Why Computer Waves is closely associated with Dell?

This Brand is very friendly and supportive not only with its customers but also with its Partners and Distributors.

Since we were doing good business with Dell we were awarded the topmost and prestigious status which is Dell Titanium Partner.

As we all know that computer waves is mainly associated with Dell products such as inspiron (Laptop and Desktop), Vostro (Laptop & Desktop), Dell enterprise Products such as optiplex, Latitude, workstation, server, storage, Monitors, Projectors and Dell spares.

As a distributor what are the Key trends you notice among the channel partners while selling enterprise solutions?

The Key trends that we notice among the channel partners while selling enterprise solutions is that, they have transformed themselves from selling boxes to Solutions nowadays. In addition, they make it a point that they have an end to end solution for their customer such as selling CCTV Solutions, Networking, along with IT Products.

What is the unique feature that Computer waves have got when compared to other Distributor?

The unique feature that we feel from other Distributor is very simple as we don’t approach end-user at all for business. Each and every sale of ours is done only to channel partners.

What are the top three reasons that you would recommend for the channel partner to select Dell?

The first reason is that most of the products are readily available in stock. It has a good logistics team which would help us in prompt delivery of goods so that partner’s commitments to their customers are fulfilled on time. As we all know that this is a brand known for it’s after sales service, especially when it comes to channel partners the service is instant and the issues are rectified with at most priority.
