“I have used Guru Aid for several months now”

Maureen B.

I have used Guru Aid for several months now. They do an excellent job assisting me and fixing my computer when it is slow or has any type of problems. I would be happy to recommend them to anyone that needs help with their computers. They are also very courteous and patient.

“Very questionable!”

I thought I was calling ESET. After letting them have remote access and paying $110, I am finding the next day that a lot of the clean up they said they had done, they did not. They were able to fix my problem with my security, however, I was told it would take 40 minutes and it took over 8 hrs. I actually had to call them back because the tech left me hanging on remote for a long time without doing anything. Once he started working on it again he was finished very quickly. Don't know if I got him in trouble and he skipped over things or what. I even missed a planned event with my Grandchildren because he had told me I needed to stay by the computer. Would not use them again. I could have done most of what he did.

Its been more than three months I am having Guru Aid Services. I really love their professional attire. Most importantly I like their 24/7 round the clock service. I am taking Guru aid services for my office and home computer.

In answer to your question, I have no knowledge that they are a scam organisation, and have only used them that once. Frankly I'm not game to use them again, as I fear some other problem will arise.

Guruaid is the best thing that could happen to my computer. The staff is very knowledgeable and patient over the 2 days it took to clean up my system ( cause it was that messed up) they are total pros at what they do. I recommend them on all my computer needs. They took from 15 mb of free space on my hard disk to 395 GB of free space (wow)

I have been very pleased with the services from Guru Aid. All the technicians are very professional, courteous and have knowledge of what needs to be performed on your computer. I would recommend their services to anyone who needs to have their computer for overall tune up or clean up, etc. They are trust worthy as well, good people to work with.

Guruaid has helped me out of several tight spots with my computer and printer, both. Having an HP printer and a Dell computer may be the problem, but the technician was tenacious in finding a solution. I contacted Dell who told me it was a problem with the printer (without checking, of course), but b While it took 4 1/2 hours to complete the fix, I was able to work on other things while he did what needed to be done.

I find it is good when you are running a business with 'tight' overheads to be able to have a resource available to toubleshoot problems.
In the market place there is not a service like yours available - that operates 24 hours a day - 7 days per week.
It is important if you have deadlines to meet that systems do not let you down.
This were GuruAid comes in.
Many thanks

I had a wonderful experience with Fahed Sayed, the technician who helped me through a horrible experience. Suffice to say, solving computer issues is not my strength. But working with a thoughtful, imaginative and thorough professional like him made a bad situation palatable.
If you ever have a problem, I hope you're lucky enough to find a professional like Fahed Sayed to help you solve it.
I'm very happy and grateful!

Do yourself a favor, work with GuruAid.

From the time that I first was introduced in the staff at Guru.com time I found them to be courteous, knowledgeable, and friend. Prior to coming to Guru I had experienced a computer problem with around 30 days without success. As a result of using Guru each of my computer issue has been addressed.

I have used GuruAid for the last year to fix my mistakes on my computer. I have found them to be extremely professional and helpful. My computer is fixed in a short time and they assist me with anything I ask of them. I have learned a lot from them. They will do more to help your computer than other companies will. I think they are the best around!

I have used Guru Aid for several years now and each time the technicians do what I ask to resolve a problem and more if they find something I need to know about. I would highly recommend them for your IT team - they are all you need to finish your business in a timely fashion. Mr. Fshekha was great to work with and made sure i understood what he was doing. Again, with the details, they are "experts" in their field.

Prompt and courteous service. Problem solved and I was assured if it was not to my satisfaction or any other problems occurred, they would be glad to help. I am so happy to have this service as I am not computer literate and need the expertise and advice of GuruAid representatives. Thank you for this service.

My initial use of GuruAid has appeared to resolve a vexing problem concerning my attempts to remove AVG from my windows 8.1 pc. The techs were very skilled and quick to understand and fix the problems at hand.
