Technology investment is just one of many priorities competing for your budget. So why not free-up your valuable cash? Bundle your entire IT solution: hardware, software, services and subscriptions, including third-party. All with monthly, true interest-free payments.
With the option to add more solutions as your business grows, you have the flexibility to stay ahead of industry trends. But buying the right technology is only half the battle. You need to know that the technology supporting your business is working effectively every day. When the unexpected happens, who do you turn to for help? With the right support and advice, you can have the confidence that you won’t be held-back by downtime.
Financing any IT investment is always a balancing act. We can help you to fund your next project, minimise upfront costs and deliver the benefits you want. We’ll also help you build in the flexibility to scale or update outside of planned refresh cycles. Because who knows what the future holds?
You could purchase your new IT solution outright and pay in cash. However, a technology investment is likely to be one of many strategic investment priorities competing for your budget. In addition, equipment starts to depreciate and age as soon as it’s purchased, requiring ongoing maintenance and upkeep.
Alternatively, you could take a bank loan or similar financing options, but you will pay a higher interest rate that will inflate the actual cost. Plus, you won’t have the option to upgrade or refresh the technology. Instead, there is an increasing trend of companies leasing IT solutions. According to a recent study by the Equipment Leasing and Finance Association, 8 out of 10 business now finance their IT equipment. Leasing delivers an almost cost-neutral technology refresh capability, but more importantly avoids technology obsolescence.
When assessing financing options, organisations say the most important factors are:
1. Reducing total cost of ownership (32%) 2. Flexibility to manage budgets (16%) 3. Accelerated technology adoption (15%)
