Understanding the difference between buying online and requesting a formal quotation at Technivision

Written by Rashed

Technivision offers two main ways to purchase: buying directly through the website, or requesting a formal quotation through the sales team. Here is how to decide which is right for you.

Option 1 — Buy directly on the website

Best for: individual buyers, small orders, standard products with listed prices.

  • Browse and add products to your cart at technivision.tech

  • Pay online using credit or debit card (Visa / Mastercard)

  • Order is confirmed immediately after payment

  • Best for: laptops, monitors, printers, accessories, and small networking items

Option 2 — Request a formal quotation

Best for: corporate customers, bulk orders, servers, infrastructure, and projects.

  • Contact the sales team via email, WhatsApp, or website form

  • Provide product details: brand, model/part number, quantity, delivery location

  • Receive a formal PDF quotation with pricing, availability, and VAT breakdown

  • Confirm order → receive invoice → pay → order is processed

  • Best for: servers, storage, networking equipment, CCTV systems, and large orders

Key differences at a glance

  • Website purchase: instant, self-service, card payment, best for standard products

  • Quotation: tailored pricing, flexible payment (bank transfer, cheque), formal invoice, best for B2B and projects
