Customer Testimonials

I have just received my custom made B460i 14 inch Traverse Laptop.

In two words “Top Shelf”.

1. Watch John Bach’s Video, everything stated is true and more.

2. I suppose I had looked at some 10 or more Companies shelf ready Ultra Books, and these are fine unless what you want is specific, and I was.
I wanted not only a Haswell 4th Gen i7 with the integrated 5200 pro Iris GPU in a laptop… but I also wanted Samsung’s Pro series 512 SSD, not RAID, not etc… and none of the major pre-built had these, or made some other complication.

So I went looking for a customer builder, and there are several, I almost went with another builder (or so I thought) because I didn’t
know Puget existed at that moment… Here is what I found… Many other builders can build a custom desk top, and advertise they can build a custom Laptop, however when you can’t be switched
to a computer they can build, you suddenly are required to meet their standards of some kind, one sited the homeland security Act… at any rate I am very fortunate to have literally stumbled upon
Puget as Puget has exceeded every expectation I had and even some of their own. ( this has the quietest fan… I can hardly hear it.)

A. No outrageous something I had to provide, just what any normal over 2k purchase required. You think that should have been easy, so did I, give it a whirl .

B. No Bull Crap Period.

C. These are guys are Pro’s, as they finished the build, I was able to log in and see day by day, sometimes by the hour… what was being pulled, ordered, available, who was installing what, testing,
the test results, the burn results (I might have been able to assemble something that resemble’s this computer in my static environment, with out breaking something… But if something was failing,
or not running as it should I would have to have used the WTF method of elimination to find the problem child.) Puget put this computer through a major Burn in Run, sent me the results in images, and a
complete copy in rebut-able CD format with my own CD copy of the OS, drivers on and on, Over and beyond….

3. The computer arrived in perfect shape, and I even know who boxed it, as it arrived ahead of schedule before Christmas, a day before the early date by FEDEX.

Bottom Line: You do not have to know exactly what you want to have a custom machine built, these guys don’t presume, but will help if you want it, if you know what you want, you will appreciate these guys.

I recently had puget systems assemble a Home Theater PC for me. My decision to go with Puget was made easier once I learned more about the company the the steps they take to make sure that EVERY system they build is custom to the clients request/needs. I found this this out through searching for information about this company first before doing business with them and viewing videos on their system assembly process. I then proceeded to setup a custom HTPC build and immediately got a follow up email about the my specified build from one of their sales associate. I was actually pretty baffled that the sales associate told me to downsize some components as it was not needed for my specific use of the HTPC and that I could get great results with their recommended build and SAVE MONEY! This is not something that you usually see in Sales, and It proved even further to me that this was the company I was going to do current business with and even Future business with. They are very meticulous with their build process and I witnessed that on my build at the quality control portion of the build where a component(USB port) was not functioning and the Started the build over again. Thats awesome attention to detail!!! I am very pleased with how much this company has focused on providing great customer service. Thanks Puget, Keep up the great work.

The whole process of ordering a computer from Puget Systems has been an eye-opener. I received great individual attention and support at each phase of the process including configuring the order, reviewing progress of the build, shipment and follow-up. The people who supported me were consistently helpful and always willing to explain things and make recommendations to better meet my needs. The computer itself is beautifully and sturdily built and packaged. I would absolutely use Puget again in the future.

I am a little old lady with a camera! I purchased myPuget Computer in 2009. I have had 2 concerns in all that time. Early on it was a faulty usb port which they promptly replaced. Here we are four years later and the sound system went out. Christopher Crader was with me every step of the way and now all is good.
Hey it’s all about service.

I recently purchased an Echo system for my wife and I was very pleased with the level of service I experienced with Puget Systems. From my first inquiry (via their on-line chat service), to a follow-up call from them about my system configuration (I was doing my own OS installation), to the speed of assembly and thoroughness of testing, to the overall speed with which they provided me with a small but mighty PC. A PC that worked just fine right out of the box (something that not always happens with custom-built mail-order computers – I’ve purchased several over the years). My next (gaming) PC will be a SFF unit, and Puget Systems will be my first stop in my quest to fill that need.

This is my second purchase from Puget in 4 years. I’ve had my new PC for about a 1&1/2 weeks now and it’s been working great. Thanks to the feedback from both Jeff and Wilson that I received, I had a solid system built to meet my needs (and SO quiet). The staff here are knowledgeable, patient, and customer service focused. The entire experience with Puget is a real pleasure.

You will pay a little more for a system here. But if you can afford it, just do it. You will not regret it. You will get high quality components. You will get a great sales and support staff. You will get a US based company. You will see your system being built every step of the way.

I can only hope that Puget stays true to this great service indefinitely. If they do I can’t imagine any current customer going to any competitor after buying here. It is simply one of the best online buying experiences I have had from any company.

Thank you!

Very happy with my m760i. Excellent customer service, Awesome product. Will defiantly be a customer again.

OK, now I’m embarrassed. I have purchased 8 gaming desktop and laptop computers from Puget Systems over the past 8 years, and this is the first time I have sat down and submitted a testimonial. It was always “I’ll get to it tomorrow”. That is tragic because Puget is such a rare company in this day and age that their outstanding work and company policies should be widely heralded. Thanks to Jon Bach’s superb sales and tech support teams, all of my Puget machines have been a pleasure since “day one”, and every single one of those machines is still running strong.

If I can give just one reason why I am a satisfied repeat customer of Puget Systems, it is their service. Any computer company can assemble hardware and make it work (for awhile), but Puget does much more than that. They build a solid, well made machine, from some of the best components available anywhere, that meets my specific needs both technically and financially. The ability to choose my favorite operating system and have it installed without a lot of other bloatware and malware is a big plus. The large selection of free software that can be added to my system is another plus. I get only the system I ordered — nothing more — no infuriating malware surprises. But it doesn’t end there. Puget stands behind my machines from the moment they come off the testing line. In my opinion, that’s where most other computer companies really fall short.

The Puget team consists of many fine people that have done their best over the years to make me a satified customer. Just to name a few, William George in Sales has been more than helpful in assisting me with configuring many of my machines some of which had rigid space and cooling requirements. His insightful suggestions have not only made my purchases better, they have saved me money. Scott Denoff in Tech has gone way beyond the pale in analysing and fixing some complex problems that have kept my machines running in top shape, and which in turn has kept me a very satisfied customer. These people are just a few of the Puget team that does really fine work in delivering products that I have been happy with for many years.

Another big plus is Puget’s communications setup. You know what is going on all the time, whether it is a new system build or the repair of an older machine. This is another mark of a first class organization. Their communications are so effective that my being 3000 miles away on the East Coast is of no consequence.

I used a lot of superlatives in the above paragraphs, but they are all warranted. Puget Systems is a fine company. They make a fine product. They deliver great service. If their oustanding record continues, they will have me as a lifelong customer. There are very few companies in the world that I can say that about.

Its been several months since I received my desktop from Puget Systems. Since then I have upgraded some software and added some hardware to the original build. This machine is very stable and so well constructed that even a non-expert like myself can make changes with confidence. From the moment I started playing with the what I want- the what I need- and the what I can afford aspects of getting this machine Puget was extraordinarily helpful. Every phone call was answered promptly by a knowledgeable person that didn’t make me feel like a computer illiterate fool. Order process was painless. Delivery was right on time. Packaging was perfect. Computer was exactly as ordered including a pre-wiring request for a latter hardware addition. I guess you get the idea that I am a satisfied customer. I will buy my next computer from Puget Systems.

All I can say is WOW! What a pleasurable purchasing experience I had getting my latest PC from Puget Systems. I decided to skip building my own and searched out some of the boutique system builders online. Despite the builders that have higher visibility I found Puget Systems. I had a rough idea of the system I wanted and that was a quiet yet up to date system for photo and video editing. I can honestly say I was under pressure from some who said get an iMac and another who was trying to steer me towards a rig from Digital Storm. I read the reviews and did some research. I contacted Puget Systems through email and William was quick to answer. He suggested the Serenity system and after going over some build options that were within my budget and specifications his initial build actually cost less than I was going to spend. How about that? A company that didn’t try to up sell on components! William was quick to respond to any questions or requests I had and although I upgraded the CPU cooler William said it would be a little noisier he was honest and very knowledgeable in the individual components. I submitted my order and since I was given a budget and it was under that figure I decided to upgrade my video card. William went over the pro’s and con’s and added the card. Once payment cleared the fun began. Puget Systems really goes the extra mile in keeping you informed in each step of the process. You can track everything from the collecting the parts to assembly, benchmarks and you can even view pictures of your system before it’s shipped. Not only do you get to see your system as it will look out of the box you get to see thermal images of your system at idol and under load. How cool is that (no pun intended)! You will get your tracking number when the system ships and the wait and apprehension begins. I was worried about the particular carrier they use as I have had less then stellar experiences with them. The big day came and the big white box looks like heck. Now I’m worried. Box is crushed on 4 sides like an accordion. A big tear is on the bottom of the box. So I’m sweating as I open the box. Lo and behold the triple layered outer box does its job. Nestled inside 8 large styrofoam corner protectors is the original box for my systems case. On top there is a box of goodies. All the original unused parts, manuals and power cord. Beneath is a binder with some directions, disks, benchmarks, personalized message, invoice and support numbers for everything installed with the system. So following the directions I get the case out. It is in pristine condition. They even replaced the protective film on the case. Open up the side panel and here is another point where Puget Systems shines. They have a a form fitting foam packaging that protects the video card and monstrous CPU cooler from getting jostled around while shipping. One thing you may read on other boutique builders forums is the video card gets knocked loose. Puget Systems has a nice clear, branded bracket that helps to keep the video card in place. Not only while shipping but as you use it they are getting so large and heavy that the support will keep downward pressure off the slot. Another touch I noticed is that rather than just install one of the front mounted fans in its support on the front of the case Puget Systems brought it back towards the rear and mounted it at an angle to blow air directly into my CPU cooling tower. To help quiet the system there is a ton of noise dampening material stuffed into every nook and cranny! Checked the system for any wires or connectors that may have gotten knocked loose during shipping and all was good. Time to fire this thing up. It goes without a hitch. William had told me my CPU cooling option (Gelid GX-7) and video card choice was going to make my system a little louder than they like. Well William, you have bionic ears! This thing is whisper quiet! My external Raid Array cooling fans are noisier than this system. I wish I had a problem with my system early on to see if their tech support is as good as the rest of the process but the darn thing is running without a hitch! So I tip my hat to William, Josh, Kyle and the rest of the staff at Puget Systems. You all have made this whole process actually pleasant. I am impressed and will spread the word about your great company.
