What an amazing little business! Owner helped me out with my power to board issue and is so friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend this place to any one with a custom or regular pc. He really treats you so well.

Locally operated computer store where service is their way of doing business. This is exactly what you wont get from the big box retailers, except for pricing. I wont shop anywhere else for my computer needs.

I have been in here 3 times and I have found them to be knowledgeable, extremely helpful and very courteous. When I have a computer issue I am there and knowing once I walked in the door it is going to be okay. Highly recommend.

I heard these people are very knowledgeable about computers, but I did not have mine serviced by them. It was just a bad customer service experience. Its not actually helpful to have a group of people say random things to you like turn your computer on and do xyz instead of listening to the customer. If the British lady (?) could listen to people she would have understand my computer doesnt turn on, so her advice was moot. Very frustrating experience. I called in advance about my laptop and was told to bring it in, then all the staff acted like I was crazy for bringing it in. Within one minute of coming in the door they told me they cant do anything for it. If you only service laptops with easily removable batteries, maybe advertise that? Or tell people on the phone when they call about laptop repair? I can mail something back to the manufacturer or take something back to the store myself. The lady there came off so condescending. She actually said to me see that green part? Thats the motherboard. Thats like the brains of the computer. Im not 6 years old you and dont have to talk to me like Im an idiot and give me a lesson on motherboards. Luckily, theres another shop across the street.Edit to add: I cant reply in this thread but the response below from the store asked me to update. Its a few hours later and my computer is working fully. Im typing this on it right now! I brought it to a different shop, on Gulfgate just across 41. My laptop was definitely very banged up, I know, and to be fixed I needed someone willing to open it up and fix the connections. Im fortunate it was fixable and only $150.I think it was just a case of the wrong repair job for a particular shop, and needing to find the right place, where they maybe do this particular thing more often. I guess not everywhere opens up the kind of laptop I have that is sealed all around the battery, etc.

Besides possessing ultimate knowledge of computers, these people are friendly and understanding. They lean over to do a good job without hitting you with a huge bill. They try to solve your problem without having to charge you immediately like the other computer shops. 5 stars for honesty and integrity.

I’ve been building gaming PCs as a hobby for just a few years now. I had been needing a new monitor for my personal set up, so before I give more money to some giant retail monstrosity, I thought I’d check them out. I can tell you, definitively, that this is the best place in town for all your computer needs. Extremely helpful and knowledgeable staff, and prices that will compete even with some of the big online retailers. I will be happily supporting this business for the foreseeable future. And they have a super cute dog!

I just stopped in for the first time after calling multiple other stores in the area with no helpful advice. The staff here was friendly, knowledgeable and quick to offer solutions to my problems. They even talked me put of an unnecessary purchase explaining that it was very unlikely to be the problem until I had looked into other options first, something I see very rarely these days. I HIGHLY recommend shopping at Discount Computers for any of your tech needs, repairs or advice. 5 out of 5, I will be returning for all future computer purchases!

About 1 years ago I was on vacation in Sarasota, (Im French). I had come with my family to inquire about buying computer components, I was super delighted with how I was received, the store manager is super nice, he does a real job, he is passionate about it. its great. I hope you remember me if you read this msg (I bought a motherboard with a cooler and a ssd). this store is superb. big respect from a French

I just purchased a new laptop from Amelia, Doug and Jack - I absolutely LOVED the customer service from the moment I set foot in their store. I am so happy with my laptop, and their training has been exceptional. Also, when Ive had minor issues, I call them and they can remotely fix or help me to save me a trip to the store. I will continue to need them for years to come Im sure, and I have peace of mind knowing theyve been in business for 30 years and are only 10 minutes away from my home in Sarasota, FL. I would HIGHLY recommend their store for quality service and an exceptional product. Thank you, Amelia, Doug and Jack!

Discount Computers is my go to computer store and support. Over the past 10 years, Discount Computers has custom constructed several computers for my wife and myself to our great satisfaction.These machines have been extremely reliable and trouble free, noticeably more so than computers we had purchased previously off the Internet and in big box stores. Very important for us because we use our computers for hours every day. The free instructions and post sale support have been extraordinary as well.It is no surprise Doug and Amelia have been in business for over 25 years. They long ago earned our trust.

I went in to get a tower and a power supply, the owner and all the employees were incredible. I bought a tower that turned out to be too small and they let me exchange it for a larger one with no extra charge. They even threw in 4 SATA cables for free. I will be returning to this store often and will be recommending it to anyone who asks.

Liz W.Discount Computers in Sarasota is the best place I have ever bought a computer and gotten help with it afterwards. I just bought my second computer there and am very happy with it. I have also gotten great help with a sit-down tutorial at the store and will be back for more. I bought my first computer from Doug and Amelia when I had an emergency; they helped me at the last minute to get a brand new computer which I had for over five years until I decided to upgrade. Whenever I have had a question, they are there on the other end of the phone to help. I am very grateful to everyone there for being such a wonderful business. Thank you!!

Very personalized service and they know what they are doing!!! Had them build a custom computer for me. Im so happy with it and the advice that was given.

Discount Computers is hands down the best computer store in Southwest Florida. Doug and his team were able to locate our computers problem and solve the issue for the best price possible. Its hard to believe in this day and age that someone would take the time to fix your machine while you wait. We were troubleshooting at Discount Computers for 5 hours at no extra cost. We will always go to Discount Computers for their reliable, friendly, superior service. Thanks Doug and Amelia!

With lifetime lessons, personal attention to any concerns, personable employees, there is nothing to complain about with this business. This company competes with the big chain stores and has stayed in business for 26 years with economy that has gone up and down. This alone is proof of a business that offers outstanding service. They will do work on computers that they did not sell, however, their purchasing customers always get priority.

Review №26

Over the years I have purchased two computers from Discount Computers, Inc. each at a very reasonable price. They have spent hours (at no additional cost to me) helping me work through all the technical aspects of my computer. When I am at my summer home over 1500 miles away I can call and they will walk me through any problems I might be having--solving them every time. This company and its employees are my lifeline. They are always courteous, helpful, and most important, patient. Because it is a small, family run business they know all their customers by name--something you will never find in a big box store. We are lucky to have such a fantastic company in our town. Thank you Doug, Amelia, and your outstanding staff for all you have done for me. I appreciate every one of you.

Discount Computers built an amazing custom laptop for me that has lasted for many years. It is by far the best computer I have ever owned. They helped me get it set up and trained me on how to best maintain the virus software. They have also been able to save data on our office computers that have crashed on occasion. The staff is very friendly, and I gladly give them my recommendation.

This is the only store where I buy my computers. Over the last 15 years I have purchased all my computers from Discount computers. Excellent service during and after the purchase. They are always available to answer any questions I may have. If a rare repair is needed they get right on it, and there rates are very competitive.

Recently my PC stopped working and since it was 8 years old and running slowly, I decided to purchased a new computer from Discount Computers in Sarasota. I was very pleased with the service they provided me. Doug sat with me to design a computer with my needs in mind.After the computer was build, Discount copied all my files from my old hard drive to the new computer. They assisted me in installing all the programs I use. Finally, Jack spent 2 hours with me explaining the new Windows10 OS. I was very happy with all the services Discount Computers provided me. Thank You !

I have bought 3 computers from Discount Computers since 1999. They spend quite of bit of time each and every time to get me the correct computer to fit my own personal needs. Their service to me has ALWAYS been excellent and outstanding! The free unlimited one on one classes are a great perk, I have used them for all my problems and questions. They are always available for any questions I have, and are always patient, helpful and informative. I have recommended Discount Computers to many of my friends who had terrible luck with the geek computer guys. I have been thanked over and over for my recommendation. If you are looking for a great computer at a reasonable price, and need ANY type of computer training, from beginner to advanced, I highly recommend Doug and his staff at Discount Computers!

Ive been doing business with them since the day they first opened their doors. They have always been fair and honest, and their service and support has consistently been first class. My most recent experience was last week; on the phone I commented to Doug that I have an old, slow laptop that Im about to toss -- he suggested some inexpensive new hardware -- he put it in and wow! Huge improvement, and Im indeed using it now. For after-sale support, theres none better!

Retail and service is a tough business, no matter the size of company or product. That is why finding Discount Computers, years ago, was such a joy. New computers and products, upgrades, service - all handled with a friendly and professional approach that builds trust in what they do and sell. I would never go anywhere else in the Sarasota area for computer needs. Thank you Doug and Amelia.

I have been a very satisfied customer of Discount Computers for over 11 years. I have bought seven computers from them during that time for myself and family. Their service is exemplary. It is wonderful to have a place like this in town I can call or come in to when I have any computer questions or issues.For someone like me who is not so computer savvy they are a godsend. No phone calls to India or being put on hold for 20 minutes just to have a question answered. I highly recommend anyone looking for a PC to check them out. Being a customer of theirs has so many rewards and I know it first hand. THANKS, Discount Computers!

What more could anyone ask?Hopefully they will be around for a long, long time, because I would be lost if they werent.

Amelia and Doug Manning, and their team at Discount Computers, provide outstanding service. When my Windows XP system was expiring, I headed for only one place --Discount Computers. They listened to my wants and needs for my new desktop system, transferred over all the programs and files that I specified, set up email and other programs,, and walked me through the entire setup with a one on one training session.Once you have a system built by Discount Computers, you gain lifetime support -- I can call with a question or have additional one to one sessions as needed. The only cost is if they determine that something needs to be fixed on the bench.And I havent had any trouble in the 2+ years Ive had the system.Thank you, Amelia, Doug, Jim, and the rest of the crew at Discount Computers.

Over the years I have purchased several computers from Discount Computers, desktops and laptops, and I keep going back because they take care of their customers. They dont sell you more computer than you need and they service what they sell. When you screw things up on the computer, or something unexpected happens, or it needs to be cleaned out, they take care of it. It is a small local business and I have come to know Doug and Amelia, the owners, and Jim, and appreciate their honesty, integrity and expertise. So if you want a quality computer built to your specifications, based on what you plan to use it for, I can definitely recommend this one. You wont be sorry.

Discount computers have just celebrated their 25th year in business and I have been a loyal customer for most of them. I proudly built my own laptop at one of their classes and have depended on them for countless upgrades and new built computers. I have confidently recommended them to friends and neighbors.

Moved to FL in 1997 at that time I needed to find a reliable computer store that not only sold various units but maintained them as well. And as an additional bonus they give free lessons for everything they sell be it computer or software. Found Discount Computers in early 98 and have been a customer ever since I wouldnt consider going any where else. Even though it means I drive from Englewood to Sarasota, FL some 55 miles round trip.

The wonderful people at Discount Computers have kept me happy for about fourteen years. Their products are not only inexpensive, but totally reliable, and if I have any problems with using one of their computers, I can just telephone Discount Computers, and, with great patience, they walk me through whatever procedure I am stuck on. With the computers and screens I buy from them go free lessons. Whenever I like, I bring my computer in, and have an hour with one of their excellent technician/teachers. All the equipment they sell is fully guaranteed. As a professional Book Editor, I depend upon Discount Computers for my livelihood, and they have never let me down. If there were ten stars, Discount Computers would deserve all of them!

I had my first computer built by Discount Computers in 2000. What confidence knowing that if you should have a problem later on you can take it to the people who actually put it together for you. Since then I have had several units built and received expert instruction when there was a new program I wanted to learn. The entire staff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I always recommend Discount Computers.

The only computer store that offers (Truly) one-on-one training and support for their customers. This is not the one-teacher per device with a fifteen person class size, They offer an hour of dedicated face time where your questions get answered. I often have questions about the compatibility of certain pieces of hardware and need technical information on available work-arounds for making it work... and I need all of this without having to navigate through ignorant sales people serving as warm bodies... I need a group of people that study and understand the equipment they sell... that is discount computers... I have come to rely on them for answers to question that google cannot even answer.

Been buying my custom built computers here for 20 years. Doug & Amelia are truly special people. Doug is extremely knowledgeable, patient and fair. The folks there like computers, tech and gaming as much as the customers do. They welcome fellow PC people stopping by and talking shop. If you want a new custom built PC or need repairs please give Doug a chance to EARN your business and trust. Very laid back no pressure place. Stop by and check out their new Occulus Rift VR demo setup for something that will really bake your noodle. I always enjoy stopping by just to hang out and talk shop. Its a bit like Floyds barber shop for computer and gaming peeps. Two thumbs way up.

As novice computer users, my husband and I went to the Discount Computer store over 15 years ago. They built a computer to our specifications, taught us how to use it and have been our computer crutch ever since.

When they say lifetime service, they mean it!We dont have to talk with someone from the Far East! We are not on hold for a half hour and all employees are extremely polite and patient.We have referred other people to this store and staff. Without exception, everyone is very happy.

Sometimes with my machine in their shop, with a list of stuff that requires looking at they tell me all is GObut they have missed fiddling with an item that I locate on the pick up.

Ive been going to Discount Computer for most of my life. Literally. Theyve always built me great gaming computers that ran flawlessly, including a gaming laptop that ran perfectly smooth and never once overheated, even with all day use.On top of building great rigs, theyve always been able to fix any problem me or my family has come in with and go the extra mile to get things working again. I once brought in a mangled tower that suffered quite badly during shipping (it was badly dented and filled with packing peanuts among other things) and they got it running again.I recommend Discount Computer to anyone looking for repairs, pc assistance or a new rig.

Review №80

I have had three computers custom built by Discount Computers over the years. Each computer was handed down through my kids as I upgraded. I would tell Doug my computer needs and he made recommendations that surpassed my needs and stayed within my budgets. While I had some hardware knowledge from my job, there was still a lot I didnt know and they were never condescending about the areas of knowledge I lacked. As a prior programming student of my dad, Doug has always kept up his knowledge of what was current and what was changing. He hires staff that know what they are doing. I have never had a problem with repair service and sent other people to him for service and no one has ever had a complaint. I have since moved out of state and made the mistake once of custom ordering a laptop online from Dell. Had I known how screwed up that would get, I would have had Doug do one and ship it to me. My next custom need will definitely go back to him!

We have been buying our computers and using Discount Computers services for over ten years. This is a very different and very much better computer-buying and maintaining experience than anything out there. Remember that one usually buys a computer on-line or at a store and have to go home to set it up yourself. Buy your next computer at Discount Computer there and you will get a lesson during which you and they will set it up and get you started just the way you want it. Problems you run into are solved by another (free) tutorial, and sometimes over the phone (free again). Only actual repairs (say, your virus protection product fails, or you drop it on its head) are charged. Since they built it, they know exactly what to do to set it right. I cant say enough good things about these good people.

On March 4, 2014, Discount Computers 25th Anniv, I bought my first computer from Amelia & Doug Manning, who own Discount Computers, Inc, 6524 -B S. Trail, just south of Stickney Pt. I knew I was getting a good quality computer from good people who could back their product up, as Ive had Jim fix my previous computer there, many times, with integrity, honesty, & a fair price.Since then, your free classes have helped me tremendously!When Jim fixed my computer, Doug always answered my questions in full detail. I never left with a question mark over my head. He & Jim have always made sure I understood every little technicality.You guys put so much genuine enthusiasm for not only your service, product, & teaching ability,You put your heart into it, and I thank you for that. God bless you.Cristine Loeschen,
