Psinergy TechWarrior St. Paul has earned the service industry’s coveted Angie’s List Super Service 2014 Award, reflecting an exemplary year of service provided to members of the local services marketplace and consumer review site in 2014. This is the fourth consecutive year they have won this award. Albeit a technology company, Psinergy is focused on sustainability. André
Thomas, co-owner and lead computer therapist, states, “Just like the human being, computers need things like wellness checks (tune-ups), a strong immune system (up-to-date anti-virus software) and de-stressing routines (defragging). When things go awry, you want someone who specializes in bringing it back to optimal health. That’s what we do, and it will help your computer last longer and you’ll be happier with it.” Co-owner SchaOn Blodgett says, “When you come to us, it’s a completely different experience. Stepping into our Computer Rehabilitation Center, it’s not the cold, dead, techy feeling most are used to. We have plants, organic tea and coffee and a friendly smile and personality to boot. We really show that even in this tech-inundated world, we can still honor the nature around us.” According to Angie’s List Founder, Angie Hicks, “Only about 5 percent of the computer repair and services companies in the Twin Cities have per- formed consistently well enough to earn our Super Service Award. It’s a really high standard.” Service company ratings are updated daily on Angie’s List. Companies are
graded on an A through F scale in areas including price, professionalism and punctuality. Members can find the 2014 Super Service Award logo next to com- pany names in search results on
