Hardware stock display added in the Avanet shop
Most people prefer not to order from an online retailer when it is unclear whether the product is actually in stock. Until recently, our website also did not show stock information, which meant that many customers called to ask.
At least for our customers in Switzerland and Liechtenstein, stock levels for hardware products are now visible on the Avanet website.
This feature was clearly overdue, but we first had to adapt some internal processes so that we could implement it technically. The effort has definitely paid off, and stock information on the website is now updated several times a day.
FAQs
We have prepared a brief FAQ in advance. If you have any further questions, simply contact us via the contact form.
Why are stock levels not shown in real time?
We receive stock data every two hours as a CSV file from our distributors. Unfortunately, we do not have real-time access to this data either.
Why is the visible stock level only relevant for Switzerland and Liechtenstein?
Stock shortages for Sophos hardware only affect customers in Switzerland and Liechtenstein. All other countries are supplied directly from our EU warehouse. That warehouse is large enough that shortages are extremely unlikely, so showing a stock level there would add little value.
