Report
I have worked in the past for a couple large companies with in house IT support and although both were good none have surpassed the level of Support we receive from SDTEK at the Company I am currently with. This company has an excellent group of employees and a work ethic and willingness to keep learning from their clients needs and adapting and growing with the companies they support. I am heavily involved with all aspects of CAD and Technology growth within my company so to have this level of support is incredible. Can't say enough good things about SDTEK

My company recently purchased a complete Digium Switchvox phone system (100+ phones) from SDTEK. The migration from the old phone system went smoothly. The team at SDTEK did most of the configuration tasks before hand which made it easy and painless at the time of installation. Switchvox is a great product and SDTEK is very professional and timely from giving quotes through post-implementation support. It is a real pleasure to work with Scott, Chris and the rest of the staff at SDTEK.

We've used SDTek for over six years and have been very happy with their services. We first hired them to install and support a phone system at a branch office, then merged that system into our corporate office. We've used their managed services to support ~60 desktops in San Diego and Boise (remotely). Their staff are friendly and knowledgeable. I can really count on SDTek to get what I need done without any hassles.

SDTEK does excellent work. Contact them if you have any need for PC tuning or fixing. They know what they are doing in every way! Give them a call for your computer needs. Scott really cleaned up my system and fixed a serious Outlook email problem. Thank you for such good service.
