“Very good experience”

Philip C.
4/10/15

I've been an iYogi customer ever since Dell refused to extend services on my desktop computer nearly 10 years ago. I never regretted that decision. Throughout the years, iYogi support is always available every time I had a problem, whether it was a computer virus, or a Windows upgrade, or a disk crash. Moreover, I don't think any tech support service in the U.S. can and will ever match iYogi's pricing. The 24/7 service at iYogi is provided by college trained computer science majors, and software engineers. They are truly professionals. I hope iYogi will remain as a customer-oriented independent company, and not get swallowed up by a big company only interested in squeezing more money out of their customers and their own staff. Good job, iYogi, and good luck!

“Between my husband and myself we spent 10 hours in...”

me k.
8/6/10

Between my husband and myself we spent 10 hours in front on the computer in one day. BEWARE! Don't waste your time. We went 5 full days without internet access or removal of our viruses. 3 return phone calls with an appointment also to no avail. This is a rip off. Also be informed that is you have Shield Deluxe, change your antivirus software. This is the company that recommends iyogi.

Sometimes they were good, a lot of times they would push to sell me things that I would just hang up on them.

I have had the iYogi service for several years and have found it so frustrating. Everytime I call or use their support dock it is hours on the phone. I was having a problem getting it to boot up. They convinced me to upgrade the operating system from Vista to Windows 7 which I did. It didnt really help. A month after installing Win 7 i called for help again. TWO hours into the conversation they were still pressuring me to upgrade to windows 8. They got a supervisor on the phone and they wouldn't just fix the issue. I just kept saying please fix the problem. I finally caved and purchased 8. Two nights ago i called to have them install it. 5 hours on the phone. It is still not fully installed. Then they told me that the anti-virus program wasn't compatible so i had to purchse that. Then they pressured me into purchasing hard drive protection. At 11pm I couldnt take it anymore so we set up an appointment for tonight to finish it. I left work early to be here and they never called. I tried calling them to get another technician and i was on hold for 30minutes and no one picked up so i finally hung up. So i will need to call again tomorrow to try to connect. They NEVER keep appointments except when they are selling you something... like renewing your service contract... they are all over that! I cant wait until they are out of my life!

My McAfee failed to protect me against something called Vista Anti-Virus 2012 and when I called for free tech support iYogi took the call.

Although they are based in India the tech was extremely knowledgeable, spoke coherent English, and was very friendly to which I was to find out why later.

After transferring control of my computer to him it took about an hour to get it out of my computer. During the time he was running removal tools he showed me that my computer had a boat load of other problems which I thought he was going to fix then for free -Wrong

Then he hit with the sales pitch that my computer needed a good cleaning which iYogi could do with a 1 year program for $149 or 2 year for $249 which were higher than prices I had seen in PC World from this same company, but much lower than I had been quoted from other places.

I told him it just wasn't within my budget because of the Holidays but I may consider it later and agreed to a phone call in mid Jan annd d to sharpen his pencil.

Then he started with the Typical Salesman Hard Sell Urgency approach and couldn't guarantee price after Christmas but would talk to his boss just for me.

To make a long story short I will probably use them to clean my computer based on my previous experience with them and the lower cost, that is if he sharpens up his pencil cause I spent a lifetime in sales and understand who you can $#*!er and Deal with.

Up-sell, bait/switch, phone calls forever after. Better alternative: Get some young local computer-nerd to do it for 1/10 price.

Stay away from iYogi. At best they are clueless; at worst, they are crooks.

I called them because of a compatibility issue between a brand new Windows 8 PC and a 3 year old Epson printer. I thought I was on Epson's driver download site but somehow got intercepted by a live tech support person at iYogi. She took control of my computer and immediately commented on how slow it was running. "Don't worry though," she said. "I'll clean up your computer and get it running properly as soon as I fix your printer problem." 20 minutes later, no progress on the printer problem, but my PC was running even slower and scary pop-ups were appearing on the screen saying things like, "Your computer is about to crash."

"See this box?" She moved the cursor to one of the pop-ups. "Your computer has some serious viruses, but I can fix it. Why don't you sit back and have a cup of coffee while I work?"

"Who''s paying for this?" I wanted to know. It was like pulling teeth to get a straight answer, but finally she said that while a lot of the work was free, it would take $150 to fully sanitize my computer.

Being convinced that iYogi had deliberately caused the problems they were now offering to fix, I pulled the plug on the Live Tech Support. Then I went to work: turned back on the firewall that had been turned off; removed 4 spyware programs that had mysteriously appeared; went to the real Epson site and downloaded the right driver; installed it - and everything works. But I am still worried about identity theft etc. I mean, God knows what they sucked out of my computer while they had access.

Oh yes... my computer miraculously recovered its speed... after I detached iYogi's drogue chute;-)
