We used a company in Apple Valley called Even Flo.  They install extruded gutters - no more seams.  We also had screens put on the top of the gutters to keep the pine needles out.  They come to your house and extrude the gutters right there.  Very pleased with the work and the company.

 Extrude? So are they like 3D printed? Sounds cool. We have regular gutters and that last flash rain fall was too much for them. They didn't come loose, but we had a few waterfalls lol.

I guess they are like 3D printing.  We got them a couple of years ago and we have not had any leaks during the heavy rain.

Not extruded or printed.

They start with a roll of flat aluminum which is already painted, and run it through a die that bends the flat sheet into the proper U(ish) shape.

Seamless gutters are the only way to go.
