Introduction

As a direct response to the COVID-19 outbreak, a number of companies are currently

debating whether or not they should offer their employees the opportunity to work from home on

a permanent basis. This action is being taken as a direct response to the epidemic that is currently

going on. This is because businesses have been put under intense pressure to implement it as a

means of surviving the pandemic that we are currently living through. As a result, this has

occurred. As a direct consequence of this, the business has arrived at the conclusion that in the

not-too-distant future, rather than retaining any desktop Computers, it will transition to relying

solely on laptops to fulfill all of its computing demands. This decision was made in light of the

fact that desktop Computers are becoming increasingly obsolete. This decision was made as a

direct result of the previous one being made. This article's goal is to act as a yardstick by

comparing three distinct solutions with regard to their pricing, the degree to which they are

technologically stable, and the degree to which they are flexible. This comparison will be made

between the three solutions in terms of their flexibility, technological stability, and degree. In

order to come up with a proposal that has a chance of being put into action, we are going to carry

out research on three different companies that specialize in the provision of technical solutions.

Alternative 1: Dell

The well-known technology company Dell sells a selection of laptops that are appropriate

for use in professional environments. These laptops may be found under the company's business

section. These portable computers are available in a dizzying array of forms, dimensions, and

configurations. Customers have access to a large variety of laptops from which to pick, including

those that are a part of series such as Latitude, Precision, and Vostro. When designing the

Precision series, focus was given to the needs of creative professionals and when building the
 2

Latitude series, consideration was given to the needs of business users. The Vostro is an option

that is not only cost-effective but also ideally suited for use in establishments of a size that is

more easily managed than those that are significantly larger. There is a wide variety of pricing

options available for Dell laptops, and the options that are available change depending on the

model and series of the laptop in question.

Alternative 2: Lenovo

Another well-known company, Lenovo, which is in the business of producing laptops and

other similar electronic devices, specializes in making laptops that are appropriate for use in

settings that are considered to be professional. These portable computers are available for

purchase by businesses. The ThinkPad product line from Lenovo has received considerable

appreciation over the years because to its dependable and long-lasting nature, which are

characteristic qualities of the device. At the earlier phases of its development, it was envisioned

to be utilized in business settings such as offices and conference rooms when it was first put into

production. There are three unique series of laptops that are available for purchase, and they are

branded as follows: the ThinkPad X series, the ThinkPad T series, and the ThinkPad P series.

Each of these series is named after a letter of the alphabet. The P series is the most powerful and

cutting-edge of the three, whilst the X series is the most compact and lightweight of the three.

The pricing points that are made available for laptops that are manufactured by Lenovo span a

wide range, and these ranges alter depending on the series and features of the particular laptop

that is being referred to here.

Alternative 3: HP
 3

HP, a well-known company in the world of technology, is in charge of the development

of a wide variety of portable computing devices, the vast majority of which are appropriate for

use in professional environments. These devices can be purchased directly from HP's website.

The HP EliteBook series is distinguished by a high level of security as well as exceptional

durability, and it is designed to be utilized in settings that are specifically associated with

professional undertakings. This is because the HP EliteBook series was designed from the

ground up with these characteristics in mind from the very beginning of the project. The

EliteBook is available in three distinct iterations, which are designated by the numbers 800,

1000, and 2000, respectively. Any one of these variations can be purchased on its own. The 800

model is the one that will save you the most money, while the 2000 model will provide you the

greatest flexibility in terms of its capabilities. When it comes to HP laptops, you have a wide

variety of price points from which to choose; each of these price points corresponds to a

particular series of laptops and a distinctive group of qualities.

Comparative Analysis

The price of a laptop can vary quite a lot depending on the model series that it belongs to

as well as the functions that are pre-installed on the device itself. The Precision series of laptops

manufactured by Dell is one example of why Dell's laptops, in general, have a higher price tag

than those manufactured by Lenovo and HP. These laptops are geared toward professionals

working in creative professions, which is one reason why they have a higher price tag. The

Precision line of laptops includes these portable computers, which are known as notebooks. The

prices of laptops manufactured by Dell and HP are significantly higher than the prices of laptops

manufactured by Lenovo. Laptops from Lenovo's X series, which are built by the company and

are designed to be portable; the prices of laptops manufactured by Lenovo are significantly lower
 4

than the prices of laptops manufactured by Dell and HP. The prices that HP demands for its

laptops are frequently comparable to the prices that HP's competitors ask for their respective

laptops.

Stability in terms of the underlying technology: each of the three companies sells laptops

that are suitable for use in corporate settings and do not advance in this particular regard. It is

general knowledge that renowned firms like Dell, Lenovo, and HP are known for manufacturing

laptops of a high quality. Other companies like Apple and Toshiba are also known for this.

Laptops that are suitable for working away from the office and that are available in a

variety of configurations to meet the needs of a wide range of users are what all three companies

use to provide their customers with the flexibility that is offered by the products they sell. In

addition, these laptops must be available in a wide range of configurations. Laptops

manufactured by Dell, Lenovo, and HP are sold in a broad variety of models, each of which

offers a distinctive combination of mobility, power, and battery life in compared to the products

manufactured by the company's competitors.

Recommendation

Following a lengthy period of deliberation on the subject, we have arrived at the verdict

that the organization in question ought to select Dell as its major computer supplier for the

workstations that the organization makes available to its customers. Even though Dell laptops,

especially those in the Precision series, have a higher average price than those manufactured by

Lenovo and HP, the performance and durability of Dell laptops are superior to those of Lenovo

and HP laptops. This is especially true with the Precision series of Dell laptops. When compared

to the Precise series, this observation becomes a great deal more crystal evident. Because Dell
 5

laptops are suited for such a wide variety of jobs inside the firm, including creative work, they

provide employees with a selection of possibilities from which they can choose to benefit.

Employees can choose to benefit from Dell laptops in a number of different ways. Because of

this, providing employees with the choice to use laptops may be something that piques their

interest.
