Brought in my computer after I tried everything I could think of. Turns out my drive that had Windows installed corrupted, Dan guided me in buying the correct drive and gave me other tips on better supporting my computer. Thank you!

I seldom post reviews for work done to anything. However, Dan saved my mental state after being locked out of my computer. No nonsense, just a great job done in getting me back on line and now able to log on. Again, great service.

Dan worked remotely with "Team Viewer" app and had it solved in a few minutes. He has worked for me before, both in-home and remotely, and wouldn't accept any payment for this quick fix. Nice guy and very professional.

I am happy and pleased with his work. He cleared all the nonessentials from all my computers, found solutions to my e-mail issues, got my new back up external drives working, solved my external speaker issues and checked to be sure I didn't have any lurking problems. I highly recommend him. He is definitely my go to person now.

Dan came to my home, was prompt, courteous. Fixed the issue and gave me some other (free) advice. Very happy to know this person exists! Will most certainly hire him again.

everything went smoothly.  Dan explained what he was doing as he worked and he answered all of my questions.

I will call on him again when I need help with my computer.

Dan was great.  He identified that we needed a new hard drive, got us one and set it up with windows and all of the software we needed.  We needed to have a set of recovery discs sent from Lenovo to install the new hard drive, and they sent defective discs not once, but twice!  Dan weathered a series of very frustrating dealings with Lenovo, made multiple trips to our office and spent many hours to make sure sure we got up and running again.  He had creative solutions to the problems that came up and charged us a very reasonable price for all of his time.  We would not hesitate to recommend him.

I had been having a problem with Time Warners Wifi here in Westchester for sometime. Time Warner just told me to by network extenders for all my rooms. I new this was ridiculous as we just moved 4 years ago from a 3000+ sq ft home in Culver City and never had a problem. We downsized to a 2100 sq ft single story home and they changed our equipment to "newer equipment". I finally got fed up when my new Ring Doorbell was not working properly. I found a "Angie's List" Deal With W LA Computer Expert Dan and he is GOOD! Dan came out and we called Time Warner and he took ever and dealt with them directly about their equipment and its capabilities. At first they denied and then the equipment mgr. acknowledged that the modems are not AC compatible. So from there I decided to purchase my own equipment on Dan's advise and when it arrived he came out and he installed everything and checked the health of my laptop and computer as well. I highly recommend West LA Computer Expert "Dan" he is very easy to work with and understand. He has great patients with us technically challenged as well :)

He was excellent and efficient. He took some stuff home too so that he could work on it so that it would not take more time. He worked with me on the price as well and I paid a couple hundred dollars total.

Dan Zivetz was great!  the fact that he comes to your home is especially good, and that he came on a Saturday was awesome.
And all his work was tops.

Whenever I sign on to Angies List I am asked to review this, whatever it is. I can't get rid of it without writing a review. I'm sure they're very nice people but I have never used them, and would not use them since they are no where near me. Maybe now the pop up review request will disappear.

I have use Dan Zivetz of West LA Computer Fix for all my computer issues. He has all the skills and training needed to fix any computer needs. The main thing about Dan I like is that he will spend whatever time is needed even if its half a day. Myself and my wife are not great with computers but Dan takes the time to explain everything, their is no one better then Dan Zivetz.

Dan Zivetz was very focused, effective, and businesslike.  When it comes to setting up blogs, I am a novice.  I had a very simple problem, post a document with charts, and get comments.   From our first contact, Dan guided me though the WordPress and BlueHost process by email, and after a meeting at a local Starbucks, my simple little blog was set up.  There were several difficulties in the set up process but Dan quickly found ways to surmount all these problems.  I hope to use his services again the the future

Dan is the best!  He's so patient, and takes time to properly follow all the steps to troubleshoot problems and find solutions.  His prices are very reasonable.  I intend to call on his services again anytime I have future computer issues...which is often!
