GuruAid Reviews Summary

The company has garnered a mixed reputation, with some customers praising the quality and thoroughness of technical support, highlighting positive experiences with knowledgeable and courteous technicians. However, numerous negative reviews point to significant concerns regarding deceptive practices, such as misrepresenting affiliations with well-known tech brands and difficulties in obtaining refunds. Customers frequently report long wait times, inadequate service, and aggressive upselling tactics. Overall, while there are satisfied customers who appreciate the support, a substantial number express distrust and dissatisfaction, indicating a need for improved transparency and customer service practices.

I had Guru do a clean-up of my home computer. It did take a long time, but that is due to my slow internet speed. Everything is now working to my satisfaction. Thanks.

Very helpful with problems on computer and very quick to fix it. Glad we can just pick up the phone and get it sorted. It takes the stress out of your hands if you have any problems. We are not all computer wiz kids and you can do so much damage if you delete the wrong programes etc. Glad that I have joined GuruAid

EAGESH: Made a frustrating upgrade to the internet turn into a cake walk. I would defiinitely recommed him to anyone that are not computer savvy because he know how to resolve problems and he is very patient with his novice computer clients. It was a pleasure to work with him.

Sanjay Gupta
January 30, 2015

Sanjay Gupta - Did a great job. I had downloaded McAfee to supersede Norton because McAfee was supposed to be better. I immediately got attacked by a storm of popups. Then I was told it was a trojan and McAfee could do nothing about it; I WOULD Have to sign up for a $399 support function. I said "No" repeatedly and went back to you. Sanjay removed McAfee, reinstalled Norton, and after a while, fixed the popup trojan or whatever it was. I love you guys.
