What our clients have to say
Christopher is professional and friendly. He has patience until the exasperation kicks in and you finally do it his way because it is the best way for you and your business. However, once, he arrived hungry and required eggs. He did not bill me for his breakfast. I heartily recommend him for computer needs. He also is a fine pianist.
“When I think of importance, Chris Peterson immediately comes to mind.What and how do I do to safely get my techno world back on track and quickly??? I simply contact Chris who has been my magician and mentor since 2000. Panic is a word from my past!!!”
I was in the market looking to buy a computer and came to find Chris and I have had nothing but positive experiences with him since our first interaction. The Dell computer Chris got for me is amazing; he equipped it with all of the programs that I needed to literally just turn it on and have it up and running, ready for my use. Ever since I have had the computer, Chris has always been there to answer any and all of my questions, I really appreciate his personal customer service and the ability…
Hey! Thank you so much.I’m pretty sure this machine is just possessed!This time, with your suggestions, it finally decided to let me log in! Yay 🙂I was able to do all the stuff I had sitting there waiting to be done. Love that new software you recommended!Thank you again for everything! Will be sure to be in touch when we need your help again. Anytime anyone needs a computer problem fixed, I’ve been giving them your info!it’s super reassuring to have someone who really knows …
As a retired ‘dinosaur’ I’ve come to appreciate Chris’s expertise for all areas of my personal computer and am totally comfortable that my computer is a ‘safe’ one. His reliability and values are stellar and unmatched. Sincerely, Carol B., a very satisfied client
I have found Chris’s advice to be very helpful. He is very patient in my case with a person who is not a ‘techie’ or a computer wiz. Chris has helped me handle some of the bumps in the road when it comes to handling what seemed to be never ending computer upgrades and changes.
I have used Chris Petersen for computer service on several occasions. Each time I found him to be very prompt, capable and efficient. Where some people see problems to be overcome, Chris sees challenges to be met, and he skillfully and eagerly meets them. (I suppose I shouldn’t comment on the added bonus of the piano recital you gave me, since this treat might not be included in all service packages?!)
You’re a rockstar!
Problem: Our computer could not get on the internet. We took it to our company tech department. Comment: nothing wrong. We called Comcast. Comment: service is strong. We called Watchdog. They connected to our computer. They were patient. They found the problem, fixed the problem and we were back online in 1 hour. Now that’s our kind of repair.Moral of this story: Call Watchdog first!
A friend recommended Chris 8 or 9 years ago when I was having trouble with my computer. One call was all it took and Chris was at my place within an hour. Over the years, when I have had problems, Chris has always been there for me, be it coming over or just fixing it over the phone. I consider Chris a good friend and my only computer guy.
