Discounted software for charities and non-profits
We have been working with a few charities in the Yorkshire area and I have to say I am shocked to find they don’t know about the discounts on offer when buying software and services! Have a look at this website:
Most registered charities and certain non-profit organisations qualify for heavily discounted software from quite a number of providers so I wanted to share the discounts that are available. I have picked out a few choice packages from their price list and compared them to the standard pricing on the internet from a typical supplier.
| Product | Retail Price | Discounted Price | % Saving |
|---|---|---|---|
| Microsoft Windows 7 Professional (32 or 64bit) | £ 158.62 | £ 5.88 | 96% |
| Microsoft Office Professional 2007 | £ 269.60 | £ 12.93 | 95% |
| Microsoft Small Business Server 2008 Premium Edition | £ 1,101.22 | £ 45.83 | 96% |
| Symantec Endpoint Protection (10 licenses) | £ 291.38 | £ 43.48 | 85% |
| Cisco 520 Wireless Router for ADSL | £ 437.09 | £ 58.75 | 87% |
All the prices include VAT as IT supplies and services still attract VAT even for charities 🙁 But what fantastic savings!
So if you are a charity looking to invest in technology to help you raise money and connect with your donors and clients use this service and save yourself a pile of money! If you want some help gathering your thoughts contact me.
