Who We Are.
Leading Provider of Custom Computing Hardware
WHO WE ARE
Our Founding
The Equus story began in 1989, when Andy Juang, a Taiwanese immigrant, opened the first Pony Computer franchise in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Originally the focus was on selling desktop computers to consumers, the company soon pivoted and began catering to Value Added Resellers (VARs) that needed configurable systems to meet unique business requirements.
Changing its name to Equus Computer Systems, the company provided services VARs needed at a fraction of the cost of maintaining their laboratory equipment and personnel. As servers and data centers started to become mainstream, Equus identified an emerging need for configurable servers that could be purchased online. This led to the founding of ServersDirect, and a business model that makes it easy to custom-build white box servers online, with the support of expert technicians at unbeatable prices.
