Maui Computer Care — Local services in Maui

Let me start by saying, do not seek advice from the internet unless you really know your techie stuff. I should have known that the problem with my computer was above my pay grade. I am a great bookkeeper, but I do not know how to fix a computer. So, using advice from you tube, I thought I killed my laptop at the end of the month when I had multiple bank statements to reconcile. After getting absolutely no sleep that night, I looked online and found Maui Computer Care. I took my laptop there on Monday morning April 1st and I have to tell you I really felt like an April fool. When I arrived I found a very empathetic, knowlegable and tech savy person named Kim Herrera. She put me at ease immediately and left me with a feeling of hope. She called me the next day and told me that I needed a solid state hard drive, mine had worn out. I picked up my computer mid day on Wednesday April 3rd. My ever so slow and tedious laptop boots up quickly, I had no data loss and I am able to complete my work in a fraction of the time It was taking me while my laptop was struggling. All of this for an extremely reasonable price which was far below what a new basic laptop would cost, not to mention transfering of my data to a new machine. Thank you so much Kim, I'm so grateful that I chose...

I am so glad I found this repair shop.

I have an older laptop that I use for work. It works just fine. Long story short, it fell onto the floor, and the monitor broke. Wince

I dropped into Maui Computer Care after finding them on Google (with the wrong address, mind you, so make sure you go to 283 Lalo Street in Kahului). I was thinking there may not be anything to be done, but Kim (the owner) took my laptop, dug through a bunch of old laptops she had on hand, and replaced my monitor! It was ready to go in less than a week.

Plus, she gave me the part for free, and only charged me labor - $100.00!

Kim has been running Maui Computer Care for at least 20 years, so she knows all the ins and outs. As an environmentalist, I appreciate that she is willing to fix things that are fixable, rather than just tossing them.

When I left, I told Kim she'd saved my job - and it's true! I really didn't have $800.00 to spend on a new laptop.

Thank you, Kim and Maui...

My computer froze up and crashed! Wouldn't go past the blue screen, and something was preventing me from getting to my desktop. Maui Computer Care was the only place I could find that was able to retrieve my lost files and pictures. I had 8,000 photos on my desktop, from my world travels, and Kim was able to save them and back them up. She organized my files, retrieved them, and my computer is running so amazing now. The price was beyond fair, and she is a true gem here on Maui! Thank you so much!! I can not even emphasize the importance this means to me, because my art is my living, and 1000's of hours spent on editing my work. 8,000 Mahalos!! and a hug from me!! She's...
