Bleeping Computer has a rating of 2.9 stars from 13 reviews, indicating that most customers are generally dissatisfied with their purchases. Bleeping Computer ranks 54th among Tech Support sites.
I made a post that's been up since 4 days ago about an update issue I think is malware related, and Bleeping computer hasn't even made one reply regarding my problem. In the meantime, I'm noticing other new threads being created with immediate help from Bleeping computer. Since making the post on this site a person came and helped on Bleeping Computer the next day. So far, they've been pretty helpful. And, although it took a while for a response from bleeping computer, I got the help I needed.
If a Deal is too good to be true, time to stop and think about it. My experience with this site has not been pleasant. Purchased an online storage that was one shade above complete scam. Oh, I have the storage, at unbelievable slow upload speeds and it can't upload larger files. I complained, asked from refund and am caught in the mire of them asking for new screenshots with every email, and I am not getting my refund. I rate this a company that will rip you off and will never get satisfaction out of them. Avoid Prism Online Storage all together, beyond horrible, I swear they are on dial up speeds of yesteryear. They will try to make it all your fault because you didn't upload small files one at a time. When is the last time you backed up your computer one file at a time, and only the small files?

Tip for consumers:
Far as refunds go. Good Luck. All I have gotten from them is constant requests for more screenshots of pretty much the same things over and over, which shouldn't be necessary since the server data files of the Online cloud services has all the information in their own system, to see the size of every file, to see every file that failed to upload, and how incredibly slow their own speeds were. This is just a gimmick to keep from giving the refund. Ask Prism for their Data Logs.
Products used:
I used an instant digital coupon, which redeemed quickly without hassle. As far as paying for the product, they are happy to take your money, and they do get you a coupon right away. But they don't make sure the product they are selling you are legitimate or any good. Even when they get complaints on product they are not pulling that product, they continue to sell it.
I was perusing information, which in the past had been reliable. This time, the posts indicated incorrect and unhelpful information. I solved the problem myself and wanted to post the solution, but on several tries on 2 computers, the bleeping registration bleeping failed. I read many other complaints, but all of their reviews were positive? Are they bleeping out the bad reviews?

I would rate this site highly. It gives reliable computer advice, advises what programs to use to fix a program, and reliable downloads. It is written in a non technical language so it is easy to understand.
I've been using this site for years when I need computer help. Their specialty, in my opinion, is in computer security. If your computer is littered with spyware, malware, or viruses, a simple search could save you hundreds of dollars by resolving the issue yourself rather than having a computer technician fix your computer.
The community on bleepingcomputer is very friendly and knowledgeable, but please be patient as they have lives also and will get to your post in 2 or 3 days, if not sooner.
They forum is also a great resource for computer and software tips.
I should send my praise to this site and recommend it to others. I was using Norton Power Eraser and a file named "pxhelp20. Sys" came up as unsafe. I almost went ahead and and removed it from my computer. However because it was in my system32 I wanted to exercise caution. I did a Google search and found this website which I found helpful. It stated that it was a needed program to start the computer up. Without this site (and a little brain of course!), I probably would have killed my computer. So highly recommended site.
It's help me to remove fake antivirus Smart Fortress 2012 with the very careful tutorial. I think I maybe a computer security good site. Let review it and fell ;)
I downloaded the Windows All in one Repair Tool from their sight and wanted to test it quickly before taking it to my office to solve some issues. The Windows 10 Box was running better than ever. The minute I tested SFC it crashed. When I rebooted the login password no longer worked and the network connection on login screen shows a red x. Even tried usb Windows 10 media changing utilman to cmd and changing net user admin password. Error not enough memory resourses to run the cmd command. I tried to post my problem on Bleeping Computer and it says no allowed even though I created an account. This PC had loads of important data and they crashed it and will not help! *******@postec.com
I recently had viruses and such on my computer and Bleeping.com's advice really helped.
I'm thankful for the questions people post and the answers given!
