The Critical Update

I had Luis and Brian come to service and update our server. They were very knowlegable and able to point out all the security risks I may have. I am confident they have me covered. They monitor any unusual activity and let me know what to do right away. I highly recommend them for a security update of your system.

Just an update. I still use them, including today, and again the service was excellent!

I’ve had the chance to use The Critical Update on a couple of occasions since my first review and I’ve continued to be impressed. I highly recommend them to my friends and family when looking for computer and tech help.

We’ve been using The Critical Update for several years now and Luis and his crew are extremely knowledgeable, helpful and always get the problem fixed every time. I can’t recommend them enough!

I took my 7+ year old computer in last week and asked them to strip it down, clean up the hard drive and get it ready for another user. They were fast, professional, and were very clear in letting me know what they could and couldn’t do with this old machine. I was able to pass it along to a friend who is enjoying the connectivity! By the way, I am new to Texas, so I relied on the Unilocal reviews to find The Critical Update. The reviews were very helpful in finding the right place for me. Go Critical Update, go Unilocal reviewers!

They totally saved my bacon!!! Knowledgeable and efficient. I called at 11, Brian came in at 1 and had me up and running right away. He fixed some errors, updated my system and gave me a plan for a backup to my backup. I can’t say enough good things. My staff was very happy to be back up and running. If you have computer problems call these guys. They earned my business and gratitude today. Thank you so much!

Totally saved my bacon!!! My veterinary clinic was working with no computer until Brian came and fixed me up. Very knowledgeable and efficient. Got me running, fixed a number of problems and gave me a plan so next time my backup will have a backup. Critical Update indeed. I called at 11 am, he came by at 1 pm and by 2 pm he was done. Thank you. Others seemed helpful, but these guys totally came through in the clutch. You need help, call these guys!

Would not recommend this business to my worst enemy. I dropped my laptop off to have the fan replaced. I was told it would take a few days. It took 2 weeks. The best part is when I got it back it quit within 30 seconds of starting it. I took it to best buy where I was told that the mother board was fried. I called Luiz who said it was my problem. That he would not guarantee their work. So not only was my computer late but its now dead. Horrible business practice. Find a better option. Don’t make the same mistake I did.

WARNING!!! DO NOT GO TO LUIS! Zero star rating from me. Gave our computer to Luis to change out the inside fan that had stopped. We did not us it at all when we realized that it had. Luis’ first option for us was to point a regular fan into the ventilation slots on the laptop for a cheap fix. Of course we said no to that option. So we gave it to him so he could replace it with a new internal fan. After weeks of having it (and not updating us on the progress) it comes back with a power cord that’s not ours and only enough battery to turn it on to boot-​up. When we turned it on the screen lit up for a few seconds then went permanently dead. We then took it to the Best Buy Geeks where they told us our motherboard was fried. Funny, since when we gave it to Luis to work on it was working and he told us that the ONLY problem was the fan. We called to see if he’d back up the work and obviously damage he had done he told us for the most part that we were out of luck. Now, we’ve lost everything that we had and are out the money for the non-​repair and a new laptop. Way to back up your work Luis! You are a crook!!!

It was my first expirance with The critical update. Luis could not fix my problem but was very honest, didn’t try to sell me something I don’t need, and didn’t take a penny from me on this. Great service!

This is an easy one. Sometimes when I do these, I’m torn as to how many starts to give. Not this time. This one was easy.
Whenever I have computer issues, I call Luis. I’ve only had to use them a few times. The first time I used them, I had a virus that somehow got past my anti-​virus software and completely took over my computer. It was unusable. It wouldn’t even let me run anti-​virus software or do anything else. I thought «wow, how is anyone going to get around this». I called Luis on a Friday night. I figured I’d get a response on Monday. But, he had one of his guys on it Saturday morning. To my amazement, he was able to log onto my machine remotely and take care of it in no time flat.
The other times I’ve called. Luis has diagnosed my problem and told me to just use some other service or product that would solve my issue at no benefit to him. That is maybe more impressive than fixing the virus. Finding a business with that kind of integrity makes them a real find.
Thank you Critical Update. I will certainly use them for all of my future tech concerns and I feel more than confident telling anyone and everyone else to do the same.

Honest! I didn’t think my computer was still under warranty, but Costco gives you 2 yrs. They could have taken my money but they gave me Costco’s number to call instead! Wow, that’s service. I’ll will use them in the future…

Outstanding Service! My daughter has a medical condition which keeps her bedridden much of the time, with her laptop being her connection to friends and the outside world. On Friday, when it failed to power up, we thought we were in for a long weekend. I called Luis, the owner, who has saved us many times in the past, and he coordinated it so that one of his technicians, David, could meet with me that afternoon. As luck would have it, David had the precise part needed and the repair was done quickly while I waited! My daughter thought it was Christmas all over again when I returned home with her beloved laptop. I’ve always been impressed with the fair pricing and timely response with all of my computer issues!

Luis, took personal care of my data recovery. I felt secure throughout the entire process that my data was in the safest hands. I’d do business with them again in a hear beat
.

Excellent service, Luis (owner) met me after business hours in order to accommodate my schedule. Work was done fast and at a fair price. Luis is a great person to do business with and plan on using him in the future for all of my PC repair needs.

When I was overcome with a virus on my computer I found The Critical Update and they were able to save my computer. I found Louis and the team there to be knowledgeable and jumped on my problem. They have a group of guys that know what has to be done to fix or repair your computer. If you are having a problem do not hesitate to contact this group to fix your issues, and help you from being a victim of scum hackers or virus maniac’s out there. Sorry it took me awhile to get back here to write a review but better late than never. So hey what are you sitting there? Call them or go by there.

I have needed services from The Critical Update in the past and they have been thorough and worked diligently to remedy my computer problems. I know that I can totally trust them to do what they say and that they won’t do what others do and over charge me for services. Thanks for the service.

They have given us great computer technical support. They did a great job repairing our printer. They sent a team over to recover some lost data from a hacker and set up a backup solutions that would meet our needs. Luis and his great teem have done a great job managing our IT needs. The Critical Update is critical to any company that uses computers or has a network.

Luis and his team are the best! I had two pc’s that were both dead in the water. The team at TCU cleaned up all the viruses and replaced the hard drive on one of them. Now I have two totally functional pc’s repaired quickly and for a fair price. Thanks Luis.

Whenever I am having computer «issues», I call Luis. He sends me someone right away and get’s me back up and running. Sometimes it’s not even that I can’t fix the problem myself… it’s that his guys can do it so much faster, I’d be foolish for trying it myself. Thank you Luis for always keeping my computers up to speed with my busy work days!
