Dell Corporation (Thailand) has announced two new services to support enterprise customers and expects them to be key for potential business in the near future.
Moreover, it will announce a new tablet based on Windows 8 in the fourth quarter of this year.
Ekaraj Panjavnin, country manager of Dell Thailand, said the two new services would be for applications and security solutions.
With the first one, it will provide modernisation services for applications, including integration of legacy systems into open platforms.
“I think that our new services will have high potential for growth in the near future, since enterprise customers will spend much more for professional services, and they will be able to focus on their core business by utilising their application on the cloud,” Ekaraj said.
Dell services now come with global support and deployment, providing onsite service, customisation and outsourcing. Its infrastructure and cloud unit offers integration services, data centres and other cloud infrastructure.
The firm moreover will service businesses in Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar and Cambodia, focusing on enterprise and corporate customers.
Ekaraj said the firm at first would not forecast revenue from the two new services, since they were a start-up business in Thailand.
Meanwhile, Dell headquarters reported revenue from business services of US$2.1 billion (Bt65 billion) in the May-July quarter of its fiscal year, up 3 per cent, with new signings of more than $1 billion in the first half.
Ekaraj added that the firm planned to come out with new tablets based on the Windows 8 and Windows 8 RT environments for both the consumer and enterprise markets in the final quarter of this calendar year.
