I want to thank Tecleo Data Recovery and Digital Forensics Lab for their service that they offered me. I was really struggling to find a place that is affordable yet trustworthy with my broken HDD. It was a WD Elements 1TB hard drive. Tecleo Data Recovery and Digital Forensics Lab from the beginning was very helpful and could assist me immediately in the friendliest manner. I especially want to thank Martin Smith for the quick response and kind heart. It was an absolute pleasure working with Tecleo Data Recovery and Digital Forensics Lab and I would suggest their service to anyone that has lost data on any memory device. Thank you very much!"

My Samsung HD crashed due to age and accidental impact. A number of IT companies attempted to recover the data using data recovery software, but were entirely unsuccessful. TecLeo managed to repair the HD and recover 100% of the lost data. I can recommend them for the services they offer."

Testimonials

Great stuff. They do exactly what they say they will. Fast, efficient and accurate. It would be great if they had some slower-to-process rates for private clients that are more affordable (for one's family pictures?), but perhaps this is not economically viable. Either way; well done and I can safely recommend them. Don't hesitate to send your drive. It is in good hands."

The laptop drive of one of our senior Executives failed after his laptop fell to its death and the most recent backups of his data had failed. I Googled data recovery experts and gave Tecleo a try. We are so impressed that all data, including .PST's were able to be recovered. Years of data and old email correspondence cannot have a price put on it. The service was incredibly efficient and of an excellent quality. Hopefully we won't have the need again, but should we ever need data recovered off of a HDD again, I know where we'll be going."

Testimonials

I am a PhD student on a very tight time schedule. Losing my data at a critical time this year by accidentally dropping my external hard drive was traumatic for me. Especially as I hadn't backed up the last few months of detailed data analysis work. But being a student means I am on a tight budget too. Tecleo were able to turn this situation around. They gave me hope and a solution. Martin was full of technical knowledge and so professional to deal with. Henk was brilliant in reviewing the final costs and charging me only for the amount of data recovered. That is a huge concession to a student. It is good old-fashioned customer service like this, that make them stand head and shoulders above other companies. It is this combination of technical expertise, individual tailoring and fair treatment that will keep me a loyal customer of theirs. You get a well-deserved 5 stars from me and keep up the good service!"

Testimonials

Tecleo is a professional, trustworthy, reliable and knowledgeable data recovery company. Initially they informed me that they might be able to recover 80% of data and that it takes time to recover lost data. Tecleo recovered 100% of my data. I was overjoyed. The cost to recover the data was irrelevant as I was prepared to pay far more than what I was charged by Tecleo. I will recommend Tecleo to any company or person that is in need of serious data recovery. I wouldn't waste my time ever again with promises from another company or person that data can be recovered at a lower or cheaper price. "School fees" were paid! A dedicated, motivated and professionally qualified team is at work at Tecleo. Thank you so very much."

BAIE GOEIE NUUS - Mariana se hardeskyf wat begin Mei gecrash het is uiteindelik recover. Al die fotos is gered! Ons het 8 Mei die hardeskyf ingegee by Intratec in Midrand. Op 15 Julie het hulle ons laat weet dat hulle uiteindelik opgee en dat hulle geen sukses gehad het met die herwinning van die data nie. In al hierdie weke se wag het hulle ons ingelig dat hulle 2 keer moes parte aan die hardeskyf vervang. Ons het Donderdag 16 Julie die hardeskyf by Tecleo Data Recovery and Digital Forensics Lab in Centurion ingegee. Met die eerste oogopslag het hulle gesê dat Intratec nooit eens die hardeskyf oop gemaak het nie. Die seëls van die hardeskyf van nog heel. Net 1 week later was die job gedoen - suksesvol !! Waar die eerste maatskappy in 10 weke niks kon reg kry nie. Ek beveel met vrymoedigheid Tecleo Data Recovery and Digital Forensics Lab in Centurion aan vir enige Data Herwinning hetsy rekenaar, selfoon, memory kaarte. Hierdie maatskappy weet wat hulle doen."

I run regular backups and when my HDD started giving problems recently I was not too concerned. Simply replace the HDD, restore the backup and off we go… If only it was that simple. Whilst trying to restore my backup, I learnt with great shock and disbelief that the virtual machine on my Mac did not back up properly. I started panicking as the majority of data resided on the virtual machine and no matter what I tried, I simply could not gain access to vital directories and files. It was with great relief that I came across the Tecleo team, not only did they provide a friendly and efficient service, they also recovered all of my data. Thanks for a professional and efficient service, much appreciated!"

Being a musician/producer/gamer and an avid user of my computer, I have put my PC to the test one time too many. I lost my hard-drive to old age & over-use. I had many extremely important files which I just couldn't lose, and just when I gave up hope. I contacted the CSIR, who advised me that "TecLeo" is the best in the business. "If they can't restore your data, no one can." Contacting them I experienced great service and because I am a private user, they gave me a decent price. Within no time I was quoted and set for the recovery. Thanks a million.
