Reviews of Re-Compute Bozeman Inc (Computer Repair)

Caroline Gustin

Recompute (Bozeman location) has done everything from upgrades on old laptops to selling me brand new desktops with all the features I wanted. They talked with me and found out what I needed for quite a while! They installed some cool extra stuff on my new computer for free and got rid of the weird stuff no one uses. They are very friendly and knowledgeable. Prices are definitely reasonable.

I recently purchased a new computer from Recompute. Dave was extremely helpful and worked with me to make a great choice. It's a big upgrade over my last one, processes much faster with lots of storage. Many thanks!

I like Eric's shop if he still owns it but... to the fella with the monitor issue. VGA and HDMI are not the same thing. HDMI is digital connection, a string of 1s and 2s which render a picture; it also carries necessary encryption to play Blu-Ray discs and has sound in it even if your monitor does not. VGA is analog, sine-waves. I won't argue the semantics - is one better than the other, yes and no. The salesperson didn't lie, they both provide a picture just stepping down to VGA only means not play digitally encrypted signal to your monitor - provided all the devices have the right-stuff. All the best. With VGA DVDs will still play... :)

I bought my MacBook from recompute a while back and it is still going strong. They were very helpful with transferring my data over and showing me how it works since its my first mac. I've had a few questions since I bought it and they were able to promptly help me over the phone each time so far. Very pleased and will recommend them in the future.

My laptop recently had some problems with the speakers and I just turned it here yesterday. Still being worked on but just want to commend this place: Employees were super helpful and rates were really really awesome! Very highly recommended if you need something repaired for laptops/computers or parts!

Great service! Very knowledgeable staff prices are decent pay a little more than Amazon for a GPU but extra 20 bucks is worth not waiting also have a good selection of used parts if you like to build as a hobby like I do highly recommend this shop

The guys at recompute have been fixing my computers for years. They always do a great job and in a timely fashion. Thanks for helping me again, the keyboard works great now!

Kim Bennett

These guys are magical! They cloned and replaced my dying hard drive and had my computer up and running again in no time! Reliable and price was very reasonable!!!!

Dave with Re-Compute is the nicest, easiest to work with computer services specialist ever. On the afternoon before a sold out weekend at an area hotel, the hotel lost all internet throughout the property. This weekend just happened to be the same weekend that the hotel's IT specialist was out of town. I called Re-Compute to see if there was anyway that they could fit us in because we had no other way to fix this internet issue. Matt took down my name and phone number and said their schedule was full for the afternoon, but that he'd contact the owner, Dave, and see if they could fit us in. Less then five minutes later, Matt called me back and said that Dave agreed to come and he would be there in a few hours. Dave showed up to the property and immediately found the issue. He ran to his shop, got a new router, hooked it up, and had internet back to the hotel after I spent five hours on the phone with our IT provider and Spectrum, but still had no internet. As the manager of a local business, I highly recommend contacting Dave and/or Re-Compute for any technology needs. Dave not only was personable, friendly, and extremely helpful, but I could tell that he sincerely cared. As a business owner himself, he understood how important it was for us as a sold out hotel to get our internet back up and running. Additionally, Dave came to the property at 6:30PM and stayed until after 8:00PM to ensure everything was working properly. Dave corresponded with our IT specialist, too. Finally, I would like to mention that Dave did all of this for us when we had never even worked with him before. Dave came and provided fast, top quality service all with a friendly smile. I truly cannot thank Dave enough. I also cannot say enough good things about him. Thank you Matt and Dave for all of your help on a very stressful night. I and the hotel will always refer anyone with computer and/or technology needs to you! Thank you again for everything that you did for us yesterday. We are sincerely grateful. Re-Compute is an amazing company and we are so thankful for you!

Michelle Kandel

My laptop was having issues for two days in a row. I had guessed either my cord, or my power port was the cause to not keep charging the battery. I called where I had bought the laptop (a box store), was told it just *had* to be my power cord and I'd have to come in and buy one. I asked a few questions an they pushed this buying a new cord on me. I looked up local repair shop and Re-Compute Bozeman was the first hit. I called I gave my assessment and the guy agreed with me. If I wanted I could come in, he'd check both the laptop and the cord. I went in, and at NO CHARGE he checked it out for me. Very personable the guy was and even listened to the fan running too hard and went back and blew out my fan for me. Again NO CHARGE, I tipped him a few dollars for doing something he could have easily charged me for and Did Not. I would send my friends here and family when needing work. I'll be back to have a computer version of a tune up here soon.

Cary Miller

Brought my desktop in here a couple years ago to get a new graphics card and RAM upgrades and replaced. It stopped functioning after a day, and when calling the tech at the store he told me I would have to pay a minimum charge to even bring it in. Not the way to treat a customer. Would not recommend.

Travis Gamble

It took me a good 3 or 4 times going in there to finally purchase myself a computer. But every time I went in, they were all about showing me the goods and the bads for what I needed on my PC experience. I ended up purchasing a high end gaming computer, custom made, at what seemed to me to be a great value. I do not regret it. At the same time I got the pride of shopping Montana local. These guys are good people and will not let you down. I was even able to junk/recycle my ancient tech computer at their store at no cost. Highly recommended shop for your computer go-to needs.

Harlan Bell

Love this place, went in a long while ago and got my computer fixed, had some sand in it or somethin, not sure how that happened. Some friendly fella with blonde hair and glasses helped me. Told me a gander about his wifes horse steppin on some fools foot. Pointed me to a good place to get lunch and I rode on out of there.

Being one of the only computer equipment shops in Bozeman and/or repair for some you should know a few things first. In brief, as a repair shop they do decent work, as a parts store however you may have issues. As a shop they do not carry: 4 pin fan/LED extensions or hubs. However they will sell you used extensions for the price of a pack of 3 new on Amazon (I called and was told $8). They also do not have any thermal pads...or any form of liquid metal application (though this is picky). As a repair shop they do decent work for average prices if your laptop is having issues, fans are loud etc. They do not have a clean room certified for opening hard drives, so if this is the route of your repair I would look elsewhere. Feedback: please carry more parts, extensions, hubs etc. all have vastly long shelf lifes. Also used parts should not be sold with such markup, c'mon guys :(

William Farris

Great People and great service! Best prices I have found!

Tina Hahn

Thank you! Thank You! and thanks again! After I was told my files were gone by another place I was feeling hopeless but I am glad I gave you all a try! Saved me a lot of time and heartache! I will be sure to come here first next time around!

Sir Sergal

One of the more respectable businesses I have had the pleasure of dealing with in Bozeman. I brought in my gaming pc to have it reformatted during Christmas vacation. When I first brought it back home it was having a random freezing issue that I still blame Windows 10 for. (originally a Windows 7 build) after a few re-visits to recompute we solved the issue with my computer with no added charges than the original reformat price.

Samuel Quick

As far as parts selection goes I couldn't be happier. Had a ton of parts I needed for a windows 98 legacy system. And they were priced fairly well. Glad I came here instead of ordering online.

BRENDA BARRETT

THESE PEOPLE ARE RUDE AS HECK......

Reece Hayes

Really cool store. Great service. Nice products.

Austin T

David came out to our office a few months ago and helped network our computers and printers together. He made everything easy for us and we coudn't be happier with the results thus far. We would feel confident recommending Recompute to anyone. Very professional and they show up on time and ready to work.

Sandy Williams

I keep breaking my laptop and they keep fixing it! Love these guys!

Bill Malik

I have visited recompute a number of times while visiting the Bozeman area and this latest time they were very helpful. Both of the gentlemen I worked with were able to let me know exactly the reason my laptop was unable to get on wireless networks. I felt a little dense when I realized I had accidentally disabled it but they were good enough to show me what was wrong and how to fix it and told me it was on the house until next time. Hopefully I don't need to see them next time I am in town but if I do I know they can handle my (self-imposed) issues.

Sara R

I am so thankful to the folks at Re-Compute. I had a massive USB drive disaster and would have lost probably 50 hours of work without their help. They were able to recover the files from my USB drive, and kept me in the loop along the way. A special thanks to Matt for his excellent customer service.

Emily Best

Great service at a fair price. They worked hard and fast to resolve a major computer emergency I had.

Jay Eagle

Been in business for awhile, very professional

Theron F

Have used Re-Compute many times. Always friendly and capable at a reasonable cost.

Wayne Radochonski

Recompute fixed my computer on a moment's notice, not once but twice! I was in the middle of a project when my extremely expensive, custom built (but not by Recompute!) fire breathing dragon of a workstation destroyed its BIOS after extremely heavy use. Recompute saved my bacon and my reputation. Thanks guys!

Tanya Smith

Honest and reliable. I would recommend them to anybody.

Dale Pickard

Re-Compute staff are professional, courteous, and with a quick turnaround, they have given my company excellent support. Re-Compute was able to save our company files within 24 hours of a crash. We are very happy to have Re-Compute to turn to for support and repairs. They deserve more than 5 stars.

Alison Fitzpatrick

Looks drudgy inside, but they were the only computer store in Bozeman that had the screen on hand. Friendly service.

Revan1664

Great place, I've been there multiple times and have found the staff to be polite and knowledgeable. Honestly, i wouldn't trust my gaming laptop anywhere else. They take good care of it, and have helped me fix it when random issues occur or even if i have general questions. Prices are more then fair in my opinion. Re-Compute is definitely my "go to" computer place.

Alexis Wainwright

I've taken my computer/s here a few times and they always save the day!

Byron Stone

I bought my first monitor there and it worked great. I wanted a second one. I had to keep bringing it back because unlike my first one, it did not have an HDMI port. I refused to downgrade to a VGA on one monitor and HDMI on the other. It took them three times until the guy on duty just told me that VGA and HDMI are the same thing. And they are supposed to be the computer experts. Regardless, I was sick of waiting and just bought the damn thing. Now I have to sit here with one monitor black and the other white.

Ross Dean Mitchell

Get ready to pay full retail no discounts here.

Stevie Klaer

The prices are reasonably fair, but the work is incredibly sloppy with little to no attention to even large details. Such as simply yanking rubber feet off of a laptop, without bothering to re-attach them properly, or replacing the part that's been ruined.

Rodney Ackerman jr

They know there stuff

Wendy Harvey

Took my laptop in to get cleaned up but have not gotten it back yet

Abe Buchanan

Great service technicians know exactly what they're doing and get back to you quickly!

Justin Kietzman

This place is run by good guys. The owner is honest and helpful. Not much else to say.

Robert Glover

The people at Recompute were incredibly nice and knowledgeable, I would highly recommend them to anybody. They helped me upgrade my my computer to play my favorite games. Very good prices too.
