Extraordinary CSSI
CSSI helped us to recover family photos dating back to the early 2000’s after a laptop crash. Data recoveries were attempted by two other companies with no success. After 5 years of keeping the drive safe, I heard about CSSI. I recieved extraordinary quality and dedicated service from CSSI. Michelle, Zahra and the rest of the team are truely special and highly skilled professionals. Communication, updates and support at the highest level. Thank you so much.

Letter of Appreciation to CSSI
LETTER OF APPRECIATION TO CSSI In early September 2026, my external hard drive, which contained my only backup of priceless data, including treasured photos, videos and music, suddenly stopped reading. My IT Technician was unfortunately unable to recover my data and subsequently referred me to CSSI. I contacted CSSI on 3 September 2026, and Leah kindly sent me an email detailing the recovery process. On 8 September 2026, I returned the signed forms and handed in the faulty drive together with my destination drive. I was warmly welcomed at reception by two friendly, helpful and professional ladies, Leah and Michelle. A complimentary Failure Report was conducted, and I received the quotes later that same day. Unfortunately, the cost exceeded my budget, and I advised CSSI that I could not afford to proceed with the recovery at that stage and would therefore collect my drives. At approximately 16h00 that afternoon, Leah called me to find out what my budget was. A discount was app****, but unfortunately the revised amount was still beyond what I could afford. On Wednesday, 9 September 2026, I returned to CSSI to collect my drives. Michelle kindly offered to see what they could do for me. She returned to reception shortly afterwards and advised me that CSSI had agreed to meet me at my budget. I paid 50% of the agreed amount, and the recovery proceeded. An appointment was then arranged for 08h30 on Friday morning, 11 September 2026, to view and approve the recovered data. I was absolutely delighted to see my precious data had been recovered, and approval was granted for it to be saved onto my destination drive. At 12h00 midday, I paid the remaining 50%, collected my drive and had the pleasure of finally meeting Zahra, the Recovery Engineer who had worked on my data. My sincerest appreciation goes to Zahra Abbasvandi, Data Recovery Engineer, as well as your two Directors of First Impressions, Leah Phasha and Michelle Mapimbiro. All three of these ladies provided exceptional and professional customer service and went far beyond what I expected to assist me during what was an extremely stressful and emotional situation. I cannot thank you enough for your kindness, understanding and willingness to help me recover something that is truly priceless and irreplaceable to me. May you all be blessed in abundance! Thank you, CSSI, for not only recovering my data, but for the compassion and care you showed me throughout the entire process.

Hard drive crash recovery
CSSI managed to recover critical data that we lost due to a hard drive crash, this was a specialised service that we really appreciated. I would reccomend using them for any data loss services. A big thanks for Michelle & Zahra for helping every step of the way with excellent communication.

Data Recovery results beyond expectation
CSSi South Africa provided outstanding data recovery service when I thought all hope was lost. Their team was professional, responsive, and incredibly skilled — they recovered crucial files from a failed drive faster than expected, with clear communication every step of the way. The ISO-certified lab setup and high success rate really show in the results. Highly recommend CSSi to anyone needing reliable data recovery or storage solutions in South Africa — true experts who deliver!

Amazing Service and Pricing, but the delivery was WOW today. Same day service
Absolutely outstanding experience i had with CSSI today! Their hard drive pricing is unbeatable and I was searching everywhere and many places have no stock on drives. Genuinely the best I hav found anywhere in SA, and it made upgrading my studio NAS server a relief as we about to go into Easter productions. I placed my order for multiple drives around 7am on their website this morning, and they delivered it all the same day which was a big surprise as I was not expecting any delivery today, let alone a deliver i placed few hours ago. Kathlego, the driver was super friendly. I finally found my supplier for fast and great pricing and could only rate them 7 stars if I could and definitly be back for more storage needs. 5 stars all the way! Thank you CSSI
