“In 18 months, you’ve put 30 new devices into

seven offices and taken over 75 legacy HP machines.

You’ve rolled out new print management software

and provided first class training. It has all gone very

smoothly and, I am happy to say, you have taken

away the headache of managing such a big fleet.

Your remote management service gives us such fast

turnaround on call-outs and consumable deliveries,

that my IT people are spending a lot more time

resolving IT issues instead of changing toner and

troubleshooting printers. There has been a lot of

positive feedback from staff, not least our claims team,

who have reported so much time saved that they have

been able to improve their claims settling targets.”

IT DIRECTOR, INSURANCE COMPANY, LONDON

You will meet many people at Balreed Digitec.

Your main point of contact, the sales consultant,

is supported by an analyst or someone from the

management team, the delivery crew, the IT and

installation technicians, trainers and a national

network of service engineers. Call our helpdesk

and you will always get a quick response,

by a real person, who takes full responsibility

for resolving your enquiry.

The people who work for us really care about giving

you the best possible service and have the technical

skills to match. People who know how important it

is that your office equipment works efficiently and

seamlessly so you can focus on the other things

that matter. People who will listen carefully to

what you need and then go the extra mile.
