    Testimonials

    “Absolutely unbelievable. Phenomenal. What else can I say? Our 2-day order ships in one day, and the 5-day ships in 2! The boards look excellent. In almost 30 years in this business, I've never seen anything like your service. You just obsoleted the phrase "expedited delivery" - this is more like "instant delivery". Everyone in the PCB business had better look at what AdvancedPCB is doing, or they won't be in business! However, it may not be such a good idea to spoil new customers like this, as we may come to expect the impossible. This is the kind of dramatic change that FedEx did with small package shipping. From the easy-to-use quoting and ordering process, to elimination of the tooling charge, to no sacrifice of quality, and your lightning-fast delivery, I'm actually looking forward to having to fab our next PCB design. Never thought I'd be saying that before I retire! Thanks very much, and wishing you and AdvancedPCB much success…”

    “You guys always crush it for us! Very responsive and excellent quality!”

    “I have been using AdvancedPCB for years. I mainly used it in my previous job with Boeing on Maui. One of my coworkers there turned me on to your services. One of the big advantages to us was the free checks before we sent the boards for fab. This is still true as a major benefit. My two boards I just sent for fab had global issues with the soldermask and silk screen. I wouldn't have found the issues without your DFM tool.”

    “It is always a pleasure to do business with you and the others at AdvancedPCB. We thank you for your responsive, speed, and high quality services, on our quick turn projects. And we look forward to continuing our successful work together on future projects.”

    “Great place to get your boards fabricated. Great process when you use their software. Their layout software streamlined the process from schematic to production. Great tool!”
    Jim M.
    “Customer service is fantastic. I had submitted my order with an error and AdvancedPCB fixed everything for me and honored the same price. Thank you!”
    Andrew B.
    “I have ordered many times and the circuit boards are always made EXACTLY to my specifications. They offer a free design review service, which often catches mistakes and is very helpful. I frequently use the prototype specials when I have simple projects, but they have been very helpful with custom requests, and their tech support is very responsive. BUY YOUR CIRCUIT BOARDS HERE.”
