Rental
Are you a IT manager with a project that will last less than a year or just a couple of months? You may want to consider a short-term rental of IT hardware instead of a purchase or a lease. What are the benefits of renting Cisco equipment over a lease you ask? The biggest benefit of renting hardware, compared to leasing hardware is the period of use. In terms of time, a rental period is for the use of equipment for 1-year or less and a Lease is anything longer than a year. Unlike a Purchase, the other benefit from renting hardware and Leasing comes from using the equipment not from ownership, no depression of value.
