Scomis Online Store update

We launched Scomis Online Store only two months ago, and so far we have helped just shy of 70 trusts and schools purchase best value technology for their establishments. 

We built our Online Store to enable our customers to save time and money. The categories in the store were developed with Scomis' deep knowledge of our customers' needs in mind. And the products in the categories are the most in-demand products for nationwide education establishments. Our goal is to be as useful as possible to anyone procuring techology, anywhere in the country, for any education establishment.

If you are responsible for sourcing and purchasing secure storage, laptops, tablets, refurbished devices and accessories, Scomis Online Store enables you to 

  • Research the right technology for your systems, staff and pupils 
  • Get easy quotes so you can raise a purchase order 
  • Purchase technology to be delivered direct to your establishment

You can access Scomis Online Store from our website where it has its own dropdown menu labelled Scomis NEW Online Store. If you're curious but not yet ready to explore your options, you can read more about the store.

Here's our three-minute video introduction
