What are the benefits in Purchasing or leasing your equipment or business software?

When it comes to acquiring new hardware for your business, finance is one of the key things you will have to consider. Typically, your options will be: buying outright, hire purchase or business leasing for your IT equipment and business software.

Advantages of leasing IT equipment

Lower upfront costs – Lower upfront costs and low initial investment are among the main benefits businesses consider leasing as the most viable method to procure the necessary equipment. Businesses can keep their valuable working capital within the business, as appose to buying.

Predictable monthly expenses – Switching to a leasing model for your IT equipment procurement offers predictable monthly charges. This is especially important to many businesses where unpredictable or seasonal operating conditions make it easier to plan and spread your costs over smaller monthly or quarterly payments vs a complete outright purchase.

Equipment upgrades – One of the main drawbacks to purchasing IT equipment is that most of it can quickly become outdated. When you lease IT equipment, you are also on the most current or up-to-date equipment available with upgrades at the end of your lease, making it easy to upgrade your equipment on a new lease or use your existing equipment.

Maintenance – When you buy your own equipment outright, you are responsible for the maintenance and servicing of that equipment. However, when you lease IT equipment, you avoid the maintenance and repair expenditures altogether.

Tax benefits – Your monthly leasing payments for your IT equipment are usually tax deductible, lowering your liability and costs on your business tax return.

Disadvantages of leasing IT equipment

Leasing may be worth considering as a business for your IT equipment procurement, especially if the IT equipment you intend to purchase dates quickly. Leasing over a long term for some businesses may not always be the most cost-effective option if your business desires to own the equipment. However, depending on the leasing provider, it may be possible to buy the IT equipment from the leasing company at the end of the leasing term with an agreed nominal sum.

Advantages of buying IT equipment

Equipment ownership – Owning the rights to the equipment is the main benefit of purchasing IT equipment outright. If equipment has a longer-term usable life and is not going to be obsolete in the short term, businesses may see owning the equipment as advantageous.

Tax deduction – The first year allows you to fully deduct the amount you have spent on new equipment from your business tax return.

Warranty – If your IT equipment fails, your company will utilise the equipment warranty for a repair or replacement. However, you will need to devote time within the business to liaise with the manufacturer and send the equipment for repair/replacement.

Disadvantages of buying IT equipment

Higher upfront costs – How much spare capital does your business have? IT equipment can be expensive and as such, the initial upfront investment required does steer companies in another direction, either borrowing money via a business loan which can also be an expensive way to procure needed equipment.

Outdated equipment – Owning your business IT equipment might be a benefit, but it can also be expensive. If you invest in high-cost equipment today, there is a high probability the technology will become obsolete within a very short timeframe. Intern, this means you are forced to reinvest more capital sooner to stay up-to-date.

Benefit from professional IT & software procurement, rollout & training

Sourcing new IT equipment or software can be time-consuming and frustrating for any business. It can be extremely challenging to ensure that your IT hardware, infrastructure, and software investment will fit your intended brief and provide your business with excellent value for money.
