Workstation Rentals

For many corporate clients, workstation rentals are an excellent way to bring in technology for a short term project or to fill a temporary need in capacity.  While the price/performance ratio of computer hardware doubles every 18 months or so (see Moore's Law), the acquisition cost of the hardware is only part of the total cost of ownership.  Depending upon your needs, workstation rentals may be a more attractive alternative to outright buying or leasing a workstation.

What does your accounting department say?

When you acquire computer hardware, it is usually depreciated over a 36 month period.  And most of us have seen that at the end of three years, that old trusty computer may not be able to keep up with new operating systems and applications.  For some two to six month projects, it may not make sense to acquire the necessary hardware and software assets only to try and dispose of them after the project is through.  This is where renting a workstation is more appropriate.

Speed and Flexibility

Workstation rentals can also be an interim solution when you need to be up and running now as opposed to be waiting for your hardware to ship and your software to be installed.  If an opportunity arises and you need preconfigured computers with specific software,  a company like Best Computer Rentals can provide the capability until your own IT assets are in place.

Make sure you get the right technical support

When you're renting a workstation, ask if the company is truly brick and mortar or are they just a broker with a phone.  Best Computer Rentals has certified technology professionals on its staff that can help you define and solve your issues.  We can deliver the right hardware and software configurations, take your technical requirements and image systems to fit your needs.  We can provide the monitors, printers, even the infrastructure itself.  And when the project or uptick is over, we'll come and get the equipment so that your physical space is freed up.  Ask us how workstation rentals may make sense for you.
