What we do
Solwise do technical distribution. By this we mean that we do more than just shift boxes. All our products are carefully selected to represent the best value for money within their sector. If we can't offer something special in a product range we don't carry it.
We also understand our products. Whether you need help selecting a product before buying, or help to get your system working when it arrives, we will be able to give quality advice. This is because we are a small company and care about your business, as well as ours.
Quality Policy
At Solwise we have considered adopting a quality standard such as
ISO9002. After investigating these schemes we have decided not to
take this route.
Although we use many of the mechanisms of the recognised schemes, such
as bar-code tracking, batch testing and record keeping, we feel that
the rigid imposition of a procedures-manual approach would reduce rather
than increase the quality of our service. This is because we understand
'quality' as representing something much more than conformance to
specification, and consider that a registered scheme would damage the
flexibility that we can offer our customers. Our flexibility enables us
to respond quickly to customer requirements without adopting formal
procedures for every exception to normal mechanisms.
Solwise don't have a formal mission statement, it would be a little too
'management-speak' for us, however we do rather admire IBMs 'Think' and
Googles 'Do no evil'. If we ever did adopt a mission statement I suspect
we would definitely choose 'Care!' rather than 'Remember to fill the form in!'.
Our Specialities
Our main areas are Home Networking, Wide area WiFi, ADSL, VoIP and Digital Media. Wherever computers meet telephone lines we will probably have something to offer.

The Company Office
If you are in or around Hull, and want to call to collect your order then please be aware that we do not have a shop front. We would be happy to see you during weekday office hours but we don't open on Saturdays. If you want to call on us then here's how to find us:

From the M62:
The M62 becomes the A63. Once you have gone under the Humber Bridge, take the exit marked Hessle which takes you to Priory Way. Turn left at Priory Way, then take the next left (at the lights) onto Saxon Way. Go over the roundabout and follow the road until you come to Priory Tec Park. You will want gate 3 on your left. Follow the road and we are Unit 17.
