CompUtopia has been providing product and services to higher education institutions and their students for the last 7 years. As the need for student computing support grew in the customer base, CompUtopia created a student notebook program with marketing support, web site ordering, on-campus promotions and after market total support programs.
The programs have been highly successful and we add schools every year. In 2006, CompUtopia partnered exclusively with HP to develop the CampusHP program. HP plans to grow their market in HED and CompUtopia had the expertise and the experience to help that initiative. CampusHP now is engaged in over 50 institutions across the country.
The CampusHP Student Notebook Program has been created by CompUtopia and HP with total student support in mind. CampusHP can totally outsource a student notebook program or engage in only certain aspects of the program. The range of services CampusHP Program offers are :
