The mortgage aggregator Vow Financial has broken fresh ground by establishing an exciting arrangement with the computer giant Dell to get its brokers large discounts on computers.

The deal Vow has entered into with Dell means brokers will get discounts on Dell's computer packages ranging from 10 per cent to 40 per cent.

Vow CIO Alan Gibbons says: "This is an enormous benefit for our brokers. Their computers are obviously an integral part of their business, and to be able to get significant discounts will be an enormous saving.

"I suspect many brokers have been delaying upgrading their computer systems, waiting to see how business would pick up in the wake of the GFC, and this could be just the incentive they need to modernise their systems."

Gibbons says the agreement with Dell has emphasised making it "extremely easy" for brokers to buy a computer. "They can order directly through the Vow website and have the computer delivered directly to their office. In addition, they get a three year premier service agreement provided by an Australian-based call centre," he says.
