data and finally be able to read my video files on my Mac.

Although I have not used Sherlock Data Recovery for recovering lost computer data or pictures, I did lose my wallet in Central Park a couple weeks ago and before I even knew it was missing, Ephraim found it and went above and beyond to locate me to return it. I believe this is act of kindness is a testament to his superior character and integrity. He wouldnt even let us pay him for his trouble. In my mind, this act of kindness and others like it have become rare and I was most fortunate that Ephraim found it and was willing to take time out of his busy day to return my wallet and everything in it. Ephraim, thank you for your honesty and diligence and may your integrity be rewarded ten-fold in your business and personal life. Warmest regards, CJ from SC

I am more than pleased to recommend Sherlock Data Recovery. My son gave me 2 external drives that failed and were no longer recognized. These contained years of family history including precious moments and memories. To say the least, he was considerably upset. I offered to help him recover whatever was possible. I looked up every data recovery service on Google, with an eye for customer satisfaction reviews. It took some time, but I couldnt help but notice there was only one that stood out - Sherlock Data Recovery. Luckily I was also able to personally deliver the drives and meet Ephraim, the owner. I discovered not only an expert and a scholar but.a concerned gentleman of fine character. The results of his effort were much more than expected. All the data from both drives were fully recovered. You cannot imagine how happy and thrilled my son and i were. Again - if you need help - dont give up hope - get in touch with Ephraim at Sherlock Data Recovery. I am sure you will be more than pleased too.

My external hard drive fell and I couldnt access any of my backup files. After more than a year, I took it to Sherlock Data Recovery Services because there was an important information that I needed from my hard drive. I wasnt sure if this was going to be possible. Within 24hrs, all my data was fully recovered and transferred to another hard drive. I was very satisfied with the overall services and friendly approach of Mr Ephraim. I highly recommend his services to anyone who has similar data recovery needs. Edmond

I cant say enough good things about Sherlock Data Recovery. Ephraim is a wonderful man who will go above and beyond to help you. Hes a very empathetic business owner who will work with you throughout to get your data back.I accidentally dropped my external hard drive on the ground and was unable to load my files. In a panic, I googled for data recovery services and found Ephraim. He was immediately helpful. In fact, he wouldve allowed me come drop off the hard drive close to midnight had I been able to make it!Losing your data is devastating for anyone. As a small video business owner, loosing all of my raw footage was crippling. Ephraim worked with me and my budgets to help find a solution. Hell update you throughout the process through phone calls and texts to help ease your mind.Im very thankful that I found this company! Dont hesitate to contact Ephraim if you are having any issues with your data!UPDATED REVIEW: 2-24-2020Ephraim continues to be my go-to when it comes to data recovery. After the past few years of zero incidents.. I recently came home from a video shoot with a corrupted SD card. Upon realization, I called Ephraim right away.He was able to recover all of the data! While also working alongside an additional software partner to ensure that the full quality of my files were recovered. My files were 4k 8bit .mov extensions that added up to 20GB of raw data. Within two weeks, I had all of the data returned to me and was able to successfully deliver to my client.Im so thankful for this man! He has helped me in immeasurable ways. Hes a kind and empathetic man who will work with your budget. Someone available at all hours of the day to work with you. The personal touch truly matters during these times.Whenever you have this situation occur, youre left with a pit in your stomach. Youll do anything at that point to fix the problem. Your work and reputation rely on it. So do not hesitate! Call Ephraim the second that you have an issue. He continues to be my guy and the only one I trust in these scenarios.Thank you Ephraim!!!

We used Sherlock Data Recovery to retrieve files from two SATA drives from our company server that went bad after 9 years. Ephraim was amazing, he was very knowledgeable, friendly, and very helpful. He was able to obtain our data within hours and returned it to us the same day. He was very reasonably priced and we would strongly recommend this company.

Ephraim is a hero! He worked quickly to help me with my USB, which was severely corrupted, and performed a very tedious and thorough recovery. He was very informative about the process, why it happened, how to prevent it, and a pleasure to simply talk with. Very thankful for his help! Thank you Ephraim!

I need immediate data recovery and my needs were met. Prompt and courteous service. I strongly recommend, particularly if you need data recover from a Seagate device.

Sherlock Data recovery was able to recover my precious memories from my exteral hard drive. Price was very reasonable. He was easy to contact. My only issue was not set business hours but that might work out better for some people, but not for me. I would recommend Ephraim to anyone if they need data recovered.

I had a great experience working the Ephraim at Sherlock Data Recovery! I was desperate when my hard drive died. I called around and got a lot of different prices - but I wasnt happy with any of them. But after speaking with Ephraim, he was the only one that seemed to take a personal interest in my case. He did an evaluation of my hard drive, quoted me a fair price, and within days had recovered all my photos and videos! Throughout the process he always kept me informed of status and did it for the price he quoted with no surprises. Highly recommended for anyone needing data recovery!

Recovered all of my data quickly! I was getting married and needed all of my music from my external hard drive in less than a week. Sherlock Data Recovery was not only able to recover my music but all my data from the almost 10 year old external hard drive and get it back to me before my deadline. Highly recommended.

Sherlock Data Recovery provides technical excellence and quality customer service.Roughly one week ago I was in the midst of taking an examination required to be a licensed practitioner in my profession. Before I could upload my examination, my computer crashed. When I called a popular computer repair squad I was told there was nothing they could do for me and certainly nothing they could do in the time-frame I required. When I spoke to Ephraim at Sherlock Data Recovery Services, he told me there are no guarantees in data recovery but that he was confident that he could identify my harddrive and sort through the information stored there so that I stood a chance at sending my examination to the relevant professional licensing association.When other people told me the task was impossible Ephraim gave me hope. More importantly he gave me success as he diligently worked on my computer overnight and through an afternoon to locate my examination files. I was able to send my examination file to the licensing association before the deadline. Throughout the process he kept me updated on everything. When I was difficult, he was kind and reassuring.I confidently recommend Ephraim and Sherlock Data Recovery Services. When you are living in a nightmare you will not feel comfortable unless you have a true expert, and Ephraim is an expert that thrives under pressure. Trusting him was the best decision I have ever made in acquiring computer repair services.

Ephraim Hirschberg is a miracle worker. Ephraim rescued all of my precious memories. So many years of videos, and photos of my children growing up were almost lost on my Western Digital Passport 2TB external harddrive that suddenly malfunctioned. I sent the drive out to Sherlock Data Recovery after speaking to Ephraim...and how grateful am I that I did!! Ephraim saved all of my data and was able to have it all back to me on the same day we agreed on. There is no price tag for getting all of your memories back, but I am just glad that I found Ephraim who made us one very happy family!!!

Over the years I have used several data recovery services both local and across the country to recover data from failed hard drives for my clients. In my interaction with these companies I have never had the opportunity to speak directly with the engineer who would perform the recovery process. It was always through a third person. With Sherlock Data Recovery Service I had the pleasure to interact one on one with the engineer who provided me with personal attention to the specific needs of my case and recovered exactly what I needed. If you are looking to get your data back then call Sherlock Data Recovery Service. You will not be disappointed!!!

Sherlock data recovery was able to quickly recover my pictures from a dead iPhone. Apple wasnt even able to recover the data but Sherlock was able to.I highly recommend them. They did a fantastic job.

I was very happy to have my data fully restored (with file structure intact). The hours were flexible which was very helpful, since it was a particularly busy time of year for me with work travel. It was not cheap, at $800+, which ended up about the same price as the company the Apple Store had recommended - but they gave the quote upfront, whereas this quote only happened after the computer was dropped off. It would have been helpful to know to bring an empty hard drive to the initial drop-off, as that would have saved an extra trip to drop off an empty hard drive (the other option was to pay for an empty hard drive the owner already had on hand), and there was some miscommunication and misunderstanding about the timing of payment - in my industry, you are paid after delivery, but in this industry, it seems that you pay before receiving the files. I suppose that makes sense given the nature of the business, without an extended or contractual relationship, but it was a surprise. All in all, I would use this service again, but I really hope I dont have to.

First and foremost, I want to highly recommend Ephraim to anyone who needs a quick and painful data recovery.It’s a pleasure to deal with someone so personable and understanding. Losing data can be a pain, but he makes sure you understand the process and the inner workings of the whole data recovery ordeal.It’s a breath of fresh air to have a real person that actually DOES the job, than with a salesman that sells you someone else’s services.He recovered data from an OLD SCSI drive, from an old HP workstation from the 90s, the drive was a 73 GB SCSI Seagate that one day decided to stop working with all my data on it.Sherlock Data Recovery lives up to its name and recovered 100% of my files!Once again, highly recommend !Thank you Ephraim, I’ll tell my friends!

I had an excellent experience with Ephraim who I found to be honest, responsive, helpful and very knowledgeable about data recovery and data storage solutions in general. He recovered my data and also gave me valuable advice on how to avoid catastrophic data losses in the future. Something every business or individual could benefit from. You wont be disappointed in his service. I would definitely recommend him.

Ephraim spent a lot of time and energy on my case. My partner and I dumped all of our photos and videos on an external hard drive, and in our recent move, we lost the hard drive. I brought my computers and memory cards to him to see what, if anything he could recover from what we had already deleted. He was able to recover a few of our most recent videos, and although he could not recover everything, I feel confident that if he couldnt do it, then it wasnt possible. I appreciate the extra time and energy he gave to our problem.

After almost losing hope in recovering my data, I came across this company, Sherlock Data Recovery, while doing research online. The communication throughout this process was a breeze aside from reasonable pricing and timing. This company is definitely a Go-To when in need of data recovery. Highly Recommended!- Eddie

Ephraim was helpful in recovering a corrupted SD that I had crucial files on, the process was time-consuming for him but he gave me a good deal. It wasnt exactly cheap but he gave me a better deal than I could find elsewhere. I would certainly recommend his services.

I needed professionals to restore my data lost from a Mac laptop. It was huge and I could not take the risk of using a data recovery software on my own. So I went to Sherlock Data Recovery’s office and they have been immensely supportive. Everything I thought was lost forever was safely brought back and charges were minimal. I recommend Sherlock to others.

All Picture are there!! This guy cares, he did not give up, kept me calm and got back all my data. He was responsive, prompt and did not stop till the job was done. I cam to him around six and had 90% of the data within 24 hours which kept me working and calm. Then I took my time picking up the rest. Highly recommend!! Amazing thanks

Review №88

Youd be crazy to take it to this guy. He was charging $700 to retrieve the things off of my Hard drive and transfer it to another one. But first he claimed it might cause $1,400 because its a special hard drive and he must first locate one like its kind. I took it to Best Buy because this guy sound like a scammer. Best Buy told me the information is still readable and not corrupted. So they only charged $100 to transfer it to another Hard Drive. And technically it was free because the $100 is the price of the new hard drive. Wish I could give this Sherlock Data fool a 0 star rating. 1 star is too high.

The owner, Ephraim, the Sherlock of Sherlock, is a deeply knowledgeable computer and data recovery expert who is also delightful to work with. He recovered all the important data on our jam-packed dead hard drive in only a few days, easing the angst of this unexpected computer trauma. It was a complex and complicated task, requiring identifying, isolating, and rescuing masses of data and photos from two separate users of the computer.He is persistent, and reached out to us several times during his recovery process to be sure he was looking for the specific drives and folders we were most concerned about. And he continues to stay in touch as we are slowly putting everything back in place. He takes his work seriously, and seems personally invested in getting it right, doing the most complete recovery possible, and making us (his customers) happy. We highly recommend his effective and courteous service.

I had a fantastic experience working with Ephraim at Sherlock Data Recovery. He was professional and very accommodating, schedule-wise (he was able to meet late in the evening). Most importantly, he was able to recover all of the data on a relatively old hard drive that was completely dead (no electrical whatsoever). The drive contained my familys digitized home movies from the 80s and 90s, and was the only copy we had. Needless to say I was relieved and extremely satisfied with the service Ephraim provided. Not only would I use his services again, I would recommend friends and family to use his services.

This company, this guy EPHRAIM is great! All my data was recovered(for a reasonable fee) from a 15 year old IDE drive that was dead as a doorknob and no longer spinning. A real find! I completely recommend and will be referring all my clients who need data recovery to this man without hesitation.

Our Seagate hard drive with more than 1TB of family photos suddenly stopped working. We were devastated and we went to Sherlock Data Recovery knowing that Ephraim is a Seagate Certified partner and hoped for the data to be recovered. Ephraim did an amazing work on the drive and hes able to recover all the precious photos in the drive. We are truly graceful and thankful for it and definitely recommend his service.

HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDEDI couldnt have asked for a better service and delivery from a data recovery service. They are life savers.I was in deep trouble when one of my hard drive crashed. Mr. Ephrahim from Sherlock Data Recovery was able to recover it overnight upon hearing about my urgency. In addition to that, the prices were more than fair (and competitive than any data recovery service in the city). I have seldom come across service providers who care so much about their customers. .

I was devastated after my laptop crashed on a Friday evening. Ephraim was professional, empathetic, dedicated and determined to help restore my data. Before the end of the weekend he successfully rexovered all the data from my computer. Sherlock Data Recovery is a highly personalized, customer oriented service that offers exceptional service. I highly recommend them.

Sherlack Data Recovery was extremely helpful in recovering very important files from a G-Drive that was damage due to a hard fall. Most of the files were music data that were recovered. He saved me so much time and hard work! Sherlock is willing to work out a great deal period! Give him a call!

My external hard drive stopped working. Ephraim met with me and went over everything that needed to be recovered. He was very helpful and responsive. In the end he was able to recover my entire hard drive for less than the lowest flat fee quoted by a competitor. I hope I will never need help recovering another hard drive but I was very happy with his services and would use Sherlock again.
