"The quality and variety of the available parts is great and the staff was extremely helpful in choosing which components and getting the order built and shipped quickly. This is my second system for my office I have bought at AVA and been very happy with the build quality and support."

"Nowadays custom computer companies are a dime a dozen. Making a decision on what one to go with is difficult. There were two other companies that I spoke with before speaking with ava direct. One company I asked for a build between 1,000-1,500 the build was 1,499 and some change when I asked for a build closer to the 1,000 end I received no reply. Another company was dishonest trying to get me to spend more. Much to my surprise when I sent in my build to AVA direct they came back with a lower price! Customer service was friendly and intelligent. When pricing out all the parts for my build, from newegg.com, it was only $178 to have ava build it. The computer runs like a dream, wires tucked away neatly and all spare parts/documentation was given to me as well. The computer was very well protected during shipping. I'm getting my brother a pc for christmas and it will defiantly be from AVA. My review is only so delayed because I believe in actually USING my product before I review it."

"Excellent Customer Service, fast and responsive to all my questions. Great Tech support also. Was able to change my order (to more components) after order was placed with no issues. Computer arrived well packed and was put together like a brick S%$# house... SOLID! Will be needing a new laptop soon and will be buying from AVADirect"

"Heard about this company online after some trouble with another custom build website. (cyberpower)

Pros:
Very nice layout and able to navigate components easily.
Was able to build a custom rig in matter of minutes.
Prices were comparable even to some that I found on sale which was great.
Sales team and customer service answered questions well and knew product (very important to me)
Worked through any issue during build and packaging was top notch.
Cable management and PC were well put together and it started right up.

Cons:
Wish they had more of an update email system to help you track where your order was in the processing/build. Had to contact for update.

Final thoughts:
For a gaming enthusiast or first time PC junky this site is very reliable. All techs and people who helped me were American and easy to work with. Top notch customer service. I would recommend these guys to build a PC over more known competitors like Cyberpowerpc and Ibuypower. They were cheaper than the competitors too that like to charge extra for cable management and packaging. They will have my business and my recommendations for sure.

"I've experienced amazing customer service starting even before committing money to action! Also, I feel the cost is well worth the splendor. I'd highly recommend their services, although it took almost 2 months for my order to complete, from time of payment to arrival on my doorstep. "

"I am a small business owner and had a problem with our main server. I called AVA and was immediately greeted with friendly and helpful service. Joseph and Alex in particular were very quick to accurately identify and solve my problem. They returned every email and phone call right away. My new server is awesome and the price was great. They recognized my need to get quick service and gave me a very fast turn around. I highly recommend this company and I am very grateful for how I was treated as a customer. I wish all businesses were this diligent and customer attentive. AVA is the best!!!"

"I ordered a Clevo P377SM-A from AVADirect and am extremely happy with their ordering process, build time and shipping. They provide quality hardware at reasonable prices. I had made the mistake by ordering a similar laptop from one of their competitors, waited nearly a month with no communication and I finally called the competitor inquiring on my order. They said it was on the shelf awaiting parts. With AVADirect, Communication from order to delivery was timely considering it was a custom build. I highly recommend AVADirect and will order and promote them to all my friends. It's been a great experience. Thank You AVADirect. Keep up the Excellent Work!"

"I bought a custom notebook about a year and a half ago. It is a nice computer without bloatware and configured how I wanted it. When it was about 9 months old, it experinced what I can only describe as total internal failure. It would not even power up. I RMA'd it, and AVADirect determined that the motherboard had failed, so they sent it back to the manufacturer.

A few weeks and a board replacement later, AVA had it back to reassemble. They tested it, and the ram had failed, so they got new ram, then the processor showed errors, so they replaced it. Overall this process was 3 nail-biting months. Yes, it took too long in my opinion, but tech support was transparent and helpful through it all, and it was covered under warranty. AVA could have just thrown it back together and sent me a box of problems, but they took the time to make sure things were right. Upon my request, they extended my warranty by about the time the machine was out of service. Fingers crossed that the new innards don't do the same thing.

"I just received my new system yesterday and am very impressed with the care with which it was assembled and shipped.

From the selection process, through to putting together the order, everything was a breeze thanks to the excellent, professional, and courteous per-sales assistance from Joseph.

I would not hesitate to recommend AVADirect to a friend looking for a top-notch system.

"I initially ordered a custom made PC from CyberPower PC and had a MISERABLE experience. The specs were similar, and it was about $150 cheaper, but it was the lowest quality build I've ever seen. The wires were just smashed into the case, usb ports weren't working, fans weren't hooked up properly, and I even got the PC heavily damaged from their shipping method. Also, their customer service was slow and completely didn't care.

Now, that stupid thing was finally sent back, and I took a chance with AVADirect and honestly couldn't be happier. The build quality is unbelievably great. On top of that, when I initially ordered it, someone was there to talk to who was super knowledgeable about PCs and walked me through each aspect of the build and helped me decide on a few of the options that I didn't know about. They have SO many more choices, and the the pc was shipped to me with so much packaging that it definitely didn't move an inch during the shipping process. I cannot stress enough, do yourself a favor and have a quality build made by these guys, and whatever you do STAY AWAY FROM CYBERPOWER PC. An AVADirect Custom Computer is well worth the little bit of extra cost. Their customer service, and computers, are wonderful, and I will be referring all of my friends to them from now on.

Also, they didn't ask me to write this review, I wrote it on my own accord to make sure that people don't get fooled by other companies like I initially did. AVADirect is def the way to go.

"Very satisfied with the custom SFF computer, a Shuttle, that I purchased from AVADirect. I received the computer in a timely manner, it was built as I had specified in the well-functioning order process and worked perfectly out of the box. The HDD's were configured in a RAID 1 configuration as I had requested in the online order form. This is the second Shuttle I have purchased from AVADirect, pleased with both."
