About Us. Western Data Enterprises, Inc

Customer Feedback:

“Western Data has been with us since we started installing computers at our workstations. Western Data handled the installation of the server and knows how everything is supposed to be setup. We know that we can call Western Data and if our assigned engineer cannot come out to diagnose the problem, another engineer can come out and the problem will be fixed. If we have a problem of any kind, we know Western Data will address the issue and fix it. We can depend on Western Data to keep us working.”

“Western Data builds computers to our specifications, delivers, and sets up within days. We had a catastrophic hard drive failure in our file server. Within 24 hours, Western Data replaced the drive, restored the system, and had us working. Western Data is local, fast, reliable, and provides excellent service. I am very happy with the assistance Western Data provides.”

“All of our experiences with Western Data have been good. We have local hardware and software technicians assigned to us providing respectable response times. They provide quality hardware. We are very happy with our new network and networked print/copiers. This project eliminated our document management problems. The biggest benefit for us is a single source for hardware and the maintenance for it.”

“The most impressive attribute are the friendliness and prompt attention to any issues we have. Recently I arrive at work to find our file server was down – I called Western Data and within one hour the engineer was at our office and within an hour later we were back in business. The quality I most appreciate about Western Data is their rapid response.“
