Tech-as-a-Service
Like all good ideas, Tech-as-a-Service is simple. Instead of buying hardware outright, you pay a monthly (or weekly, quarterly or whatever frequency suits) subscription for your hardware, across a huge range of vendors, whatever it is you need.
At the end of the contract period, you either make a new deal, hand the equipment back or upgrade to the latest version of the product. Add in software, services and maintenance – and it sounds like it’s getting more complicated, but in fact, it’s just as simple – everything can be placed under the same contract with one regular fee being paid.
Benefits of subscription based model:
• Combine hardware, software and services into a low-cost subscription.
• Access to the latest technology.
• Optimise IT budgets and simplify asset management.
• Reduce complexity in IT support.
• Simplify bills and realise significant cost savings.
Audio Visual
The Comcen AV team can help you with video conferencing, digital signage and video walls, interactive screens, modern projectors, virtual reality, control systems and video surveillance.
Benefits of AV in the workplace:
• Meetings can take place without leaving the office eliminating travel costs, the time taken to travel to meetings, and therefore can be seen to be a more productive use of your teams time.
• AV technology can improve your communication methods and enable you to update content at the click of a button, keeping your messages current and making sure everyone is on the same page.
• Remote working becomes an effective and realistic option so that you can widen your geographic location and hire the best talent.
• Traditional print is static, digital alternatives show video, social media updates, photos, news feeds and adverts, creating a dynamic content that engages with its audience.
• AV technology is scalable. This means you can control displays from multiple locations within a single source via an existing network.

The importance of Cyber Security:

Comcen can help you with Software License Optimisation because we understand software licencing models and we can help with free software audits to help you to maximise software use, while minimising spend.
Software Licencing Benefits:
• Software is important to your business productivity, enabling your staff to work to maximum capacity.
• The correct software can assist you with improving your resources, manageability and distribution to many devices, improving your employee’s experience.
• Buying software has progressed from purchasing software upfront and paying the full price before use, to paying for software as you use it, with different providers offering different licencing models. This flexibility helps you to choose the correct payment option for your business and, in some cases, scales payment alongside business growth, seasons and/or events.
