My tech from GoovyTek has been terrific. He is patient, knowledgeable, and explains things really well. I enjoyed learning new tools and features on my smart phone and computer. They have made doing things a lot easier and more enjoyable.

Zoom Holiday Gathering Tips
Planning for a non-traditional family get together this year?
Here are a few things to consider ahead of time to make sure everyone can connect on those special days. Zoom is a great option for video conferencing this holiday season's family gatherings.
Zoom's Basic personal meeting allows up to 100 participants. For most families, 100 participants are more than enough, however, if you need to host more than 100 family and friends, Zoom has tiered options that come at a cost, but will allow more people to join your holiday virtual celebrations.
Another option to use instead of Zoom is Google Meet. The main difference with Google is everyone has to have a Google account to join the Meet. Google Meet also has a limit of 100 participants with their "FREE" version and can extend to more for a cost.
If you don't want to be huddled around your computer while enjoying your virtual holiday party, you can cast your virtual hangout on your big screen television. There are several options on how to do this. Here are a couple of examples:
- 1. If you have an Apple computer and you have Apple TV on your television, you can "Airplay" (cast) your virtual hangout to your tv that way
- 2. If you have a PC and have a Google Chromecast on your Television, you can cast. your virtual hangout that way. Again, we know there is no substitute for getting the whole family together in person and enjoying holidays the traditional way but thinking a bit ahead of time about how to best connect everyone virtually can help us all spend some time together with our loved ones, no matter where they are geographically.
Make sure and Check out our Safety Tips for Zoom!
Client Reviews
We have had several help sessions with a GroovyTek trainer. WE could not be more pleased. My trainer takes all our questions and while answering types up his answers so even after he leaves, we can refer to his notes. I would recommend GroovyTek to any of my friends or family without hesitation. BTW, ALL the employees at this firm are extrememly knowledgeable and friendly.

GroovyTek has helped me, a 65 year old, learn how to do all sorts of things on my computer that I did not know about before. I had no one else to ask, and they have rescued me. It's so great to have a polite, friendly, knowledgeable person come to my house and teach me. What a wonderful service!
Margie C
The trainers are so friendly, and helpful. They certainly have lots of patience and knowledge. They make you feel so comfortable asking questions you would not dare ask your family to show you again how to do. They are always welcome in my home, sometimes I hate to see them go!

GroovyTek did a great job! My trainer was on time, professional and she solved my slow computer. Great job, GroovyTek! I will use your services again.

My tech is patiently bringing me (at age 79) into the computer age. I am so glad that I found him through GroovyTek. What a wonderful gift!
Judy K
I think your service is great! I have used it, and I booked 2 sessions for my 83-year old husband who bought himself a new Ipad, but didn't know how to use it. He's been ill, so it was a great help that you came to the house. Thanks for the service.
Susan S
Excellent help from our GroovyTek trainer. He spent an hour explaining issues that I was confronted with, on my computer, and corrected all my issues and problems. He was concise, knowledgeable and forthright and I will call on him and GroovyTek again whenever I need help and support. I highly recommend GroovyTek services!

It is comforting to know if you have technical problems there is a Hands On source to get help. These trainers listen to your problems, find solutions and work with you until you understand the solution, their patience is outstanding. This is a great way to not only solve problems but to learn about the ever-changing world of technology; there are class presentations, small group gatherings or one-on-one in your home with kind, friendly, people.

Very impressed with my trainer’s ability to provide thorough explanations and demonstrations. I have confidence now in knowing how to manage my photos, videos, and documents. I received my money’s worth of valuable instruction.
Cheryl M
Today was my first experience with GroovyTek and it was extraordinary. I learned so much over the course of the hour AND as importantly fixed the problem I was having. The trainer was intelligent and friendly. All support was given in a very collaborative way. I am looking forward to this partnership.
Barb S
I have always had the best computers that Apple offered, but the problem was that I never knew how to use them. Thanks to my GroovyTek trainer, my tech skills have increased exponentially and I am feeling more competent and confident with each lesson.
John B
Very pleased with the experience. Knowledgeable trainer who was most helpful. Highly recommend the service.
Michael M
Outstanding trainers with expertise and a lot of patience at a fair price. I have used them for two years and they have given me a much better understanding of the in's and outs of how to use many aspects of my computer. It is a pleasure to have them come to my home and work on my own computer problems.
Jerry P
I was so pleased to find GroovyTek. Although I am pretty tech savvy in some areas there are others where I need help. GroovyTek has helped me fill in that gap of information. I made an appointment to help me sync my devices and also help me learn how to organize my photos. The trainer was knowledgeable and able to explain things very clearly.
