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."

I own a pharmacy in a small suburb in Chatsworth, Durban. The pharmacy over many years, has gained approximately 13 000 patients profiles and has done over 125 000 scripts. I thought having 2 back-ups and various power surge protectors, nothing could affect me – how wrong I was. In a matter of seconds my life I thought was over, as I lost almost 2 decades of patient & account information in a nano second. It was discovered that a high power surge through my computer had destroyed my hard-drive and both the back-ups. I approached my computer software company and they told me my data was lost forever, every other pharmacy that had this problem had zero success of recovery and if anything was recovered at all, it was useless or corrupted. In approximately 24 hours Tecleo changed that statistic forever. Not only did Tecleo recover 100% of my data, but also none of my files or information was damaged or corrupted. The computer software company was left speechless. The attitude of the two technicians roused displayed confidence & mature professionalism. They calmly assessed the three hard drives sent to them, always updating me, via-mail, so I could make an informed decision about what data must be extracted. Tecleo Data Recovery and Digital Forensics Lab expediently recovered the data from my hard-drives and transferred it on to 2 CD’s which was soon safely sent via courier in a convenient wrapping. This experience was unforgettable, as they turned a nightmare into pure utopia & bliss. As a health professional and somewhat of a computer fundi I cannot commend Tecleo anymore but to say, you guys have set a standard that surpasses simple data recovery.
Thank you."

Fantastic service. I wholeheartedly recommend these guys to everyone. I was a bit worried about sending my hard drive to them for recovery from Botswana to South Africa. The process of creating a commercial tax invoice was the most worrying. I have had bad experiences in the past with things getting stuck at customs and then customs charging me large amounts of money. Martin and Henk helped me through the process and it was completely painless. Their email communication is prompt and they are happy to help with any questions or issues you may have. They have a variety of payment methods which you can use, the most convenient for me being Paypal, and stopped me having to pay excessive bank charges. Most importantly they rescued all my data!! Couldn't be happier! And they got it done in 3 days on the standard service! Thanks Again!"

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."
