In over 25 years of business, we have sold countless thousands of quality workstations, servers and peripherals to homes, offices, schools, governments, and large corporations. We have managed many infrastructure projects, both large and small, and our customers continue to come back to us because they know that our commitment to quality and service will never change.
No project is too small or too complex for us to execute, and our team especially enjoys tasks that have been qualified as “impossible” by others. Our headquarters may be located in downtown Winnipeg at 207 Fort Street, but we provide our services anywhere in the world.
Additionally, we have introduced AaaS (ANYTHING-as-a-Service) – equipment, infrastructure, services, networking, monitoring, hosting – pretty much anything you can think of, we can do, for a reasonable monthly fee. If you can dream it, we can do it!
Personal service
At our 207 Fort Street headquarters, you can drop by our office for a visit, for any necessary repairs, or to buy a cable, flash drive or other peripherals – we keep a healthy amount of stock locally.
Do you know where your data is?
Local tech support
We don’t use a call centre to answer our clients, and we don’t make you jump through a litany of hoops before we start working your case. You will talk directly to the qualified technical engineers who all live in Winnipeg and the surrounding area. If we need to come to your office to diagnose or fix something, we can. It doesn’t matter whether you have one computer or thousands in your organization.
We service anyone who appreciates what we have to offer!
Direct access
Some applications require direct access to our private data centre. Yes, we can accommodate! Our co-location options are customized to each client at very reasonable rates.
Focus on quality
In case we haven’t been clear, we are hyper-focused on quality. It is the core of our being and our guiding principle. We may not be the cheapest, but we like to say we’ve always been the best – at a fair price. Most importantly, we will NEVER upsell you on something you do not need!

Bee Maid Honey has relied on Forest Computers for years to support our I.T. requirements. They seek to understand our business so that they can provide the right I.T. solutions that suit our needs.
We have all been there with questions and concerns about our IT needs.
Paul and Stewart became my default IT go to folks at the office well over ten years ago.
This has been one of the best decisions ever, for our office and also our family IT needs. From network expansion, to upgrading and purchasing new systems, and also configuring them, Forest has taken care of all of our needs in a timely, and cost efficient manner. They are also able to break things down into language that non-tech people can actually understand.
We’ve used Forest for all of our IT needs for years and have always been beyond pleased with their services. From data security, adding new workstations, telephone services or any urgent situations, we’ve always been served promptly and professionally. They’ve come to be an extension of our own team.

Western Medical Clinic has been utilizing Forest Computers for our specialty IT needs for the past 8 years. They are always available on short notice and provide assistance remotely and/or in person when services are needed. I can rely on them to return my calls and emails in a timely and efficient manner.
They are well versed in our Electronic Medical Record software and know how to tweak problems, perform novel interfaces, and overall help us to use the system to its fullest potential. They come up with very innovative ideas to solve problems, e.g. streamlining our fax services and arranging incoming faxes in specific folders to minimize sorting and to avoid busy fax line signals.
I know that I can contact them at any time and be assured that they will listen to my concerns and provide the best advice to resolve any issues and ensure our business run efficiently and effectively.
I met Paul and Forest Computers in 2013, when I converted my medical practice fully to Electronic Medical Records. Paul was and continues to be, in one word, exceptional. In terms of hardware, the computer terminals were unobtrusive and silent. In terms of the setup, everything worked perfectly since day 1. Furthermore, he helped us set up secure remote access to our server.
Over the years, there has been not a single issue which he has not been able to resolve in a timely fashion. Some of these aspects have required upgrades to the system, remote access, backups or collaborating with other health institutions to provide better care for our patents. He is up to date in terms of equipment needs, new technology and software nuances. I wholeheartedly recommend Paul and his team at Forest Computers.
