Russia risks running out of PCs, software and other IT gadgets due to the continued exodus of Western suppliers and the country’s steadily deteriorating economic situation.
According to the most recent data, published through local IT and IT distributor Marvel, PC sales in Russia during the first six months of 2022 amounted to 1. 18 million devices, down 20. 3% from the previous year. Of these, product sales from U. S. suppliers HP and Dell, classic market leaders, experienced the biggest drop.
“Sales of PCs, software and other similar hardware in Russia in the current year-on-year quarter fell 42. 5% year-on-year,” a Marvel spokesperson said. They were at the same point as last year. “
HP PC sales fell 49% compared to the same era in 2021, with around 80,000 HP PCs sold in total. market.
Dell representatives showed it had closed its offices and ceased all Russian operations in mid-August.
A spokesman for the U. S. company said: “In February, we made a resolution not to sell, hold or products in Russia, Belarus and the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine, in addition to Crimea which is already under embargo. “
Meanwhile, in the face of the decreasing presence of foreigners in the Russian market, the sales of domestic companies are increasing. For example, local company Aquarius, a Russian manufacturer and developer of PC hardware, increased its sales by 12% for the reference era to 61,000 devices, with up to 5% of the market.
Other prominent local players come with DNS/DEXP and Depo. But, according to analysts, since all these brands use almost entirely foreign parts in their production, it is difficult to call them Russian.
Analysts also said that there is a developing trend of interest from major customers in buying portions of PCs with the upcoming self-assembly. This can simply be explained by local customers’ preference for saving money, as their buying force has shrunk dramatically in recent months.
In the midst of a turbulent economic scenario in the country, PC users try to use their devices for as long as possible and only buy a new one when the old one becomes absolutely unusable. The increased demand is seen lately for video cards. , RAM, hard drives, PC chassis, and processors.
PC sales may have been even lower, but the commercial segment of the market has seen growth, basically due to its active shift to PC technologies and home computing equipment.
According to analysts of the Russian business daily Vedomosti, there are no signs of improvement in the fourth quarter, which is also due to the deficient client portfolio in Russia.
The decrease in sales and the market is also due to the large migration of Russian IT experts, the main users of this device, out of the country after the mobilization announced in Russia. Most Russian IT experts expect to be drafted into the military, despite their recent completion in Russia and promises through the government and the Ministry of Defense to postpone military service.
Analysts expect an imaginable return and a partial resumption of work through other U. S. computer and software companies. Given the cancellation of some of the restrictions imposed by the US Treasury, the US Treasury will not be able to do so. The U. S. Department of Defense reported on the source of computer and device generation to Russia on April 8. In particular, the Department of legal exports and sales to the Russian Federation (directly or through other countries) of software, services, apparatus or mandatory generation for the exchange of data via the Internet.
