Technology Assessment Services (TAS)
For unbiased technical explanations, evaluations and recommendations regarding popular or emerging software and services, turn to Technology
Assessment Services (TAS) at Insight. The certified TAS engineers are available to find solutions from both new and popular software publishers. We’re
able to evaluate products that fall under our core competency areas by utilizing a lab equipped with multiple servers for testing software products. Using
our test results, TAS creates product evaluation guides which may help when deciding which product best suits your technology needs.
For help in uncovering the best solution options, you should engage with the TAS Engineers at the pre-sales stage by either sending detailed solution
requirements via
e-mail to
TAS@insight.com, or request participation in a conference call between TAS, Sales and the Client.
