NCC DATA

We couldn't agree more with this. Deep human relationships drive trust. And trust is behind most good business outcomes. When you partner with our team to procure technology… You're not just gaining access to us. You're gaining access to the network we've curated over 25 years.

No disrespect to beautiful websites... But, this is something that is often missed in the IT procurement process. The best marketed product is not always the best product. Or the best value. Cutting through the marketing noise takes work... But it's important that we do it.

The problem for most IT leaders isn’t making great product decisions... Or even negotiating the best price... It's the time this takes. We'll run the process on your behalf, so you have one less thing to worry about.

With demand for data centers skyrocketing due to AI… (And not seemingly slowing any time soon) It’s important for IT leadership teams to continue to keep a tight watch on both their cloud usage and their cloud pricing. If you’d like a partner to connect with on some effective monitoring strategies, drop us a line. We’d be happy to help.

The value of a piece of technology is increasingly tied to how well it works with other pieces of technology... Especially within our existing stack. Few considerations should be higher on our list than this one in 2024.

It's easy to think that non-technical users don't "care" about the technology we choose for them... But, the reality is? Many DO have an opinion. And these opinions are often really valuable. Don't be afraid to go ask them what they think!

Too many executives make the mistake of treating UCaaS like a commodity... And constantly chase the lowest price. From where we sit, though? Getting more value out of the 100 salaries you're already paying... Matters a whole lot more than saving 2% on their phone bills.

Don’t be afraid to push back on vendor price increases. If this is the third year in a row you’ve gotten a message like this and you want help tackling it… Let us know.

Don’t measure your vendor by whether they ever face challenges. Every software experiences downtime… Every company can make a billing mistake… And customer success managers are human, too. So, instead? Measure how a vendor responds WHEN they make a mistake… Because this will tell you everything you need to know.

It never hurts to ask. Whether you need a lower price, a different feature, or extra add-ons… Sometimes a vendor’s answer will be no—and that’s OK. It never hurts to ask for what you want… And if you partner with us? We’ll do the awkward asking for you.
