DataCore Launches “Buy with Confidence” Program to Address Escalating Hardware Costs and Supply Constraints

DataCore, a data infrastructure and management company, announced the launch of its “Buy with Confidence” program, designed to protect how enterprise storage solutions are delivered as pricing volatility and supply constraints continue to impact global IT hardware markets.By combining fixed pricing with secured hardware allocations – enabled through strategic OEM partnerships – DataCore provides customers a level of cost predictability and delivery assurance that remains out of reach for much of the industry. A Hardware Market Defined by Volatility
Organizations are facing rapid shifts in pricing and availability across critical infrastructure components – including NAND, SSDs, and HDDs – as AI-driven demand and macroeconomic pressures continue to outpace supply. Memory prices have surged in recent cycles, enterprise storage costs have risen steadily, and drive availability is increasingly constrained with extended lead times becoming the norm. This convergence is disrupting hardware procurement cycles, introducing new risk into infrastructure planning, and turning a predictable process into a moving target. From Best-Effort to Predictable Outcomes
Through the “Buy with Confidence” program, DataCore is shifting infrastructure delivery from best-effort guidance to a more controlled and predictable model that reduces dependency on everchanging market conditions. Through long-standing OEM partnerships with leading suppliers and proactive cost and capacity planning, DataCore aligns infrastructure ahead of demand, stabilizing both pricing and delivery timelines. This includes:

• Pre-secured hardware availability through established OEM relationships
• Pricing locked in and unchanged from quote to delivery once hardware is reserved, eliminating unexpected cost increases
• Reserved and staged hardware to reduce deployment delays
• Predictable delivery timelines, even in constrained market conditions

Customer Impact: On Time. On Budget
For IT teams – from enterprises to SMBs – the impact is immediate: greater budget control, stronger confidence in project timelines, and reduced delivery risk to business-critical infrastructure initiatives. This advantage extends across DataCore’s storage and management portfolio, spanning block, file, and object storage, and supporting critical IT requirements including business continuity, cyber resilience, hyperconverged infrastructure, high-performance computing, long-term data retention, media workflows and more.

“The industry is increasingly asking customers to accept volatility as the new normal, but that’s not a standard we believe enterprises should have to operate under,” said Tom Cordiner, CRO, DataCore. “Organizations should not have to rethink or delay critical projects because hardware becomes unavailable or unaffordable. With our ‘Buy with Confidence’ program, pricing and timelines stay consistent, giving customers the confidence to plan and execute without disruption.”

Confidence Across the Channel
DataCore’s partners highlight the impact on execution, planning, and customer confidence:

“Our customers are navigating both pricing volatility and supply constraints at the same time, which is creating real challenges across the channel,” said Chris Gross, CTO, Sanity Solutions. “DataCore’s ability to secure infrastructure in advance and provide pricing stability gives partners and customers a level of confidence that is increasingly difficult to find in the current market.”

“Our customers value clarity and commitment when it comes to infrastructure investments,” said Thomas Bargfrede, MD, Capricorn Consulting GmbH. “With DataCore, pricing remains exactly as agreed and delivery timelines are dependable, allowing us to move forward with certainty and keep projects firmly on track.”

In an environment defined by uncertainty, predictability becomes a critical advantage.
