Customer Testimonials

I had been looking for a new computer for quite a while now and had gone to look at both alienware and origin computers. What sold me on Puget Systems was the great customer service. I built the configuration I thought looked good then submitted it for review by their experts. Within a day I got an email asking what I wanted to do with the system. Not only did I receive suggestions on what to add to the computer to make it better for what I wanted, but also some suggestions on what to take away or change in order to make it cheaper and quieter. None of the other custom pc websites do that. Overall a great experience and Puget Systems can expect my business next time I need a new computer and my referral for anyone who is looking for a new computer.

When the HP Pavilion from 2006 stopped working due to the motherboard, I decided that I wanted a custom built computer that was specifically designed for reliability and stability and without a lot of tag-along software and gadgets. Well by luck and a good search engine, I happened upon Puget Systems and all the pieces fell into place. I told them what my basic goals were and they directed me straight to a custom built computer that matched every one of those goals. The Obsidian was the answer. And I love it! From start to finish, every step of the way, nothing but top-notch professional service and knowledgeable assistance. Thanks to Puget Systems, the company, the products, the personnel, their insight: I will be a customer for life!

I needed to get a new desktop pretty quickly when my 5 y/o big box system started getting glitchy. But I had been out of the market for a while and am not very current on the latest technology. I needed help aligning my current and future needs with a solid system at the best price possible. At first I was a little leery of being up-sold beyond my needs. But the sales approach use by Puget Systems staff is very supportive and I quickly realized I was in the good hands of a consultant who cared about me. I had a few questions, mostly about compatibility, which were addressed accurately, sometimes even after hours. That’s service!

The Spirit system I got is very fast and quiet. It has no bloatware in my face. And they provided a shell to hide Win 8.1 that is a dream. to use When I picked up the system i was shown the few things I needed to know, and was given a notebook that documents my whole experience from specs, through the build, metrics and testing, to photos. Being able to get on line and track the progress of my order made me feel a part of the process.

The bottom line is that I will go back for all my computing needs and won’t hesitate to recommend Puget Systems to anyone.

I emailed Puget Systems looking for a computer for photo and video editing, they made a quote and I added some special order parts. When it arrived it was very well packaged, it booted fast with nothing I didn’t ask for installed. Drivers and software up to date. I highly recommend Puget Systems. I will be buying all my computers from them. Their build log and customer service are great, they even included a custom binder with everything you need to get started.

Working with Puget Systems has been a completely satisfying experience. My Spirit computer arrived a little over three weeks ago and has been working fine from the start. I was not looking for a particularly unusual computer, but there were some components that I wanted and I did not want to have to buy a computer bundled with more than I needed. Puget Systems provided configurations very much like I wanted and their customization allowed me to achieve the configuration I was seeking.
Before placing an order, I appreciated the interaction with the sales staff who reviewed my proposed configurations and provided feedback. In most cases the changes recommended addressed my intended use and reduced the overall cost. They did not seek to sell me more than I needed just for Puget’s benefit. I also appreciated the courtesy installation of requested software and the absence of “bloatware” that was of no interest to me. Their website was easy to use and navigate and the description and review of each component by Puget staff was very helpful. Their library of articles on computer hardware was also very useful.
Having placed the order I was intrigued by the invitation to view the current status of my order. There was assurance in seeing the comprehensive build list and the quality control testing that went into the computer. Persons doing the assembling and testing attached their names to the list making for a very transparent process.
The computer was shipped and received as scheduled and arrived in good condition. The packaging was thoroughly effective. The system has been working without any problems. I did have the opportunity to contact Support to get some assistance with operating the WiFi adapter. That was an issue with Windows, not the hardware. I greatly appreciated the assistance provided by a real person who directly responded to my inquiries. Support was not left to a computer searching an inquiry for keywords and answering with a useless response. Subsequently, I received a call from Puget Systems, again by a real person, not a robo-call, to inquire about my satisfaction with the computer in general and also my experience with Support.
I have been completely satisfied by my experience with Puget Systems. I would intend to buy my next computer from them and would recommend them to anyone seeking a quality product as well as personal, professional, and committed customer service.

Puget computers are over the top from ordering to delivery. This is the second system onsite. System is quite and fast. Order was delayed during testing stage due to components not preforming up to the high stands of Puget Computers. These are not your box store computers the price of the system was the bridge I had to cross. This is a business tool that is needed to last some time. For now I believe in the Puget team to be apart of the tool belt. Superior product; Superior Customer Service; Superior Team

Well Puget System’s has done it again! With one ten minute to Puget tech. support, Josh Raye, he solved my problem. He listened to my plea of desperation as my PC quit running, as in powered itself off after 5 minutes. He calmly asked me to boot into the BIOS screen and checked the CPU temperature. Yep – 70C – too high for idle state – so he diagnosed a liquid cooling system pump failure. It appeared that he was exactly right! I ordered a replacement Corsair H60 cooling system to be delivered the morning of the next day and by noon I had installed the new cooling system. My PC was running again! I could now get back to my work. I spoke to Josh again asking him which way to install the cooler’s fan (intake or exhaust) and he took the time to look it up just to be sure. Now that’s Service with a capital S.

This is my fourth PC from Puget Systems. I’ve had it for three years and still get EXCELLENT support service. Try that with Dell or Sony or internet brand-X!

I strongly recommend getting your computer from Puget Systems. You work with a tech to custom design your machine to suit your specific needs, not over the internet compromises, but detailed choices – like what manufacturer’s RAM memory do you want? Which video card? Then they do a “burn-in” test before shipping, so you’re not the one who discovers a infant mortality component. They’re not the cheapest, but the best I’ve found.

Thanks Jon for doing a great job at building consistently excellent systems.

I don’t usually fill out these reviews, but I felt compelled to do so in this case. My experience ordering a new high end desktop from Puget Computers was quite good. These folks were professional and helpful from the first contact through product delivery and beyond. Where else would I have a representative suggest that the more expensive computer I was inquiring about was overkill for my applications? And who else would include a binder, with all of the relevant information about your computer, along with recovery disks, with the computer shipment? I had a follow-up call from them yesterday, 10 days after delivery of the computer, to ask if everything was working as anticipated. I appreciate the extra effort and personal touch provided by Puget in a time when most services are so impersonal and automated.

Just bought my first system from Puget. It is a laptop. I love it. It is top notch and the entire buying experience was a pleasure. William George answered my one million questions in a very polite and no pressure manner. I’m a hardcore trader and only buy top notch quality and Puget Systems has what I need. I also like that they are local. I will be buying all future computers from them.

I Own a small DJ business in upstate New York. I was using a Dell XPS 1640 with a soundblaster X-Fi sound card for my business. Knowing that I’d soon need a “backup”, I started extensively searching for a new computer, and I “stumbled” on Puget Systems. Having had much experience with Dell and HP, I was tired of the run around circus that THEY call tech support. The more research I did, the more I came back to Puget Systems. I finally called them and talked about building me a new computer. I had my web page open as I was talking to my sales tech while I was spec’ing my computer, he was explaining the options and available features in a very low pressure, imformative way. I ordered my computer, and the whole experience only got better from there. When the computer arrived about a week later, it was accompanied with a comprehensive log of every part manufacturer, contact number, test and build schedule with test results and a FULL complement of discs including drivers, reimaging AND full OS. That’s not to say that there weren’t any bugs (remember, we’re still dealing with Windows) but they were dealt with over the phone with no problems. It’s like having a cousin in the computer business who’s native language is English and knows their buisiness forward, backwards and sideways for the LIFETIME of the computer! All that’s left to say is that the quality of the computer improved the sound of my music from CD to virtual studio quality. I,ve also started doing graphic designs, and my computer is a natural! Bottom Line-thers’s nowhere else I’d even consider buying a computer than Puget Systems and you can take that to the bank!
