VAR brings out web catalogue
Q Associates unveils site for Sun products
Reseller Q Associates has introduced its own online configuration web site for Sun products.
Recently, Sun launched the Syndicated Catalogue, which gives resellers product details and functionality online. But Andy Griffith, business development manager at Q Associates, said the firm preferred to build its own site.
"Q has had an online quote request system for about three years. We want to retain flexibility and control," he said.
Q Associates' site allows buyers to assemble components and add warranty and support.
Clive Longbottom, service director at Quocirca, said: "The best thing vendors can do is to build the catalogues with XML, which makes it easier for VARs to squirt it into their sites."
