NEW SETUPS OCEAN GROVE
Got a new laptop still in the box on your dining table? That's a common sight around Ocean Grove. Whether you're near The Terrace, down by Kingston Park, over near Shell Road, or close to the Barwon River, Tech on Demand has helped locals since 2017 turn that unopened box into a device you'll actually feel confident using.
Look, here's what happens most times. You buy a new computer or iPad, get it home, open it up, and immediately hit a wall of password screens, account setups, and confusing options. The shop said they'd 'set it up' but that just meant turning it on and connecting their WiFi. Your files are still trapped on the old computer, your printer won't connect, and you're staring at a desktop that looks nothing like what you're used to. For computers, the old machine gets fully cloned onto the new one. Same desktop background, same folder layout, same bookmarks, same everything. You open the new laptop and it feels like your old one, just faster and more reliable. No call-out fees like Geeks2U charges for regional areas, no dropping your device off at a shop for three days. Printers get connected, email accounts sorted, and everything explained in plain English before the visit wraps up.
Buying a new device should feel exciting, not stressful. When you book a setup visit, Brayden comes to your home and handles everything from unboxing to personalisation. For computers and laptops, your old machine gets fully cloned onto the new one. That means your desktop background, folder layout, files, bookmarks, and saved passwords all carry over. You open the new laptop and it looks exactly like the old one, just faster. Email accounts, apps, and printers all get connected properly. The real value is what happens at the end. You get a proper walkthrough of your new device in plain English. How to find your files, how to use the apps you need, and what those new features actually do. Not a rushed handover, you'll feel confident using it on your own. Unlike dropping a device off at a Geelong shop and waiting days, everything happens right in front of you so you can ask questions as they come up. Most setups get completed in a single visit.

Brayden was extremely helpful with me with my new computer. Very patient and very understanding as I have no idea about computers. Highly recommend Brayden for anyone who is in need of any help whatsoever, as we have had Brayden here over the last few years helping us with my husband's computer so highly recommend.

Brayden at Tech on demand was so easy to communicate with. Very informative & helpful in regards to my MacBook. Even though it could not be repaired. He suggested new computer options I could look at. He also went out of his way to collect & drop my computer back to me. I would absolutely recommended Brayden for any computer needs.

Brayden visited my home last week and fixed all my tech issues with my PC and laptop. He managed to find back end connections we couldn't make sense of and remove them. Most importantly, he listened, understood my tech issues and fixed them all in an hour. I’ve been unlucky in this area with other IT people for the past few years, so I’m so very happy to have found Tech on Demand for all my tech needs. I will be recommending Brayden to all my friends.
