5 Reasons To Rent Your IT Equipment

In nearly every professional sector, financing equipment through rental is gaining ground. And IT equipment is no exception.

Why? This solution has economic, practical, and ecological benefits. Here are five advantages of renting IT equipment.

WHY RENTING IS ECONOMICALLY BENEFICIAL

First and foremost, renting your computer hardware ensures that you pay a fair price for your products based on your actual usage of them. When your products are no longer useful to you or are no longer in satisfactory condition, you can return them at the end of your contract. This spares you the risk of financing them unnecessarily, as would be the case if you had bought them only to have to throw them away or put them into storage after a few months.

HOW RENTING GIVES YOU THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT AT THE RIGHT TIME

It’s essential to invest in new technology to maintain your company’s competitiveness and commercial dynamism. This is particularly true for computer hardware, as computers become outdated after just a few years. Therefore, renting allows you to renew your IT equipment while controlling your budget regularly. This can be a great option if you only need this technology short term or on an ad-hoc basis, say for an event or project. Through renting, you will access the latest products without exceeding your budget to acquire them. In fact, you will only need to pay a fixed rental payment.

RENTING GIVES YOU VISIBILITY OVER YOUR BUDGET

There’s no risk of unpleasant surprise expenses: rental costs are fixed and stable, distributed over the precise duration of your rent, specified now the contract is signed for your IT equipment.  On the other hand, if you buy technological devices, you can face high unexpected costs when a product becomes obsolete, and you must replace it.

WHY RENTING IS PRACTICAL

Another advantage of renting rather than purchasing computer equipment is that your employees are relieved of numerous mundane, time-consuming tasks. The financial establishment or loaning entity that you use can make an offer to externalize the operational and administrative management of your IT equipment.  In other words, they will take care of installing computers and software, configuring equipment, and performing technical maintenance. Practical!

RENTING IS ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

Renting your computer hardware is more environmentally responsible than buying it. This is true for several reasons. For one, by renting your equipment, as previously mentioned, you will always have access to the most recent hardware and, therefore, the most energy efficient. But that’s not all: the products that you return at the end of your contract are reintroduced into the economic cycle by either being rented again as used material or recycled in accordance with national standards. Your ecological footprint is, therefore, smaller than if you purchased your equipment.
