Financing equipment and applications can preserve capital for revenue generating business activities. Equipment is a depreciating asset so it may be better to lease your communication solution. If the solution reduces monthly communication expenses (e.g. telephone), this can help pay for the lease.
Interest Rate – The interest rate charged will greatly impact the monthly cost.
Residual Value – Equipment depreciates in value and has an expected life cycle which both impacts the monthly price.
Application – The Finance Application should be simple to understand and not take a long time to complete.
Down Payment – Look for low, or no down payment options to further preserve capital.
Payment Flexibility – A delayed first payment option will allow the solution to begin working before the first payment is due.
Mixed Equipment – New and used equipment and solutions from different vendors may be combined into one lease. Check to see if this is an option.
Add-ons – Having the flexibility to add equipment or applications to the same lease at a later date can make future purchases easily implemented.
Quick Response – Once you decide on a communication solution, you should expect a quick response to your application. How long will the decision take?
Customer Service -The leasing company should have customer service personnel to assist with any problems.
End of Lease – No early termination fee allows you to pay off the lease early and pay less interest.
