Single Point of Contact – WW Coordination & Deployment – In Region Local Language Support
The COMPUTERLINKS Group provides our partners the ability to operate on a global scale. COMPUTERLINKS is the only truly integrated global value added distributor with linked systems that allow us to offer seamless ordering, deployment, and support services. COMPUTERLINKS provides a single point of contact within your region from which all pricing and ordering takes place. We can advise on tax, tariff, and duty issues and can usually work to reduce liabilities in these areas. We then work internally between our local offices to make sure that the product is delivered, deployed, and supported in region.
A Few Examples of Recent Global Deployments
- COMPUTERLINKS North America quoted and subsequently coordinated individual purchase orders from 11 separate offices in Europe, Asia, and North and South America on behalf of a global systems integrator for a WW managed service project. The partner wanted us to coordinate with each of their offices separately so that each country could be invoiced separately (we can just as easily work from a single purchase order). A total of 33 Crossbeam UTM appliances on 32 separate orders, going to 12 destinations in 11 countries were seamlessly deployed by COMPUTERLINKS North America using our global network of offices.
- London deployment for international brokerage company via a New York based VAR to deploy 6 Crossbeam UTM appliances to the end user's London office. All quotes and subsequent purchase orders were handled through COMPUTERLINKS North America, who coordinated deployment in the UK without the end user or VAR having to deal with exchange rates, shipping, duties, or taxes. All products are being supported by COMPUTERLINKS UK.
- Global deployment for an international chemical manufacturer via a global systems integrator. COMPUTERLINKS Switzerland dealt with all pricing and purchasing. Total of 20 Blue Coat appliances, going to 15 destinations across Europe and North and South America. The US provided configuration and deployment for the 12 units going to North and South America.
