Geeks on Call provides on-site computer solutions for small businesses that cannot afford to keep technicians on-staff and ordinary households whose computers have crashed. Warranties and manufacturer support  do not always provide the help a client may need. Often, problems have more to do with usability issues rather than a need to replace hardware, so Geeks on Call steps in with a solution that traditional manufacturer support does not offer.

Among the services provided are computer repair, custom-built computers, network solutions and upgrades, as well as one-on-one training for people who don�t know where to begin when using computer equipment. Powered by a demand for tech support in a market where hardware lasts longer but problems like viruses and corrupted files have multiplied, Geeks on Call has thrived in the fastest growing sector of the computer industry.
