Update on schedule

Like most enterprises, you probably have IT equipment in your data centers that you are holding on to for longer than you would like—servers, storage and networking gear that no longer meets the current and future needs of your business. Your aging servers and storage may cause you to miss significant improvements in performance and service delivery, greater efficiencies in energy and space consumption, and improvements that reduce administrative requirements. Whether you are dealing with long depreciation cycles or trying to squeeze too many priorities into your budget, delayed IT acquisitions can mean delayed benefits for your business. Meanwhile, the costs of maintaining your aging IT assets and risks of a failure grow, adding to your concerns and budget challenges.


Purchasing new IT and upgrading it in three or four years can be financially daunting for most organizations. Typically, such purchases must be depreciated over a period of five to seven years. Upgrading sooner can lead to budget penalties and is usually discouraged by your Finance organization. There is a better way to acquire and pay for the IT infrastructure you need that won’t lock you in and will allow you to keep up with the pace of change, providing you access to the best IT for your business and delivering the right financial outcomes to match.
