Solutions & IT Support- IT Support Plans
Computers and technology are integral to the operations of most businesses in New Zealand. While the technology a business owner has at their disposal makes like easier than ever before, it can also create a real nightmare when things go wrong. The business support team at Advanced Computers understands the needs of businesses. We know that business owners are looking for ways to use technology to work smarter and improve the bottom line. We also know that businesses can’t afford down time from their IT systems and are looking for a reliable partner that will support them and ensure that technology is enhancing their business, not restricting it. Preventative maintenance & network health checks Just like a car, computers, servers and other IT systems require regular maintenance and health checks to ensure trouble free operation and prevent expensive outages and downtime. It is better to pay a little every month to keep your IT systems in good shape than to ride your luck and be hit with a catastrophic failure that is not only expensive to fix, but also costs your business dearly through lost productivity. On-call support – Phone / Remote / Onsite In addition to preventative maintenance, it is also important for a business to have an IT partner to call on for support on a day to day basis. When a problem needs to be solved, Advanced Computers can turn to industry leading remote assistance technology to ‘dial’ into a user’s computer and attempt to fix the problem. For our Auckland based customers, we can also send one of our expert technician’s onsite to troubleshoot the problem if the situation requires it. From adding new users to a network environment, to providing software support and trouble shooting email issues, it is reassuring to know that a reliable IT partner is only a phone call or email away. All for a modest monthly investment To help keep your business running smoothly Advanced Computers offers tailor made IT Support Plans designed specifically for the needs of businesses. We don’t believe in a one-size-fits all approach and can custom make a support plan based on your unique requirements. - IT Solutions

If you would like to upgrade to a new computer, Advanced Computers makes it easy to trade-in your old laptop, netbook, tablet, all-in-one PC or Macintosh for a sizeable discount off one of the very latest models.

Advanced Computers accepts a wide range of computer for trade-in including laptops, netbooks, tablets, all-in-one PCs, Apple iMacs, Macbooks, iPads and MacPro. Unfortunately we do not accept trade-ins for Windows based desktop computers. What condition does my computer have to be in? Advanced Computers are happy to accept trade-ins of computers that are damaged or faulty (water damage not included). My computer is quite old, can I still trade it in? Provided your computer meets our criteria above, Advanced Computers doesn’t put age restrictions on trade-ins. Please be aware that very old computers (older than 5 years) have very little value and the trade-in price will reflect this. How much discount will I get off a new computer by trading my old one in?
