What is the PC/Device as a Service model? 

PC/DaaS is a paid subscription model where businesses can lease hardware and get IT support for a monthly fee. It means companies can minimise the upfront capital expenditure of investing in devices and instead, maximise budget allocation.

  • Provides predictable monthly operating expenses, which can improve cash flow and make budgeting easier versus a large upfront capital investment.
  • Provides businesses with access to the latest technology, as devices are regularly updated and replaced.
  • Allows businesses to scale and quickly adjust their device count based on changing needs.
