Cutting Edge Technology with a Personal Touch: Techbuyer Launches HPE Server Configurator

For all those who want a fast, flawless and self-sufficient way to configure Gen 8 to 10 HPE servers, Techbuyer introduces its HPE server configurator. Our tool enables visitors to experiment with different solutions, swap components in and out according to budget, and discover the best server solution for their specific requirements.

How does our configurator work?

Our configurator accurately matches parts. It is backed by HPE’s compatibility engine, which means that only workable configurations can be created. Our technical experts spent over a year developing and finetuning the tool, ensuring that users can configure an accurate server solution all within three minutes.

How do I use it?

What is truly unique about this tool is that you start from the chassis and configure a fully working server from the very first component, rather than beginning with a server that has pre-configured starting components. This enables users to personalize a server for their environment as much as possible. From there, you can make selections of other required components like CPU, memory and power supplies, then additional option categories such as network cards and hard drives.

See our video below for a step by step guide of how to use the HPE server configurator.

What happens after I’ve configured my server?

Once you have picked a server, compatible memory, power supply and other components, our system generates an inquiry that is sent directly to our Configure-to-Order specialists, who get back to you with a quote within 60 minutes.

Our HPE accredited team, who have decades of experience and configure over 5,000 servers every year, can suggest a range of alternatives before configuring your server. For instance, hybrid configurations which combine new and refurbished equipment or third party components which are suitable, further maximising your IT budget.

With a 25-point recertification process, rigorous testing and a three year warranty on all equipment, our Configure-to-Order service provides secure, quality and cost-effective IT solutions. We have a global stock of 225,000 IT parts ensuring that whatever configuration you choose, we will always have the components to configure it. If you need this equipment quickly, we ship next day from our engineering facilities in the US, France, the UK and Australia to businesses across the world.

At the moment, our HPE server configurator is exclusively for HPE servers and component parts. As our most popular brand, this seemed like the ideal place to start. Going forwards, we are looking to develop tools for our other major brands like Dell. This will give customers even more choice when it comes to shopping through our website.
