Selecting the right end-point devices and infrastructure is not easy. With IT needing to  serve  a range of purposes for your diverse field of users, it can be difficult, time-consuming and costly when making procurement decisions.

Procuring the right equipment for your people and business can be difficult and time-consuming. We take the stress and hassle out of the equation. We provide expert consultation to ensure any new equipment is compatible with your needs and existing infrastructure before leveraging our extensive industry contacts and reliable network to procure and deliver the ideal technology for your business, when and where you need it, at the best possible price.

• Managing workplace technology across its entire lifecycle can be a significant drain on your IT team. We can take care of any aspect of the process on your behalf – whether it’s procuring the most suitable technology, configuring, and installing it on your premises, keeping it regularly updated and refreshed, or implementing and monitoring your overall security.

• Our fleet management solution manages your device’s complete lifecycle and includes customised monthly reporting on products and prices of equipment you may need, flexible custom storage and delivery options, the configuration of devices, installation and deployment of devices, and the disposal or salvage of your equipment at their end of life.

• Our DaaS solutions include offering Laptops, PCs, IP Phones and other computing devices as a paid service. All that’s needed for end users is an internet connection! DaaS takes desktop PCs, laptops, and other devices and preconfigure and customize them with security and productivity applications. We also include value-added services to ready the devices for business. Unlike the past, where devices were outright purchased by companies, the devices are paid for on a consumption model. While it may seem like a lease, DaaS is more concerned with the services associated with devices rather than the devices themselves.
• Aera typically provides devices under this model that have already pre-loaded the software your organization needs to use installed. A will also include a visible upgrade path for updates and patches.
• All in all, the DaaS trend is on the rise and was quick to grow. In fact, in 2014, only one percent of PCs were being shipped as a part of a DaaS. Based on market research, DaaS is set to grow to twelve to fifteen percent of all desktop and laptop offerings by the end of this year. While the percent might not seem that high, it encompasses all PC offerings and not just in enterprise. As a new market, the structures and prices of DaaS clearly are continually evolving.
