Data Backup Solutions | Data Medics | Castle Rock & Denver Area

Christina and Daniel have helped me with computer problems in the past. Now, whenever I need work done on my computer, I don't even consider calling anyone else. When I had a friend decide to "fix" my computer (which was working just fine) without my knowledge I was left with a real mess - too big to explain. In desperation I called Data Medics at 7pm and to my surprise Christina answered the phone! She and Daniel were at my house an hour later. After a brief interview they packed up my computer. It required a complete wipe and reinstall of the operating system, programs and files. All was done in a timely and professional manner; all for a price that was too good to be true. I expected to pay 2 or 3 times as much as I was billed. Christina and Daniel really know what they are doing and are a delight to work with. Would not hesitate to use them again, wouldn't consider anyone else. In fact they are now doing some work for me on my laptop.

What is the most important thing on your computer? Your data! Parts and software can be purchased but you can't buy your memories in a store. Data Backup is the first thing we do as a part of our service to ensure that while your computer is in our hands, your data is safe. Once you computer leaves, however, you need to have a reliable backup method to avoid those Data Recovery fees. Just think of what is on your computer right now, could you afford to lose those business proposals, your e-mail, and pictures of your kids or all the music that you downloaded for $1 a piece? When you start to think about it, backing up may not be such a bad idea!

After a simple install, it looks and feels like part of your computer so there’s nothing new to learn.

When your computer is idle, it automatically backs up new and changed files. You don’t have to do anything!

You accidentally deleted or otherwise lost some of your files, it takes just a few clicks from your desktop to get them back.

Data Medics includes a backup setup as a part of the check-out process because while your data is safe while its in the repair center, we want you to keep your data backup up-to-date in case anything happens in the future. We use carbonite and believe you should too! Try the trial at carbonite.com for 15 days FREE!
