DEVICE AS A SERVICE

For organizations struggling to stay competitive in their industry, conducting business in the post-financial crisis world often means a higher cost of capital and deeper constraints on liquidity. Typically, organizations are required to incur huge, upfront capital expenditures when refreshing their devices. Many organizations today simply do not have additional capital to spend on non- revenue driving activities which forces them to delay device updates at the cost of productivity. The DaaS model allows organizations to shift large IT budget allocations to more manageable cash flows over a planned period of time. It also presents a lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) figure to decision makers and allows them to make more strategic decisions regarding the organization’s future investments.

As a subscription service, DaaS provides options for an organization to quickly scale up or down based on the current operating environment and business need. Whether growing or downsizing, organizations can pay for exactly what they need, when they need it. Organizations will no longer be stuck with obsolete hardware, especially as technological innovation continues to outpace the average life span of devices. This means avoiding accelerated depreciation schedules and financial losses related to poor liquidation values at the end of a device’s life.
