Tactile Technologies welcomed Unitech to South Africa this month for a two-city product tour, with events in Johannesburg on 13 October and in Cape Town on 15 October. Organised by the Tactile team, the tour brought Unitech’s experts together with existing and potential customers for presentations, live product demonstrations and expert-led conversations.
Popular Unitech devices for South African businesses
Tactile supplies Unitech’s full range of enterprise mobile computers, rugged handheld devices, industrial tablets, bar code scanners, RFID readers and IOT solutions. Three devices stand out as popular choices with Tactile customers.
EA530 rugged smartphone. A rugged smartphone built for demanding work environments. The EA530 has achieved SITA approval, which makes it straightforward for public sector buyers to procure.
EA660 rugged enterprise handheld. A rugged enterprise handheld designed for staff who capture data on the move, from warehouse floors to retail aisles and field operations.
RT112 rugged tablet. A rugged 10.1-inch Windows 11 tablet for warehousing, logistics, retail, hospitality and healthcare, where a larger screen and a tough build both matter.
A partnership built on local support
Tactile announced its partnership with Unitech in February 2024, bringing the Taiwan-founded data capture specialist to the South African market. Tactile is a recognised Unitech distributor for South Africa and the Unitech Service Partner for the country, offering in-house repairs and support. Its team has trained with Unitech on the product lines and technologies, including the MoboLink device management platform.
Steven Baeyens, Director Products and Projects, Tactile Technologies.
At the time, Steven Baeyens, Director of Products and Projects at Tactile Technologies, said: “Adding Unitech to our portfolio was a natural choice.”
Backed for the full life cycle
Every Unitech deployment can be supported by Tactile’s value-added services: extended warranties of up to seven years, comprehensive all-in cover, insurance and custom SLAs, with remote device management and a Johannesburg service centre that holds spare parts stock.
