Stock and ETA before you pay
Most online stores show "in stock" and mean "somewhere". BE Direct shows the distributor's stock level and the delivery estimate for your state before you commit: VIC 12, NSW 4, QLD 0, more due on a date. If the answer is "two weeks", you know it before the purchase order, not after.
A quote, not a cart
Businesses do not buy twenty handsets on a credit card at 4 pm. Ask for a quote and you get a formal document with volume pricing where it applies, valid for a stated time, that your approver can sign. Pay by card, PayPal, or on account once you are set up.
Hardware with the services around it
A router is not much use without the line it sits on, and handsets are not much use without a phone system. Because BE Direct is part of Binary Elements, a quote can carry the NBN and managed router, the phone system and the Yeastar system on one proposal, with one company to call afterwards.
What is in the catalogue
Networking (switches, firewalls, access points, routers), compute (desktops, laptops, servers), storage and NAS, peripherals and accessories, and the handsets and headsets we deploy on BE Voice. Shipped direct from the distributor's Australian warehouse.
After delivery
The same support desk that runs the network helps with what you bought. If a switch arrives dead, you ring the people who sold it and who were going to configure it, not a marketplace.
Questions people ask
Do you price-match the big retailers?
Often, and we will tell you when we cannot. Where we are dearer it is usually because the quote includes configuration or a service that the retailer price does not.
Can I buy as a consumer?
Yes, the store is open to anyone. The quotes, accounts and proposals are for businesses.
