Viglen vs Fujitsu PCs

[trivers1982]

Hi All

 

We have used Viglen PCs for a few years now as we have always found their systems to be fantastic quality as well as the service being top notch (they are just down the road). However a high PC turnover this year for Windows 7 has meant we required a second and third equivalent quote.

 

One company came back the same price as the Viglens so they were discounted! However the other company came back at £20 a PC less than the Viglens. These were for some exactly equivalent spec Fujitsu PCs. For 115 PCs this is quite a difference over all.

 

The question I have is has any one used Fujitsu PCs and how do you find them? Have you compared them to Viglens at all?

 

I like Viglens for the service especially, as well as the fact they have nearly always been very well built PCs. My SLT and governors will question the difference and I need to make sure I am correct when I tell them Fujitsu are not worth it (or are worth it!).

 

Thanks, have a good weekend!

I replaced all our teacher pcs with Fujitsu we got i5s with 4gb ram at the same price as i3s so better on price service sucks reliability is a bit iffy as our dell machines lasted 10 years some still in use today with 2 failures over the 10 years oh and 5 psus but that's not bad

 

Had one hard drive that took over a week to be replaced they said they didn't have any (not best pleased)

 

Another went today motherboard dead service is 2 business days with the 3 year warranty we got

 

Another pc the power button light has failed but not worth reporting.

 

If service is better with viglen then go with them

 

Hope this helps

LOL! I didn't have that in mind at the time, but i do now!

 

We've been using VeryPC for 3+ years now and they haven't missed a beat

If Fujitsu are the same as they were as Fujitsu-Siemens, I'd stay well away... The warranty service we had was terrible. Off-site repairs took weeks. Even a server repair took them days to turn up to. We switched from them to HP and Viglen.

 

So, remember, you get what you pay for! For £20 a PC I'd go for someone I knew and liked.

I am convinced by the Viglens, but my SLT will question the difference. Might give the Fujitsu ones a go at a lot smaller scale (5/6 office PCs).
