"At Pudget Custom Customers, people do exactly what they say: they listen to their customers, not only to the credit cards of their customers.

And they care about Linux, it already means a lot !

"The advantages to dealing with Puget Custom Computers at every phase boil down to technical knowlege and quick courteous response. During the shopping phase my order was tweaked and revised by knowledgeable customer service rep Wilson via e-mail, with all of my questions addressed and helpful advice on how to save money by eliminating items I did not need. I had checked many other options prior to contacting Puget, and still was not able to get closer to knowing what I needed to make sense out of the limitless options out there.

During the order phase my questions were answered quickly. I especially enjoyed being able to view the build process on line, complete with test results. Direct involvement by the owner Jon Bach gives added confidence. Overall, there is an image of a well qualified, dedicated team placing importance on the deadline without compromising quality.

Once I received the computer, the tech response from Paul has been great. There is still some tweaking to be done to my new computer, basically due to the fact that I have been busy and have to wait to follow up on some recommendations. The tech support response has been quick and helpful, extending to recommendations on how to address issues not caused by the computer itself.

All in all a great experience--one I recommend highly to others!

"I purchased a high end custom built computer and have been highly impressed with the professional staff and attention to detail given to my order. Several years ago I bought a custom system from another company (now out of business); my experience was so bad (machine locked up within minutes after turning it on -- was returned several times -- parts were replaced -- impossible to talk to anyone willing to "work the problem") that I had to buy a Dell just to have a reliable home computer. Understandably, I was very reluctant to order from another online custom builder. Puget Custom Computers has renewed my faith in purchasing a computer online. Their staff reviewed by order and suggested changes that ensured hardware compatibility and saved me money. During the assembly process, they kept me informed as to progress. The www.pugetsystems.com web page allowed me to status the ordering of parts, assembly of parts, testing of the system (including benchmarks), and shipping. The machine arrived when I was away on a business trip. So, it was several days before I was able to pull it out of the box and turn it on. There were no problems whatsoever. The quality control sheets shipped with the machine detail who performed each assembly step/test and when it was performed; a very nice personal touch. I highly recommend Puget Custom Computers to anyone looking for a special computer assembled and tested by a team of professionals."

"Very carefully I searched and researched before buying (from Puget) my latest computer. I'm a home-office user, but this box on my desk is my second-best friend. My time spent finding a trustworthy, friendly, helpful company to put together my choices has paid off tremendously, in that I'm very happy. After three months, nary a problem--I don't have a single reason to call Puget Company for help, so cannot comment on that. A truly satisfying buying experience, they have people working there with real names--people who guided me through the maze of software, hardware, components, etc. How wonderful it was to have so many choices, not to have to buy a machine "as is".

"Puget Sound Systems, or Puget Custom Computers as they call themself now, was an awesome store where I bought my computer online. After I got my computer from them I told everyone where I got my computer, and I'm glad I get the opportunity to submit this complement to ResellerRatings.com!

Puget Custom Computers is a great place to order a computer of perfect specification.

"Home Computer User

I purchased another disk drive (Western Digital ATA100 80.0GB WD800JB) to backup my C drive. The reason for this was that I wanted to minimize my outage due to disk drive problems.

Since I was sending it back to Puget to replace my bad C drive (covered by warrantee), Puget formatted and partitioned both drives for me, upgraded my XP software from Service Pack 1 to SP2, reloaded my purchased software, and sent it back to me.

I had a very good experience and would order again from Puget.

"I ordered a laptop from Puget. While it took a few weeks to arrive, it was because they had found a defect in the original hardware while testing it, which saved me headaches in the long run.

The laptop was a great deal. It is screaming fast in every area and it was extremely affordable considering the impressive hardware inside. It came with an extremely useful and no-nonsense driver utility disk, and it was packaged very well. It has given me absolutely no problems whatsoever. Perfect for one who's used to building their own desktops and it turned off by the idea of the name brands.

"This is a super company!!! They made an awesome computer. All of the wiring inside is very well done. They went the extra mile to make a VERY good computer. The customer service is also very helpful and friendly. Unlike other BORING companies, Puget gives the buyer the ability to add in many things. Everything was great. I will continue to buy from Puget! A++++++++"

"Jon Bach and his staff at Puget Sound Systems worked with me to help fashion a system that would meet my specific needs, not assuming I would want what the previous customer or the "average" client would want. It's my business so getting a good value and having a computerthat reponded to me and my company was essential. Puget Systems was excellent."

"I bought a computer video editing system for a fair price. The pre-purchase support was excellant. I was able to make several adjustments as I got advice from the sales tech and their website allowed me to follow the configuration process as it occurred, part by part including testing of each component. I live in Massachusetts and wondered if a small Seattle based company would be able to respond to my needs. I asked if I could save money by supplying Windows XP through my son in Seattle. Not only was that OK, but a Puget Systems salesman went to my son's work to save him the ride. A few months later, I bought two 160 hard drives from another vendor on sale and Puget Systems spent a lot of time helping me install them. The system has been rock solid and performs up to my needs. I am happy with this purchase."

"The staff at Puget Systems was great! They helped me pick the right computer components for my needs and didn't try to push toward the more expensive parts. I've now purchased 2 computers from them (laptop and desktop) and will buy from them again in the future."
