Configuration Services
At daqintech.com, our Certified Engineers can integrate and configure your equipment, prior to ship. Our quality control processes will ensure that your equipment is up, running and ready when it arrives at your facility. We will save your staff valuable time, money and allow them to deal with your daily adds, moves and changes.
Our purpose built Configuration Center has been designed to offer a range of customized services from server roll-outs to complex infrastructure projects involving datacenter clusters and storage networks.
Why Pre-configure Your Equipment?
-
Minimize DOA issues, ensuring your resources are not tied-up waiting for system issues to be fixed before solution implementation.
Focus on implementation of the overall solution rather than integration and testing of systems. Add extra capacity at times when resources are stretched or unavailable and extra skills where there is a gap. The Configuration Center builds your solution in our state-of-the-art, ISO 9001:2000 certified; electrostatic discharge (ESD) controlled department.
