As businesses grow, their needs can change. One year a multi-function printer/fax is sufficient, the next you may need a standalone printer, photocopier and wireless network, so keeping up to date with a computer rental may save you time and money.
Cash flow is king
Computer rental is about cash flow improvement., you don’t have that big investment going out at one time.
and computer rental also enables you to keep up with the latest technology. You’re not looking at a significant investment every time you need to upgrade your equipment.
Afford more
If equipment costs less, logically you can afford more of it.
A growing business may need a network printer for each department, rather than one for the entire organisation. Instead of borrowing money or waiting for the financial stars to align, renting additional printers puts them in the office immediately.
Further, renting leaves cash free and lines of credit open for other business expenses.
Project specific
Take the example of an architecture firm contracted to produce the working drawings for a new office building, with additional staff employed casually to help meet the tight deadline.
Buying new desktop computers and software for each new staff member, who is only to be employed for three months, would cost thousands of dollars.
Renting the equipment:
1. prevents a surplus of computing equipment sitting unused once the project is finished
2. means short-term, fixed-price equipment supply can be factored into project costs
3. means tax deductions for rental fees.
4. protects the business from a short-term cost shock.
In the rapidly evolving world of business, reacting swiftly to change can be the key to boosting income or going broke. While buying your office technology gives you certainty and builds your asset base, there are times when computer rental may be a smarter move.
