Testimonials
Trusted by Houston's Leading Businesses
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our clients have to say about our partnership and impact on their success.
“ECS completely transformed our IT operations. Before partnering with them, we dealt with constant network issues and downtime. Now, everything runs smoothly, and we haven't had a single major incident in over a year. Their team is responsive, knowledgeable, and always goes above and beyond. Best IT decision we've ever made.”
“As a healthcare provider, HIPAA compliance and data security are absolutely critical. ECS not only helped us achieve full compliance but also implemented security measures that give us complete peace of mind. Their vulnerability assessments caught issues we didn't even know existed. Professional, friendly, and extremely competent—I recommend them to every medical practice I know.”
“What impressed me most about ECS is their attention to detail and commitment to understanding our unique needs as a law firm. They implemented a comprehensive IT solution including disaster recovery, secure file sharing, and phone systems—all while maintaining the confidentiality our clients demand. When we had a hardware failure, they had us back up in hours. Exceptional service.”
“We were paying way too much for subpar IT support from our previous provider. ECS came in, assessed our situation, and proposed a solution that cut our costs by 30% while dramatically improving our security and reliability. Their team explains everything in terms we can understand, and they're always available when we need them. They truly partner with us for success.”
“ECS doesn't just provide IT services—they provide solutions that drive our business forward. From implementing cloud infrastructure that lets our team work from anywhere to installing a phone system that integrates with our CRM, they've modernized our operations. Their proactive monitoring has prevented countless issues, and their response time is incredible.”
“I can't say enough good things about Efficient Computer Systems. They installed our entire office infrastructure—network, cabling, phones, cameras—and everything was done professionally with immaculate cable management. When we call with questions or issues, they're patient, friendly, and quick to resolve things. It's so refreshing to work with an IT company that actually cares about customer service.”
