The Benefits of Renting1. Renting offers you flexibility.You are only tied down to the equipment for as long as you choose in your rental agreement. This gives you the flexibility to change your equipment as technology changes, saving time and money by eliminating the hassle of purchasing and disposal. 2. Eliminate the threat of obsolete technology. Computer technology is changing at a rapid pace. Every four months a new processor is released, which means a year after you purchase a computer it is already outdated. If you rent your computer equipment, you'll have the option of getting the latest technology as often as you want without the cost and commitment of owning. 3. Renting is good for your company's cash flows. For companies, rental costs are often tax deductible. Also, by renting you won't spend your company's capital budget on equipment that you'll only use once. For longer term commitments, you can avoid the large capital outlays that can be a part of purchasing computer equipment. 4. Keep costs down on short term projects. Renting is ideal for short term projects when you know that you won't need the equipment after the project is finished. Once you're done just send it back to the rental company. There's no hassle of buying or selling back the equipment, which is often at a substantial loss. 5. Reduce technological hassles at tradeshows and conferences. Shipping your own equipment to and from tradeshows and conferences can be expensive and risky. Damage and loss often occur, costing your company precious time and money. Most rental companies will take care of everything, including shipping, packaging, setup, and testing, which gives you more time to focus on your presentation. |
