computer rental from Rent IT

News - 2004 April

Wire less = problems less

We have all seen the adverts on TV, "work from anywhere using wireless technology" round your house, your garden etc but is the reality this good?

Well it certainly seems to be in some applications. With an eye to the future Rent IT has made its initial investment in this technology with purchase of a range of wireless hardware. With wireless cards for both PC's and Laptops along with stand alone hubs Rent It is now well placed to meet customer requirements.

So what's the benefits?

Well right on our doorstep we have the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre, looking to the future, last year, they installed a complete wireless system. As a regular supplier to exhibitors at the AECC Rent IT can now provide a complete range of hardware compatible with the AECC systems and available for short term rental to meet exhibitor's requirements. This is exactly the technology being used during next month at the AECC when Rent IT sponsors the All Energy Exhibition as well as supporting may of the exhibitors.

This application may not be of much interest unless you are coming to the AECC (or attending a similarly equipped exhibition venue) but there are other important benefits to consider

Traditionally if you wished to arrange a training course and needed all PC's or laptops networked it meant running cables all over the floor and probably employing an IT professional to put it all together. With wireless technology this approach is now a thing of the past.

Rent IT can provide a complete suite of equipment, laptops or PC's all networked and ready to go "straight our of the box" No longer do you need to spend time installing cabling and employing an expensive IT engineer. This technology often makes it easier to link into existing networks within your chosen venue.

This approach doesn't just benefit the customer but has also proved a boon for Rent IT. Where cabled networks are required to be installed we all too often receive the call from the customer requiring technical assistance because something wasn't talking to something else. The big advantage of wireless technology is that we fully set up and test your system prior to despatch. As there is no wires to plug in, hubs to install etc on site, we have reduced the level of service calls received as well as removing the customer's requirement to have skilled technicians on site. (Not to mention reduced time to set up and remove)
