What Our Clients Are Saying About Our Services
EXCELLENT Based on 67 reviews ethan schwartz2025-08-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Started with LeadingIT as my IT support in October of 2024. Onboarding was a breeze. Then I just got a new laptop that I needed to have everything transferred and programs installed. Had some troubles with getting Citrix to run but they escalated and resolved the issue quickly. Thank you Geovel and Hissan. Yessica Orozco2025-07-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Geovel was great at assisting me with my issue on my computer. He was able to resolve my problem and I am now able to access my app fully without any issues. Village of Manhattan2025-07-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hissan did an excellent job troubleshooting my ticket and demonstrated strong knowledge throughout the process. He consistently followed up and collaborated effectively with our e-newsletter and website provider. He went above and beyond, even assisting with aspects that extended beyond his initial scope of support. While we didn’t reach a definitive answer, my concerns were more precautionary in nature, and we were ultimately satisfied with the troubleshooting process and the final bounce-back numbers from our most recent e-newsletter.

The LeadingIT team has been a pleasure to work with, and I could easily highlight the positive experiences I’ve had with each person I’ve interacted with. They’re prompt, capable, and quick to resolve IT issues. That said, I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with Vanessa on several projects and challenges, and her support has been truly exceptional. She’s knowledgeable, patient, and quick to grasp the core of any issue. Vanessa consistently provides clear, effective solutions and follows through reliably. Her professionalism and responsiveness have made a significant difference, and I’ve genuinely appreciated working with her. Thank you so much!
