The Best Repair Management Software

We know how important your tech is to you and how quickly you need to have it back. That’s why we offer many same-day repairs where possible. Whatever you need in terms of repair, we always keep you up to date using dedicated software called RepairDesk. In this blog, we explain how we manage your repair with our repair management software.

How we manage your repair

RepairDesk*is designed specifically for tech repair specialists to enable professionals like us to keep our customers up to date. The advanced capability means that your updates are also in real-time. At Gadget Rehab, we have been operating this repair management software for eight years. This is key to how we manage your repair.

As a customer, your first experience with this software is when we book your repair. The ticketing system means you receive a unique ticket number. This allows us to allocate the right time, technician and completion date for your repair. We can also take a photo of your device before we start any work as a record for us and you. Which is saved to the software.

 

Creating a Repair Checklist

The next step is to create your repair checklist, which we also complete using the RepairDesk repair software. This checklist allows us and you to see the progress and status of your repair. The status changes as we go through the repair process. We will even email you at key stages of the process, so you know where we are.
Once the repair has been completed, you will receive a notification by email of its completion. This will be updated on your ticket and reflected on the job status. We also provide you with the option to sign digitally creating a record for both you and for us. This allows us to build a full history of our customer experience and a reference point for future appointments and repairs. At Gadget Rehab, how we manage your repair is the first step to building a positive customer experience.

The best gaming accessories

Best gaming accessories to enhance your experience

Gaming is no longer the reserve of kids playing against themselves to pass the time. The genre has evolved significantly in recent years and now boasts a global online community. With this expansion in popularity and time spent playing, gaming accessories have also developed. The best gaming accessories will enhance your experience and provide you with the very best ergonomic tools of the trade.

1. Gaming Headset

A comfortable headset is a must to allow you to immerse yourself in the game and concentrate on your play. We would recommend one that supports stereo sound, so you are able to connect sound with the visual. A headset which has a high-quality microphone is also a must to communicate with other players. Options include both wireless and cable connected.

2. Gaming Chair

If you are spending a lot of time gaming, then a supportive chair is an essential item to enhance your experience. When choosing a gaming chair, look for one which has a high back to support both your back and neck and if it has additional supports even better. Your gaming chair should also have adjustable arm rests and seat height as a minimum but many also have the ability to tilt the seat position.

3. Graphics friendly Monitor

Playing the game is only half the enjoyment. Many games now pride themselves on sharp and technically advanced graphics which are best viewed on a high quality monitor. Many companies have developed monitors specifically for this purpose and come in a range of sizes.

4. Gaming Controller

Using a suitable gaming controller will allow greater dexterity and an overall more comfortable experience. There are many options including Bluetooth available and come with rechargeable batteries for hours of play. Choose one which is most responsive to the types of games that you play.

5. Gaming Desk

A suitable gaming desk, like a gaming chair, will enhance your playing experience and ensure that your posture remains healthy. Being hunched over a table that is the wrong height or size can cause neck and back pain. Gaming desks can be adjusted to suit the player and often come with storage or hooks for your other gaming equipment.

We have the knowledge and skill to make sure your gaming machines remain working correctly and efficiently. If your machine or system is in need of repair, contact us and will be make an appointment. We offer repairs to all makes and models and carry out all our work on site.

DJ equipment what you need to get started

DJ Equipment – What you need to get started

There is a vast choice when it comes to DJ equipment but when you are looking to take the first leap, where do you start?

With lots of choice and little knowledge, there’s a lot of scope to spend money on items that are unnecessary or just won’t fit your needs. There are lots of options ranging from budget friendly buys to state of the art megabucks kits and the task of choosing can seem daunting. To help point you in the right direction, we outline our guide to getting it right when you are digital DJ beginner.

Step 1 – what do you need the DJ equipment for?

It is always advisable prior to any purchase is to keep in mind what you need the DJ equipment for. If this is purely your hobby, then there is no need to level up to professional grade kit. However, if this is a hobby that you hope to develop into a side hustle, and then a full-time career, your kit will need to be flexible and adaptive to reflect this.

Step 2 – The right foundation

Most people regardless of whether the equipment is for their hobby or with a longer-term career goal in mind will need a DJ Controller. This basic piece connects with your laptop, speakers and headphones to control your DJ software. The set-up of a DJ controller is a simple and quick process and is beginner friendly. This means it is a great place to start when you are getting to grips with all elements. Prices start at around £250 for a good quality DJ controller which has several features.

In terms of the DJ software, there are some great options which allow you to mix several decks and provide you with the ability to add real creative flair to your work. There are options for Mac and PC as well as IOS and Android. We would advise you to do your research but some great options for beginners are Rekordbox DJ, Serato DJ Pro, Ableton Live and Traktor Pro.

Step 3 – Adapting to your needs

If you think you will need a little more flexibility with your equipment, then a CDJ and mixer combination would be a great purchase. Despite the name, a CDJ will play all music formats allowing you to use different sources to create your mix. A CDJ and mixer allows you to add to your kit and upgrade, when necessary, when your needs change. Using two pieces of kit will of course cost you more initially however this does give you some future protection. Alongside these pieces of kit, you will also need a laptop, speakers, headphones and DJ software or apps.

If you are looking for any advice on purchasing DJ equipment, then contact us. If you have DJ equipment that is need of repair or upgrading, then book an appointment with one of our skilled technicians here.
