Local engineers from Xeretec are also based on the Islands to service devices, ensure fast response times and provide an efficient and reliable service all year round.

The firm will showcase a number of new devices during the road shows including the new Xerox AltaLink and Xerox VersaLink devices. The new portfolio transforms traditional printers into smart connected workplace assistants designed to meet the needs of the evolving workplace, complete with tablet-like touch screens, productivity boosting apps and state-of the-art security. The devices are also mobile and Cloud ready for extra convenience. The company will also be showcasing document management software to help people improve workflow in their business.

We like to hold a roadshow in the Islands to allow our clients in the area to have firsthand experience of our new technology and solutions. We’d encourage companies to come and see us to find out why so many local businesses already deal with Xeretec.”
