Why Hardware Decisions Deserve More Attention

Most businesses treat hardware as a commodity purchase, buying whatever is cheapest or most familiar without much consideration of whether it is the right fit for the people using it.

The cost of getting hardware wrong is rarely obvious on a spreadsheet. A laptop that takes twice as long to complete a task, crashes regularly or requires frequent support calls costs the business in lost time and frustration.

Lifecycle management is equally important. Without a clear picture of your device estate, you end up dealing with failures reactively rather than on a planned basis.

Industry-wide data from the last 18 months

70% of downtime is preventable through better monitoring
70% of businesses expected to use managed device lifecycle services by 2028
17.4% of global e-waste is properly recycled, the rest goes to waste

Advice You Can Trust

We recommend hardware based on your team's actual requirements, not on what is cheapest or most convenient to supply.

Procurement and Deployment Handled

We source hardware at competitive prices and manage the deployment process, including setup, configuration and delivery to your team.

Avoid Emergency Replacement

We track your device estate and give you clear visibility of where hardware is in its lifecycle, so refresh decisions are planned rather than reactive.

Hardware Guidance From People Who Use It Every Day

We work with business hardware every day, and that practical experience informs the advice we give. We know which products perform well in business environments and where the pitfalls are.

We also think about hardware as part of your wider IT environment, making sure every piece of hardware we deploy is set up to work seamlessly within your existing setup.

Smashdown Consultants

There to help even if you're not sure what to do!

AOIT are always there to help, even when I wasn't sure what the solution is! A few weeks ago, I tried to call a contact. The outbound call didn't work, so I dropped them a text, and they were unable to reach me either. Having worked with Andrew a few times previously, I decided to get in touch with him, even though it was none of his equipment causing issues.
