James came to sort out a printer to laptop issues I was having, he also rectified a problem where my laptop sometimes didn't come on, and talked me through the issues. James takes the time to speak to you about what is happening, and how he can put it right. He is very knowledgeable and always tidies up after himself

I use Our Technician regularly to keep my computer (both hardware and software) up to date and most importantly secure. On this occasion, I thought if I did an 'update' it would be straightforward - it wasn't. Thankfully, I was able to get interim advice and support from Our Technician until a home visit could be organised and this worked well. On the home visit, all was reset, updated and most importantly worked with no issues - particularly no loss of data or files. Everything is continuing to work well. Just as importantly, I also feel reassured that professional help will be on hand if needed.

Great work
This is not the first time James has undertaken work on my computer to solve problems. He responds promptly and asks questions that help him to diagnose problems. On this occasion he was trying to find the problem with my TalkTalk email. He persisted and eventually resolved the issue. His extensive knowledge is very reassuring. He is always willing to explain what he is doing in a way I can understand, and is happy to answer questions. I have every confidence in his work and would be happy to recommend him highly

Blocked access to emails
At a time when I was unable to access or send emails, our technician took on the problem. He diagnosed the possible cause, reassured me that it was unlikely that my computer had been compromised, and set about resolving the problem. He undertook to talk to my email provider and act on my behalf, taking an active part in resolving the problem in 24 hours. The relief of having our technician working on the problem was tremendous. I had been very concerned about the possibility of being scammed. I knew that he would work on the problem until it was resolved.

Absolutely first class service
Our Technician have dealt with all our computer-related needs for about 10 years, including providing and installing new computers and laptops and dealing with the entire range of issues that arise. James seems incredibly knowledgeable and can always provide expert, up-to-date and cost-effective advice in any situation. We know we can place complete trust in his advice and his work, and his charges for his work seem very reasonable. I would be very alarmed if he retired or moved away to a different part of the country!

Exceptional IT Help for Work and Home
I have been using James for the past five years, both for work in London and at home in Beckenham, and I honestly cannot recommend him enough. He is always extremely helpful, and no problem seems too difficult for him to solve. We all know how frustrating it is when laptops, Wi Fi, or other technology does not work, but one call to James, and he is either able to fix it over the phone or come in person very quickly. He is reliable, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to deal with. I have recommended him to friends and colleagues, and I will continue to do so without hesitation.

James built me a new, Windows 11 laptop, installed MS Office and transferred the files from my old machine. While here he also sorted out problems I was having with my e-mail account. My wife and I have used James' services for many years. We know we will always receive a personal service of the highest quality and reliability. He explains things in easy to understand, layman's terms. If there are choices to be made, he sets out the pros and cons clearly and never attempts to persuade you to go for the more expensive option. I think James has now built three laptops and one desktop for us and every time we have been delighted with the results.

I have used James Broomfield of Our Technician numerous times over the last five years, originally on the recommendation of a friend who had also used him for a long time. I can highly recommend him. He is excellent at dealing with any type of IT issue and has managed to resolve every problem we've had - both large and small. Most recently he was assisting with an urgent issue with Outlook email and he was able to arrange a visit quickly and resolve the problem very efficiently for us. In addition to being extremely capable at resolving all IT issues James Broomfield is also very organised, responsive, efficient and personable. I would highly recommend him - as I have to several friends over the years. .

Set up software protection on new laptop/ transferred files from old laptop
James was highly recommended by my neighbour who has been using him for many years. James recommended software protection for my new laptop and set it up. He transferred many files from my old laptop to my new laptop very quickly. He also transferred photos from my camera. He responded promptly and professionally to my initial enquiry. He was very personable and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend James.

Moving over to next level Microsoft Office
I hate Microsoft, I really do. But James has set it up for me to make it much easier. He always listens to my concerns when essential upgrading is required and always makes it easier for me. i've now got an option of exploring Firefox that doesn't seem too scary as well as Google (my preferred option). James has also made lots of useful adjustments. You can guess I'm not a techy person so It's great to have someone who can simplify it all.

Thouroughly deserves the WHICH commendation
Jamie transferred all my files & software to a new PC as my old one could not run Windows 11. He interacted with me and clearly explained all the stages of the tfr. He is knowledgeable, thorough and methodical and will spend as much time as the job takes without rushing through it. Compared to some of the jobs i read that he undertakes mine was relatively small but i still felt like a valued customer. He is very polite and didn't mind all my silly questions. A real bonus is that he does home visits and that is good from the perspective of anyone concerned about leaving their devices away from home. The job was done at the agreed time and cost and considering it avoided me having to make two trips to a high street store, to take and then collect my pcs and be without them for a while i think his charge was very reasonable. I will now make him my first point of call for any future tech services. One point for the WHICH website managers - it took me a lot of guessing at trader titles before i hit on the correct trader title to flag up - Our Techincian. Maybe where applicable traders could be flagged under all relative titles

New Laptop
When our old laptop stopped working we didn't know what to do. We found James at Our Tech on check a trade and we were really happy with him. He is polite, professional, clearly understands what he's doing and sorted us quickly and efficiently. We now have a lovely new laptop that works really well and have the added bonus that we know we can ring James if we have a problem.

No Internet
James as always responded to our call speedily and efficiently in his as always positive manner. Our internet was being recognised by all our other devices but intermittently was dropping out on my laptop each time for a few hours. Then it dropped out for out for a few days. I needed the internet restored asap as I had a planned shared phone call with my son who lived abroad and his adviser when I needed to access documents. James saved the day restoring my internet and tidying up a few other issues caused by careless use. James is professional, polite and great at explaining issues. We know he is never more than a call or message away
