local purchasing advantages
Some of the advantages of purchasing a computer server or workstation from a local
vendor, rather than a mail order supplier, include:
On-site troubleshooting rather than having to do troubleshooting over the phone
before someone is dispatched. Dispatch of service personal locally rather than from
Tampa.
Availability of spares locally. With a variety of parts in stock for new systems,
many times we are able to replace defective parts the same day, rather than having
them shipped cross-country.
Support of servers as an entity, rather than as separate hardware, software, and
network.
In general, local computer vendors have been rated the same or higher than mail
order firms in the area of customer satisfaction for hardware sales and for service.
Saving on shipping - Florida law requires Sales Tax payment for either.
Most local vendors, along with MicroMetric, Inc., include system setup by a technician
as part of the sales price.
