I owe many thanks to Bob and the techs at Taking IT Mobile. They were able to recover virtually all the data from a laptop hard drive that crashed unexpectedly recently with some important photos and files that had not yet been backed up. Their service was fast and professional, and was much appreciated! I am so relieved to see photos again that I feared had been lost forever. Hopefully I will not require their services again myself anytime in the near future, but now I know who I can recommend!

There's a certain sinking feeling one gets when suddenly they lose all their data with no warning. Gut wrenching. See, I write a lot. From school work to heavy philosophy and psychology content, short stories, screen plays.heck, one would think I would back it all up, but I didn't.

My brother (computer wiz) came over, took out the SSD from my Acer Predator Helios 300 which the day before crashed, LED battery lights were not turning on, no warning signs, nada. And so, my brother took out the SSD, found out it wasn't connected to the motherboard which is a good sign.that was until BIOS didn't detect it. He called Bob and his team at Taking IT Mobile.

Within 45 minutes, Bob was at my door to pick up the SSD. Later that day, I got an email with updates saying there was some damage, but that the techs feel there's a good chance at recovery. 2 days later, Bob shows up with all the data recovered. Years of critical work (work that I hope one day could change the world) has been restored. Huge thank you to Avi, the technician, and to Bob and his team.

My experience working with this company was less than satisfactory!
After paying over 1000 dollars for "two" failed attempts and listening to endless excuses, the data returned to me was completely useless. It is a big mess with no structure. The files are all over the place, half of them are just temp files.
I do not recommend them and I suggest strongly to stay away from them.

Have been using this company about 8-9 years now for my own business. Bob and staff have always have gone above and beyond to get whatever storage media picked up, diagnosed and recover lost data (if possible), I have and will continue to refer them! I'm extremely grateful that such a business exists which still has old school values such as integrity, honesty and high moral values for their customers!

While I was working on a photo book based on a trip of a lifetime with my Dad, my hard drive stopped. And of course, I did not back up the pictures. I was referred to Taking IT and Bob called me immediately to walk me through all my options. Communication was constant and timely and I was kept up to date thorough out the process. Bob was able to recover all my data on my hard drive. Furthermore, i had the recovered data and the the new hard drive much faster than I anticipated. Overall, a fantastic experience. Thanks Bob.and the photo book is complete.

Bob was such a great help and always went out of his way to deliver the best service and solutions. Taking IT Mobile was fast, efficient and most importantly they got the job done!

I had an old "my passport" that stopped working. I brought it to a local recovery guy and he referred me to Bob as it seemed that it was an internal piece that broke. Bob called me for a free estimate and gave me a very detailed idea of what he thought was wrong with the hard drive (he hadn't seen it yet) he took his time to explain it to me in simple terms which I appreciated because it didn't seem like he was trying to hide any information from me. Once he got the hard drive he sent me another detailed email explaining what was wrong, how to fix it and 3 different options for repair and recovery at different price ranges and time to fix it. After I decided Bob updated me the entire time, from when they received the broken piece to when it seemed they could recover the files. Bob and his team were able to get everything for me! I was ecstatic! The biggest surprise for me is when Bob hand delivered my new external hard drive to my house to ensure that this new hard drive wouldn't be damaged and he gave me good tips to ensure this wouldn't happen again. Recovery is always expensive but having Bob give me an option that saved me a couple 100 dollars was great. Thank you bob and your team.

I can't thank this company enough for what they did to retrieve 100% of the data from our hard drive which our two-year-old pulled off a high table! Needless to say we had so many things on it and learned a very valuable lesson about backing up The Back-up! From the moment the hard drive was sent to you your professionalism was over-the-top! I felt like it was in the right hands from the very beginning with the explanation of the steps from literally the pickup to the finished results! We are very grateful and if anyone goes through a similar circumstance you are in very good hands! Thank you, Stella
12 April 2020 13:06
Bob and his team are top notch. They were able to retrieve everything I asked for. Service was great. From the moment I contacted them to the end result of recieving my lost data and photos. I highly recommend them. I couldn't be happier with the result and the cost was more than fair. They were excellent from start to finish.
31 March 2020 4:03
Thank you for saving our Hard Drive! All 130,000 files! We are so pleased with your professionalism and of course the outcome!
29 March 2020 4:01
Our laptop that had every picture we had ever taken our our son, from pregnancy to birth, every birthday, family trip and occasion, and is crashed! I took the hard drive to a local IT and he didnt specialize in data recovery and highly recommended Taking IT mobile. They quickly responded and sent a courier to pick up my hard drive. Bob got back to me right away and explained my options and what the possibility was for recovery and the cost. I reached out to other data recovery companies to compare the price and taking IT mobile was the best price and was quick and responding and friendly. Bob quickly got to work and I am so thankful to say all my pics were recovered! I have learned to save my pics on a cloud and external drive just in case. It was costly to recover my pics however the pictures and memories are priceless. I highly recommend Bob and would definitely use them again if needed. Thanks for saving my memories!

Let me just say this: the people at Taking IT Mobile are Wizards! Not only does this company have some of the best service I've ever experienced, but they were able to retrieve ALL of the data off a very broken disk which I had assumed to be a lost cause. Furthermore, they did so for a price that was half of what I expected to pay before I went to them! These guys also have some of the fastest service I've ever experienced: after I gave them my disk, it took them a day to get back to me with a preliminary diagnosis and a quote, and then another day to get all the data off and deliver it back to me. The service is made even more incredible by the fact that they actually come to your door to pick up and drop off your broken disk. For my case, the guy who picked up/dropped off my disk was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and he was the one who communicated with me throughout the entire process over phone and email. As soon as any updates occurred, he immediately phoned me to let me know and keep me in the loop. If anyone in the GTA needs a data recovery service, you don't need to look anywhere else.

So stoked! Totally broke my external hard drive with all my family photos from the last 8 years of our life on it. Bob at T. I. M.was able to rescue all of the photos and files! I feel like he returned something more precious than data to me and my family, he was able to restore our memories!
Thanks Bob. Great service, great price, and wonderful communication during the entire process all the best going forward. Next up will be that ipod my kid crushed lol

After more than 30+ years of computing at home I had got very sloppy at back-up so panic when several days ago my hard disk crashed. Fortunately after two days of worrying how to recover two years of data my repair resource told me about Taking It. Within 2 hours of my call Bob was at my front door to pickup my shot hard disk. Two days he was back with a USB stick with my precious data!
Very grateful for his excellent service very easy to wholeheartedly recommend Taking It

I fried my laptop hard drive trying to clone it in 2003.
Had a few techs look at the drive and try recovering my data at the time with no success. It's been sitting in my desk drawer gathering dust for the last 17 years. My son surprised me at Christmas this year with a thumb drive containing all my long lost photos, emails and misc files. He had hired T. I. M Mobile Data recovery to repair and retrieve all my precious data that I had given up on almost two decades ago! It was like opening a time capsule! Thank you Lawson and
5 Stars to T. I. M. Mobile Data Recovery!

I am beyond pleased with Taking IT Mobile Data Recovery! Second time loyal customer. From friendly and efficient customer service to skilled artisan in data retrieval. They took my external harddrive (slipped and fell about 18") and diligently retrieved exactly the data (folders of raw files) that I needed. Truly a Photographer's life saver! I am so happy they took care of my information with respect. Bypass the big names like Best Buy and you'll be thankful. I trust them entirely. If they can get it, they will. 10/10 recommend!

They even delivered my recovered data - saved to new drive - to my house which is incredibly helpful! (Always remember to additionally pass the professionals a good drive with the correct amount of space for a data transfer.) Even with delivery, the overall service price is still far more affordable than other competitions.

If you fear your drive has died (mine said "cyclic redundancy check") and know you need a recovery, only go to Taking IT Mobile. In 2014, I was working on a drive that suddenly halted (was just sitting still and stopped working). Best Buy turned me away entirely (and their prices were more expensive for a regular data transfer). I found JTG Systems who was willing to take care of me. They confidently knew Taking IT Mobile was the best option. When I (unfortunately) needed a data recovery again, I knew who to visit. I am completely confident in the skills of Taking IT Mobile.

Our 5 years old WD outside hard drive stopped working without notice. Valuable info included tons of pictures of our grown children needed to be recovered. Mobile Data recovery exceeded our expectations. All data was recovered in less than 3 days with reasonable for non commercial customers like us price. Thank you Bob for perfect service!
19 February 2020 6:28
I randomly came across Taking IT mobile, I was in need of a professional to help me move my boot drive information safely to a new drive, the old drive was causing me issues and I was worried if I did it myself I would cause more issues. After reaching Bob and his team by leaving a voicemail to inquire about what they could do, he reached me back promptly and offered to pick up my drive the next day, with the promise to pay only with a recovery I was satisfied with I was hoping it would be successful, and it was, the team had managed 100% recovery with the promise to hold onto everything for a bit of time to ensure that I had zero issues.

It was a large expense finacially for me due to my situation but it was well worth recovering irriplacable data and work that I could have lost. I have my fingers crossed I won't have issues in the future but should I ever have data recovery needs I know the team to call and trust in this area. As of right now my computer is running perfectly and the new drive I had bought prior for the transition is running smoothly. Zero issues and very happy customer.

My thanks and appreciation goes out to bob and the team here that worked on my drive recovery and I hope if you have a need of data recovery then I hope they are equally successful with your needs as well.
06 February 2020 5:29
Recovered my fallen hard drive. Expensive, but totally worth it if you have valuable data that needs recovering. Thank you Bob!
06 December 2019 10:38
Bob and team are very accommodating and professional. They went above and beyond to make sure that I was informed and satisfied throughout the process. Though some files were unrecoverable, they really went above and beyond to recover the vast majority of files from a total train wreck of a drive! Customer service from this team is fantastic!
11 November 2019 2:13
Bob and his team worked tirelessly to retrieve the files on my hard drive, and were for the most part, successful. I did not hand them an 'easy' case, and I was impressed with how hard they worked under difficult circumstances. I will always be grateful!

The 1TB external drive I was using for all of my working files decided to stop working one day. I can't remember when the last time I backed-up was! PANIC! An acquaintance in the Durham College IT department forwarded Taking IT Mobile's number to me. Bob from TITM was here the next morning, picked up the drive and was on it the next day. I'm told their techs fought hard on my behalf. It took about a week before they were able to pull all but 11 corrupt files off of my drive and return them on a newer, faster drive. Unbelievable! I knew nothing about data recovery going in - other than I wasn't going to get much back and I'm going to lose my shirt. My experience with TITM was the exact opposite of that. Their rates were definitely the best and the results were better than anybody could hope for. Would recommend all day, any day. Thanks, Bob!
04 November 2019 13:46
The team at Taking It Mobile we’re very professional and efficient at recovering the data from my girlfriend’s damaged external drive. Bob kept us up to speed on the process and was always available to answer any questions or concerns we had. I would definitely recommend them!

When your life is sitting in front of you in a brand name external drive and your laptop top gives you an ‘unable to read drive’ message, your heart sinks because you did NOT do a secondary backup. I was referred to Tom’s outfit. He pulled no punches as far as expectations and price. That was all detailed extensively in an email to me. The ‘ball’ was in my court. The email was gladly discussed over the phone with Tom and the go ahead was given. Within 5 working days Bob found a hard drive match and worked his magic and provided me with a new drive and every file copied over to it. Our schedules conflicted for a pickup so Tom, who was passing through my area, delivered the drive to my home. I hope I NEVER require his services again but would NOT go anywhere else if the need arises. Thank you Bob and the Taking IT Mobile Data Recovery team.

My external drive crashed while I was trying to back it up to another drive. It had the data and pictures from the last 15 years and I was so stressed and nervous about losing it. My computer repair person tried to retreive data but was unsuccesfull and forwarded it to Bob. He retrieved all the data and saved it to new external drive and this company has been life saver. Bob remained in touch from day 1 and informed about each step. I will say if anyone is in this situation do not go anywhere else to waste time and money, just go to Taking IT Mobile and contact Bob. They are the only one who are capable of safely saving you data. Extremely happy about there service.

We recently needed help to recover a crashed external hard drive. First, we tried a local computer repair shop, with very disappointing results. Most of the files were recovered but had NO names, leaving us with ~50K worth of unknown files to sort through. Then, we found Taking IT Mobile Data Recovery. Bob came to our office and picked up the damaged drive. Within 48 hours they had fully recovered our data and hand delivered a new external drive! A+ service. Thanks again!
29 July 2019 8:32
I highly recommend Taking IT Mobile Data Recovery. I have had to use their service twice and they were able to recover all my data both times. In both cases, I was blown away by their customer service. They responded to me immediately (on a weekend!), kept me well-informed throughout the process, and showed a genuine concern for helping recover my data as quickly and as cost-effectively as possible. The first time I used their service, I was living in Toronto. Now, I'm in Muskoka and was thrilled to find not only that they would still help me, but also that their level of service was the same as before - outstanding. I would not hesitate to trust them again in the future and recommend anyone with data recovery needs call them for a quote.
26 July 2019 12:55
How does one describe what it's like to have a broken drive? LOST. Totally lost especially if it has all your business, memories, and entire life on it. Not only did Bob and his team retrieve my data, but they helped repair me as they repaired the drive. I was nervous and skeptical anything could be done but listen to the reviews, these guys are awesome. This is an excellent company who doesn't try to rob you or deceive you, they are up front and talk you all the way through. Not only that, I was in the middle of nowhere and Bob was willing to meet me and then when I left the country, he was able to send me my info there too. Also, they don't delete your data for a few weeks to make sure you have everything which is stellar service. Highly recommend!
20 July 2019 13:55
Dealing with Bob and the team at Taking IT Mobile was a great experience. Losing a drive was painful, but thankfully Bob and the team managed to get ALL of my data back! My drive had defects on the platters, as well as logical issues (corruption/overwrite), so I'm VERY pleased with this company.

Communication, cost, turnaround time, and overall ease of process, all excellent. Bob kept me up to date the entire time, which added that extra level of service, for me. I felt that they treated my data/restore with a real sense of importance, care and commitment - this went a long way, and was greatly appreciated.

I highly recommend Bob/Taking IT Mobile team when/if you ever need a data recovery done!
11 July 2019 23:07
I had to ask for Bob's help already twice, because one of my thumb drives stopped working and another time my external hard drive was inaccessible.
Both times, Bob did an excellent job to assess the problem, provide an estimate and recover my data. What a live saver!
Especially the data recovery of the thumb drive was critical and I had not much hope for getting my data back, because another company told me that there was no chance of accessing the data. Well, Bob and his team did it nevertheless and this saved my day. Thank you so much Bob for your expertise and I can highly recommend Bob and the team of Taking it Mobile Data Recovery to anyone who needs a quick and reliable data recovery service.
27 June 2019 15:49
Great Service-reliable and responsible.
I was delighted to have may problem solved 100% effectively and efficiently.
Thank you IT Mobile and Thank you Bob.
22 June 2019 3:31
I was recently put in touch with Bob and his team after my macbook did a unauthorized software update which led me to lose all my files and pictures which to my stupidity were not backed up anywhere. I was praying the files could be recovered and did not want to think of the potential that all life's memories were gone forever. In stepped Bob and his team to save the day like real life super heroes. Kudos to you and your team for all the work you do and thank you from the bottom of heart for the recovery! I will always recommed Taking IT Mobile Data Recovery to all my family and friends.

Faced with a complete failure of a portable hard drive that contained approximately 20,000 photos, I was, to say the least, in panic mode. After multiple calls to many services that guaranteed complete data recovery, I was told by all that my drive was at best a small boat anchor. A sympathetic service provider recommended me to Bob at "Taking IT Mobile Data Recovery" who was a godsend. He and his team's calm and reassuring demeanor and professionalism not only saved 99% of my photos, they saved 10 years of once in a lifetime memories. I cannot say enough about this great gem of a company and I highly recommend them to everyone, bar none. Well done to Bob Maludzinski and the team.

Bob and his team have been my go-to Data recovery solution provider for over 15 years.
I have referred many customers to T. I. M.and they have all been happy with the service they received.
Honest and reliable. Excellent service.

I would recommend Bob and his team to anyone that needs data recovery. Thank you!
13 May 2019 5:15
This team was very focused on getting my data recovered from a very damaged hard drive. They kept me informed every step of the way and looked out for my best interest. I felt comfortable leaving my valuable data in their capable hands. Thank you Bob and the team
I just had a chance to review the entire contents of the recovered data. Wow! They recovered data I had forgotten was on the damaged drive.
I am twice as impressed. Too bad the star rating only goes up to five!
08 May 2019 9:50
EXCELLENT SERVICE!
Bob's responses were prompt and detailed. He kept me informed throughout the entire process. He even picked up and dropped off the drive. He was able to successfully recover the data from the damaged drive. Thanks!

I had the unfortunate experience of my external hard drive with years of photos and important documents on it crash. The folks at Taking IT Mobile Data Recovery did what their name says. They picked up the hard drive the following day and a few days later had all my data on a new hard drive.

Job well done.

Taking IT Mobile provided me with top notch and attentive service when i needed my data recovered. The recovery was successful and done at what i feel was a fair price.

Thanks, Ryan

One of my hard drives had stopped working and I was in panic mode that years worth of files were gone for good! Searching the internet, 'Taking IT Mobile' was the first company I called. I immediately set up an appointment to meet with Bob. Not having gone through this before, I was very cautious & nervous, but Bob put me at ease.

I was in constant communication during the process, with Bob emailing me updates on the situation. I was told there would be no charge, until they got a recovery that I said was good. A day later, Bob reported that the technicians working on the hard drive got a full recovery! I confirmed to proceed with transferring the recovered files to a new external drive & payment.

So I learned a lesson to back-up all my files. If you're serious in recovering your 'lost' files, TRUST that Bob & his team will do what it takes to help! Professional, friendly & quick service.:) Tony
16 April 2019 22:16
Amazing Service. The best I have Ever Used and i did try a few companies before. These guys are the only Data Recovery you can trust and work with.
07 April 2019 19:13
I dealt with Bob the whole time. He was extremely knowledgeable and always efficient. He kept me updated throughout the whole process. My hard drive had mechanical issues and lost over 5000 pictures and he was able to recover them all. I highly would recommend Bob to anyone! He even picked up and dropped off my hard drive directly at my home. What fantastic service!
02 April 2019 5:08
I have had 2 amazing experiences with Bob and his team at Take IT mobile. Both times it was for my ancient Mac desk top. It was old and fried and I had not backed any of the thousands of photos I had on the computer. They were successfully recovered and transferred onto an external hard drive and a terabyte of space was added. They have an amazing pick up and drop of delivery service. They worked efficiently and quickly and kept me updated as to the progress of the work. I would recommend them highly!
31 March 2019 23:55
Every time I have dealt with Bob and His team they have provided me with top quality service. Going out of their way to help my clients get their data back. I wont take my business any where else.
29 March 2019 3:17
I cannot begin to tell one and all about how highly I think of Bob and his team! Tremendous, reliable and trustworthy, service and advice.
27 March 2019 20:22
