APPLUS Australia Selects TRINIX To Renew Aging IT Assets

“Ever since we engaged with TRINIX as a single point of contact for all our IT requirements, I have saved many hours of ‘shopping around’. TRINIX gave me timely advise, best service and competitive price. What sets TRINIX above the rest of past IT Resellers I have dealt with is COMMUNICATION. TRINIX have been excellent in providing timely updates on progressing orders/purchases. Even if there has been a delay, updates provided by TRINIX allows me to work around it, if required. In one occasion, there has been laptops supply shortages due to the pandemic, TRINIX was able to assist us with Rental Laptops to help us on our projects which otherwise would have been costly if we need to procure new equipment.

TRINIX E-SHOP portal (shop.trinix.com.au) has provided me convenience to purchase online or price check for budgeting purpose. With TRINIX, I never felt the need to engage with other resellers, which saves me the time and effort of negotiating with yet another supplier. TRINIX is always an email or a phone call away to get me what I need to for the current task. I will not hesitate to recommend TRINIX for all your IT needs.”
