We are pleased to announce the introduction of Easy Connect BTO (ProLiant EC200a) products to iQuote, extending the portfolio of products on offer.
An Easy Connect configurator has been specifically designed and developed into iQuote to assist users in navigating the complex product rules. Users of iQuote are now able to configure Easy Connect products through a simple step by step wizard to ensure an accurate configuration every time.
Once you have selected your Easy Connect SKU, users are prompted to start the wizard:
After starting the wizard, users are asked a series of questions to select from such as:
-
Model
-
Storage and Accessories
-
Operating System
-
Additional Services
-
Hardware and Support
On response to all of the questions, users are given the option to ‘Update Basket’ as shown below:
Easy Connect will then form part of your quotation and users can be assured of a fully validated configuration. We hope that you will enjoy using the new Easy Connect configurator and that it gives you the confidence to quote this great new addition to the iQuote product portfolio!

What’s the difference?
The words Fiber and Fibre are often swapped, most people assume that it is American versus UK spelling, but that is wrong. Fiber is actually the Fiber optic cable whereas Fibre is a generic term to describe the Fabric, which can include both Fiber and Copper technology that links your storage, switches and servers.
OM stands for Optical Multi-mode (multiple rays of light simultaneously) and the 4 refers to the latest version that can extend communications up to 300 meters at 10 Gb/s.

HP offers free hard drive with HP ProLiant G6 Server and Care Pack discount. HP has launched End User Cashback offers for April 2010 and the good news is that these offers are now live and available to users of iQuote immediately. The offers are available from April 1st all the way through to April 30th:
- Purchase a ProLiant G6 server together with at least two 146GB Small Form Factor hard drives, and HP will refund the cost of one of these drives.
- In support of this promotion, when you purchase 5 Year, 4 Hour 24 x 7 DMR HP Care Pack with your chosen server under the above offer, HP will give you up to £400 cash back.
iQuote shows the End User Cashbacks but doesn’t add them to the Basket as the End User must claim directly from HP.

The easiest way to quote HP ProLiant Max Quantity Discounts. Use iQuote to ensure that you have factored in all of the available promotions from HP. This includes the HP ProLiant “Max Quantity Discounts” where Server Options are available promotionally priced but capped per system unit. iQuote provides a highly intuitive way to identify discounted options but also automatically handles the quantity capping.
Calculating these off a spreadsheet is time consuming and unintuitive. Also iQuote helps with the lifecycle of the quotation so that when a quote is re-opened it will warn you if these discounts are no longer available.
iQuote’s main objective is to enhance the sales experience. For more information on iQuote visit:

iQuote now offers more HP ProLiant options. Our stated aim is to handle as many server configurations in iQuote as possible without Sales needing to manually add options afterwards. With that in mind we have expanded the supported options to include Host Channel Adapters (aka Host Bus Adapters) for attaching Servers to Storage Area Networks. We’ve also added more UPSs to include larger UPS sizes.
If you are an HP iQuote user and you spot an option that you want to sell and it is NOT visible in iQuote please use the Feedback form at the bottom of your screen to tell us. Thanks from the channelcentral team.
