When Alvaro Foresti became CEO of ZoCom in 2021, he quickly saw how much time and energy IT equipment was consuming. Purchases were made on the fly, budgets were hard to control, and employees were often stuck with hardware they didn’t like. By moving IT lifecycle management to Velory, ZoCom transformed its IT operations from ad hoc and chaotic to structured and predictable - freeing time, boosting morale, and giving employees the hardware they actually wanted.
The Challenge: From chaos to clarity
As a growing consultancy, ZoCom’s IT setup had become a drain on both time and morale. Equipment tracking was unreliable, with spreadsheets mixing up company and personal devices. This made recovering laptops difficult and left management without a clear overview of assets.
Employees stuck with the wrong tools
For employees, the impact was immediate. Many were working on machines that didn’t suit their needs, lowering satisfaction and productivity. New hires sometimes had to wait for equipment, delaying their ability to start projects.
Ad-hoc spending made costs unpredictable
Financially, the approach wasn’t sustainable either. Hardware purchases were ad hoc and often paid with credit cards, making IT spend unpredictable and difficult to budget. Attempts to limit costs sometimes backfired, leaving employees with underpowered machines that created hidden inefficiencies.
“It was total chaos. We bought things as needed without knowing who was using what.”
- Alvaro Foresti, CEO, ZoCom
The Solution: One platform to streamline IT and empower employees
ZoCom decided to centralize IT hardware management in Velory. The team imported all existing devices - from laptops to meeting room equipment - into the platform, creating one complete and reliable inventory. From that point forward, every new device purchased through Velory was automatically tracked, eliminating the risk of lost assets.
From one-size-fits-all to real choice
Employees gained something they hadn’t had before: real choice. By categorizing staff into role-based groups, ZoCom could offer curated bundles tailored to developers, designers, or consultants. Instead of one-size-fits-all hardware, employees could now select the right machine for their work.
New hires ready from day one
Onboarding also improved dramatically. With Velory, new hires could order their gear before their first day, ensuring they had everything ready to start projects on time.
From credit card chaos to cost control
Financial control was another key win. Instead of unpredictable one-off purchases, ZoCom entered a leasing agreement via Velory. Monthly costs became predictable, buyouts and renewals were automated, and leadership finally had a clear view of IT spend.
“Leasing through Velory was much easier. The support team guided me through the entire process, reducing my worries.”
- Alvaro Foresti, CEO, ZoCom
The Result: A leaner IT operation and happier employees
The shift to Velory quickly changed the way ZoCom managed IT. What had once been firefighting - chasing spreadsheets, scrambling for hardware, and struggling with unpredictable costs - turned into a structured process the whole company could rely on. The IT team freed up valuable time, leadership gained clarity, and employees finally had the right tools to succeed.
- 20+ hours/month saved by eliminating manual tracking - time that could be reinvested in more strategic work.

- 100% employee satisfaction with work hardware, thanks to real choice and tailored bundles.
