Why it can be tricky to buy the right kind of laptop for your business.
Occasionally we’ll get a phone call from a random citizen looking for a size 24 widget cable or to buy a laptop. As much as we hate to turn away any business, we are not a retail shop. We just don’t have the space or the budget to carry an extensive inventory.
What we will do, however, is provide hardware quotes and purchasing services for our contracted clients and potential clients. We do this, not only to be helpful, but so that we can make sure that any equipment we install meets business and security standards.
First of all, any computers we quote will be specific to the way your staff works. As Tavis pointed out, “The user might be a general office worker or a heavy-duty CAD worker… we will specify the right equipment and software.”
Secondly, businesses have different technology needs than the average home user. That’s why most standard computer products simply won’t work right in a business environment.
The warranty is also better on business-grade equipment. Many consumer-level items are only covered for 30 days to 1 year. Any workstations we quote come with at least a 3-year warranty.
If you’re looking to purchase new workstations, let us in on the conversation at the beginning. That’s the best way to save money on your computers in the long run.
