A leasing agreement has its pros and cons. On the one hand, a company can free up capital through a device leasing agreement, but it loses flexibility when the leasing company sets the terms. In these situations, it is important to understand the company's advantages in managing the lifecycle of its devices.

What you should pay attention to when making a leasing agreement

  • Make sure the agreement is flexible and allows up to 5 years of use of the leasing devices. So, don't accept strict 3- or 4-year periods without flexibility for extension periods.

  • Negotiate extension leases to make them sensible and cost-effective. Do not overpay under any circumstances. The monthly cost of the device should drop to at least a third of the monthly rent for the first extended period (in the SwanIT leasing model, it drops to 1/6 of the monthly rent).

  • Get a 5-year warranty from the start, as it is cheap when you buy the device.

How does SavannaX enable a flexible lifecycle model? 

  • SavannaX produces health data for devices to support lifecycle management decision-making.

  • There is no longer a need to look at the calendar for device replacement cycles. Instead, companies can monitor their devices in SavannaX and plan renewals based on their actual condition.

  • With the help of SavannaX data, you can plan device replacements flexibly and save on device replacement costs, as well as on device investments, since unnecessary mass replacements become a thing of the past.

Getting started with SavannaX takes only minutes, and you can access your device health data as early as the same day.
