NEW SETUPS TORQUAY
Stress-Free Device Setup in Your Torquay Home
New laptop still sitting in the box? You're not the first Torquay local to feel that way. Whether you're near Surf Coast Plaza, along The Esplanade, up past Grossmans Road, or out by Spring Creek, Tech on Demand has been helping locals since 2017 get new gear out of the box and actually working the way it should.
Here's what usually happens. You buy a new computer or tablet, get it home, and hit a wall of account creation, data transfers, and settings you don't recognise. The shop offered 'setup' that basically turned it on and connected WiFi. That's not real setup. For computers, your old machine gets fully cloned so the new one looks exactly like it. Same desktop, same files, same folders, same bookmarks, same everything. You open the lid and it feels like your old computer, just faster. No call-out fees like the big chains charge, no remote screen-sharing from someone interstate. Printers connected, accounts sorted, and everything explained before the visit's done.
Your New Device, Ready to Go
Personalised Setup, Not Just Power On
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 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.
