Work starts with people. Have the computer ready.
When the team grows or a project needs more powerful equipment, you have to think about devices, setup and budget at the same time. With a Maxa operating lease you pay monthly payments for using the devices. You choose the devices, the seller and the term, based on the planned period of use.
When is an equipment decision worth thinking through?
A new person joins the team
Before buying, write down everything the workstation needs: computer, screen, docking station and work phone. Check device compatibility with the seller and agree delivery and setup. That way you can prepare for the first working day.
A project needs a more powerful workstation
Design, video editing or data work may need a different computer than before. Start from the requirements of the software you use. Decide with the team who needs a new device and for whom the existing computer is fine.
The computer fleet has grown one device at a time
Put the age, warranty and software support status of the devices in one list. Based on it, you can decide what to replace first and in which order to hand over the new devices to the team.

What work does the computer need to do?
Compare devices by real work tasks. Ask the seller to check the compatibility of software, connections and peripherals before you confirm the order for the whole team.
How long will this set suit you?
Consider performance, warranty and software support. Compare buying and leasing on the basis of the same device set and the same planned period of use.

Maxa does not arrange this. You agree the setup and the scope of IT support with the seller or your own IT partner. Ask the seller to state clearly in the quote which services are included in the price. The Maxa operating lease quote describes the terms of using the devices.
What happens to the devices at the end of the term?
Under the agreement you can return the devices or buy them out. If you need new equipment, you can ask the seller for a new quote and compare the options for the next term.
