New hardware recommendations

[GeekyPete]

Hello,

 

Can anyone share your resent vendor experiences/recommendations.

 

We are looking at replacing up to 100 devices depending on cost. This will probably be around 70 desktop and 30 Laptops.

 

With one part time Technical staff we need:

• Established, reliable vendor
  
• good hardware support (Teesside area if that matters)
  
• 3 or 5yr warranty options.
  
• Competitive Pricing
  
• Possibly Lease Options
  
• I expect to be ordering/ deploying end of April at the earliest, August at the latest.
  

I know that vendors also read these pages. Vendors, PM me if you would like to quote and I'll let you know what I'm looking for.

 

Cheers Everyone.

I'll PM you who I tend to use.

 

She'll more often that not be relatively open at what cost to her and what cost to you. Especially with a large order like that I'd imagine you'd get a decent deal.

We use Stone. I am sure @Stone_Charli can help out.

 

competitive pricing & 5 year NBD on-site warranty. No complaints so far.

Hi @GeekyPete, this sounds right up our street, I have sent you a PM

We mostly use Misco or Softcat, would recommend either.

Softcat, Storm or XMA for general computers and laptops VeryPC for Windows tablets, Specialist builder (Overclockers/SCAN) for custom builds

Hi @GeekyPete

 

I hope you are having a good start to the day. We work with schools all over the UK and have some in the Teesside area.

 

Will send you a PM.

 

 

Have a good day.

Have a look at @luke_millgate

I've used @VeryPC_Anthony_L (VeryPC in general!) for a couple of batches of netbooks recently, and get our Lenovo gear through @Millgate

 

Both very helpful, quick delivery, and very patient
