Had an awesome experience with matnet. Thank you so much for helping recover my PhD research. Saved my life and years of hardwork! Data recovery itself took a day after 4 days of testing/assessment (which, in retrospect was fine since recovery takes over a week at some other places), staff was professional and always polite. Krithika was a pleasure to deal with. I find that only the communication aspect could have been improved since majority of the communication was initiated by myself even though the service provider promised to call at certain times but never did. This however could be due to being busy since they have a broad client base, amongst other things. Thank you Matnet!
