IT repair: Hardware and software services for your electronics

We solve your IT problems quickly and reliably

  • Fast fault diagnosis
  • Repairs in our service center
  • Data security in accordance with the highest standards  

When computers and IT systems come to a standstill, it quickly becomes expensive: you lose time and resources, and important processes grind to a halt. It’s good to have someone on hand who knows what they’re doing.
LGI ensures that your technology is up and running again quickly—with services that are tailored to your business. From replacing individual components to entire device series, we take care of repairs, maintenance, software updates, and data backup. Technically proficient, GDPR-compliant, and reliable in our service center.   

What is IT repair?

Defective devices, faulty software, damaged components: when IT fails, your business comes to a standstill. A professional IT repair service has your back: from replacing individual components to troubleshooting technical problems. From maintenance and software installation to support for entire device series: a well-thought-out IT service concept ensures that failures are quickly remedied, data is reliably backed up, and devices are made ready for use again.

The right solution for your electronics

LGI offers customized and value-added services tailored to the individual needs of your company.
We provide comprehensive additional services for electronic devices from a single source. Whether assembling complete servers, rolling out POS systems (administratively and technically), or installing and training at the customer’s site, we take care of software installation, testing, and certification.

We also ensure that the goods are delivered on time. Your devices are installed and maintained on site by trained technicians who are flexible in their deployment. Our electrical engineers and logistics professionals reduce costs and risks in the distribution of electronic hardware.

At the end of use, we organize the return transport of old devices. Our solutions include recycling, refurbishment, or disposal. This allows you to concentrate on your core business. For resale through our partner network, we will of course determine the residual value for you.

Your questions about LGI’s IT repair service

Where can I find help with IT problems?

You can get support from service partners such as LGI. We take care of defective devices, faulty software, or failed systems. We repair your devices in our own repair area—efficiently and in compliance with GDPR. This means you avoid long downtimes thanks to fast repairs in our service center.

How much does a PC repair cost?

The cost depends on the amount of work involved. LGI makes its prices transparent: you receive a concrete estimate in advance and only pay for services actually rendered. Even with larger device inventories, the cost remains transparent and the repair economical for you.

When does it make sense to repair a laptop?

If a laptop no longer works smoothly but is still technically repairable, repairing it usually pays off. You save costs, avoid electronic waste, and extend the service life. If the device still has a relevant residual value after three to five years, remarketing may also be a good option.

Is an external IT repair service worthwhile for my company?

Yes, especially when your own IT resources are limited. External professionals take care of troubleshooting, repairs, and recommissioning. This saves time and ensures smooth operations. LGI takes care of this directly at your company. This relieves your internal IT department and allows you to focus on your core business.

How important is data backup really when it comes to repairs?

During repairs, data can quickly be lost due to defective hard drives, software errors, or when components are replaced. An up-to-date backup protects against data loss. That’s why LGI checks the condition of the data before proceeding and helps with the backup directly on site.

Is the expense of IT security in small businesses even justified?

Definitely, because smaller companies in particular are targeted when basic protective measures are lacking. An attack can quickly paralyze the entire business. Professional IT protection does not have to be a major project: LGI supports you with solutions that fit your everyday needs – compact and implementable from our own repair department. This allows you to avoid unnecessary risks and follow-up costs.

What other services does LGI offer?

LGI supports you far beyond traditional IT repairs: from product completion and customer-specific packaging to software installation. Our technicians ensure the professional installation and maintenance of your devices—efficiently and in compliance with GDPR regulations in our own service center. If necessary, we also carry out repairs in our repair department. In addition, we take care of the collection, storage, and return of your IT hardware.
