Take a glimpse at the fully automated future of IT support
Our vision has always been to automate every possible part of the IT equipment provisioning process. We believe that if a laptop is in one of our lockers, all the other steps in getting a laptop built, patched and collected by a user should be fully automated.
And the first big milestone in this journey is to have a Smart Locker capable of charging laptops, smartphones and tablets with wired network connectivity which can allow laptops to be quickly imaged, patched or repaired.
Which is why we have developed the Velocity Smart’s new Element Spark series – the world’s first ServiceNow app-connected Smart Locker with combination mains and fully managed network connectivity.
