At ETB Technologies we are committed to giving you the very best value for money on a huge range of IT equipment. In the unlikely event that you find the same product on sale in the UK at a lower price, we will match it.
At ETB we’re confident in our testing procedures and the quality of the items we sell. For this reason we offer robust warranties on all orders. Everything apart from batteries and some clearance items are supplied with a minimum of 1-year warranty included, however the majority of our product range comes with a 3-year standard warranty. We also offer the opportunity for you to upgrade your warranty to include onsite technical support.
UK next day delivery as standard and worldwide shipping available. Orders placed before 2pm which require no configuration will ship that day. For items requiring configuration or additional testing please allow an extra 24 hours. All orders are sent on fully tracked services and our team will keep you updated on the progress of your order.
By Peter Miller, ETB’s Sales Manager On my very first day at ETB, five years ago, it was clear to me right away that this company genuinely cares about customer service excellence. Poor customer service, or poor customer experiences have always been a bugbear of mine. So many companies talk about it, but very few actually live it. I’ve had various roles in my 15-years in the refurbished IT sector, and in every one of them, providing excellent customer experiences has been a top priority. The sales team here at ETB is 11-strong, split into online and offline sales, with some support roles too. Some of the team are very long-serving, and others have been here less than a year, so we have a great mix of established knowledge and fresh ideas.
In the first part of our storage blog series, we went back to basics and looked at what to consider when buying IT storage. In this next part, we get a little more specific – looking at the main differences between Direct Attached Storage (DAS) and Network Attached Storage (NAS). At the core of it, the main differences between the two systems relate to cost and control. Let’s ‘pop the hood’ on each type of storage system and learn more.
If you’re a small business that’s growing quickly, you may be wondering when is the right time to upgrade to enterprise IT hardware. You might have been getting by with entry-level equipment until now, but find yourself increasingly frustrated by its performance. You could also be asking yourself what makes enterprise hardware different – and why the price tag goes up by so much!
The days are getting shorter, the clocks have gone back, and the Christmas tinsel is starting to go up. It can only mean one thing – it’s time for Black Friday.
Last year, British consumers splashed out a whopping £7.5bn on discounts and deals over the course of the Black Friday weekend, with more than two in every three pounds being spent online. While this is a vital time for retailers to boost revenue and increase their customer base, it is notorious for placing abnormally high workloads on systems and processes. Because of this additional strain, it is still not uncommon for backend systems to go down, taking sales and reputations with them – not beneficial on the busiest sales weekend of the year.
One of the biggest advantages of buying refurbished server components from ETB is that our lower prices allow you to achieve a higher specification for the same budget. This will increase productivity amongst your team as well as increasing performance for your customers, especially if your server hosts an e-commerce website or data heavy information such as videos.
