Before I came to Puget Systems I worked for a number of small companies and one large one: Microsoft.
Event Schedule For 2017
In 2017, our goal is to get out there where our customers are to learn more about them, learn more about their workflow, and find out what more we can do to optimize our systems and experience to those exact needs. That is why we are working with many user groups this year and have a big tradeshow calendar lined up. Are there any events that we should attend that aren’t on this list? Let us know!
Puget Systems 4th Quarter Newsletter
Welcome to Puget Systems first quarterly newsletter! We want to share with you the new and exciting things that are happening with us.
Visiting Supercomputing 2016
I made the trek to Salt Lake City to attend the Supercomputing conference. I’ve attended conferences both large and small going back 20 years, but nothing could prepare me for what I saw at Supercomputing. If you’re not familiar with Supercomputing, it’s an annual conference where scientists, researchers, and engineers gather to discuss high-performance computing, network storage and related technologies.
Person to Person
Yesterday, I awoke to the sound of my phone buzzing on the nightstand.
I answered it assuming it was another automatic message from one of the schools my kids attend. But this time I was jolted awake when the person on the line said, “Your bank account has been hacked.”
I grabbed my phone, punched the app to my bank and there it was: my account had been drained.
Good, Better, Best
A few weeks ago, I managed to get three kids in the van. On this morning, I wouldn’t have to speed to get them to school on time, but I was cutting it close.
I slammed my door shut, hit the button to open the garage door and turned the key in the ignition.
Nothing.
Now Offering Glyph External Drives!
As a part of our goal to provide not only quality workstations, but a complete workflow solution, Puget Systems has recently partnered with Glyph Tehchnologies to offer their robust and reliable external drives to our customers.
Taking the Time
I’ve never felt comfortable working on anything but the most simple plumbing jobs around my home. So when I noticed a leak in my sprinkler system, I decided to call a professional.
I started by checking reviews on Yelp. That took me to a few Facebook pages which lead me to a handful of websites. I made a list of six companies that had positive reviews from work they performed in my area. Of those six, I was able to get quotes from three companies, and my experience with each couldn’t have been more diverse.
Buy It For Life
A few weeks ago, I called a customer who had recently purchased a computer from us. She explained to me she’d configured this new system to run Adobe Creative Cloud to support her business. I had her profile on my screen and noticed she’d purchased a computer from us back in 2008. I said, “Did the last computer we built for you finally stop working?”
Loyalty
About six months ago, a new grocery store opened a few blocks from my home. On my first visit, I was handed a loyalty card and told to attach it to my key-chain, which I did without much thought. The checker explained that rewards would automatically appear on my card depending on how much I spent at the store. She also mentioned that using my loyalty card would give me a discount at their gas station.
