Great Services

I brought my Mac here for data recovery and these folks never let me down and thank for that. I thought that they would just take me around and around but George was forthcoming and with everything from their end and facilitated everything till I got my data back. Highly recommend SalvageData

I can't rate this company any lower

I can't rate this company any lower. I sent them my hard drives, and then waited to hear back from them. When I finally did, they gave me a number to call. I called 6 different times and left 4 voicemails to try and get them to call me back. It took me 4 months to finally talk to my representative. Just terrible customer service, I demanded my hard drives back and will never send anyone to them.

Salvage Data is a life saver if your data is lost or destroyed. They are able to retrieve the data, even in the "worst situation" category, but boy will you pay. Their data retrieval services range from 600-2,000+. If you are willing to wait 5+ weeks for the economy services(I did and the bill was $800). They also promised a download of data along with a flash drive backup but did not follow through (my case manager told me what I was to receive and I got the download but not the flash). I was grateful that they were able to get my years worth of work , perhaps if you need their services ASK FOR A CONTRACT IN WRITING WHICH DETAILS WHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE FOR THEIR SERVICES.

Easy dealings and communication

Hugs to everyone at Salvage data Recovery.They recovered thousands of photos off my iPhone that I had dropped in a lake while out on holiday. I believe their headquarters are in Cleveland, but their drop off location in Seattle made things far easier for me with sending the phone in. Within a week all of my photos were sent back to me on a thumb-drive. Couldn't be happier!

Quick data recovery

I worked with Salvage Data to have my photos recovered from a vacation I took to Napa Valley, CA with my girlfriend. They were able to recovery nearly all of them . Well worth it. Thanks Epic!!

Good Customer Care

I was very much impressed by George who was my rep at Salvagedata. He often communicated in time and made sure that I received my thumb drive. They have a good and reliable customer care department!

This place is great

This place is great. They recovered all of scripts and music from my broken flash drive! They were in contact with me every day during the process, letting me know as they recovered the files. They even held onto everything for 3 months when I suddenly had to leave town for work and when I returned it took only half an hour to get everything back on a new drive. Highly recommend them"

Alex did great!

Alex calmed me down after I went into panic mode that is when my thumb drive was water damaged and I could not access any data that was in it. I thought that my music project had gone down the drain but that wasn't the case with these guys as they went ahead and recovered everything with five business days! Alex, thank you so much.

Good service

Good service. This place is really worth the effort and time. I had 500 GB worth of data bugged by virus that I was unable to open. Salvage-data tech was very polite and helpful. It took me just 24 hours to get back 100% of my data. It was really worth contacting them. I am very grateful for their effort. Thanks a lot."

I had lost all my data on a single hard drive. Salvage-data helped me to recover 99% of that data in a quick period of time. I am very happy and satisfied with the service I received and recommend this company to all business and private users.
Staff at Salvage-data are knowledgeable and extremely helpful. All in all a very pleasant experience.

A simply wonderful and professional company. The guys there are really helpful. Communication was friendly and polite. I am so pleased with the result of my data recovery as I never thought I would be able to get my photos from my IPhone after it was water damaged and not backed up. I would definitely recommend them to people.

BUYER BEWARE

Avoid this scam at all costs. I paid $500 to have my usb data recovery request fast-tracked. They did not fulfill this service and were unreachable for weeks at a time via email and phone. I had to get credited through my credit card company after months of trying, with no response from the company. They will take your money, then never provide the serviced advertised, so i would avoid this at all costs!

Data recovered

Salvagedata has been my ‘to-go-to’ company for all my data recovery needs and there is no single day that they did let me down. Always reliable and I highly recommend them.

Best company

I went to their drop point to pick my iPhone which I had sent to them for some data recovery. These guys really are the real deal when it comes to data recovery, they did what I had expected from the as they recovered nearly all the data that I had deleted. If you need some professional and dedicated team of data recovery then Salvage Data should be your preferred place.

I was very happy, the details in the thumb drive were so IMPORTANT to me and I couldn’t figure out losing the data!

I highly recommend.

The recovery was very fast and efficient. The quotation was reasonable and given the amount of data that I needed recovered then I wouldn’t mind paying more

highly recommend

I had the unfortunate event of having both my laptop and its backup external hard drive go out on me within a short time span. As a result, I thought I had lost a lot of important family photos and videos, work files, etc. I came across Salvage Data and LaRaya helped me out with my case. After Salvage Data technicians ran some diagnostics on the hard drive I brought to them (which was actually FREE), LaRaya explained to me what was going on and laid out all of my options. In the end, they were able to retrieve all of those valued family memories and important work-related files, and my wife and I couldn't be happier about the result. What I appreciate the most about LaRaya is her eagerness and professionalism towards their customers and how accommodating she was to my financial situation. If she's able to make something work, she will. I highly recommend these guys.
