Craftix Helps Save You Money Allowing you to Maximize Your ROI

In todays ever changing IT market, we understand that all companies, regardless of size need to keep their IT costs down. We help you to do just that, by using a different methodology then our competitors.

In most cases when you deal with other firms they try to sell you the product and the installation and setup. As a consumer you end up paying more for the equipment/products involved due to middleman markups, sometimes of 20% or more. Our methodology is different; we analyze your environment, suggest what equipment you need to achieve your goals and then work with major vendors we have relationships with to help get you the best price. Then we let you buy it directly from the vendor without any markup! You get to benefit from our relationships with major vendors as though you had bigger buying power because your working with us. Then we install and configure it. You only ever pay us for labor.

Our method saves the middleman charges you would ordinarily pay for the equipment you need. In addition for most network design/build projects we charge by the job, not by the hour, so there are no hidden or surprise costs. Finally, in situations when we do have to charge by the hour, our labor rates are very competitive, in some cases we have found as much as 50% lower than other firms!
