I had a pleasant experience with Tecleo Data Recovery and Digital Forensics Lab. They were very friendly and could manage to save most of my data from my HDD. They were very efficient in sending the quotes and invoices; always ready to reply to any queries that I had throughout the process. I would suggest that they keep the client updated as to where in the data recovery process they are: eg. started working on the HDD; finished with the HDD. Upon collection of the HDD just a synopsis as to why the HDD may have failed if it was an electro-mechanical failure. Thank you Tecleo for your help!"

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!"

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.

My external hard drive became noisy, and then at once became unable to mount. With hindsight, I could have acted on the slightly increased vibration from the drive before it failed. Tecleo recovered the majority of the files on my drive, which were family photos of sentimental value to us. It must have been a very tedious job, as it took much longer than expected. Tecleo along the way communicated professionally with us. Despite it taking much longer, they stood by their initial cost estimate."

I have a NAS device with 6 drives that is on a network where all our work finally sits. After a years work of Video production (close to 17TB), I replaced the Drives with fresh new drives for the new years worth of work and kept the old drives as back-up to be used whenever we might need those files. The NAS continued to work fine until 2 months later when I put the old set of drives back to access the old data. To my horror, none of the drives where readable anymore - they showed up as having data - just that the NAS could not read it! The NAS could see only the new drives if fitted back but not all my old work. No joy at all was received from the manufacturer in decoding the info to be read by our computers. We realised only too late that the NAS worked like that - once reconfigured, it could not see the old stuff. I am very thankful to come across a company like TECLEO who not only saved the day by decoding and safely transferring all the data onto readable new drives but in such an efficient and cost saving way. They kept us timeously informed of progress and most importantly, kept to the agreed price despite the laboriously long job. I will definitely recommend this company that stands out among the rest because of their principles and not being driven by greed as is so commonplace nowadays."
