Devices as a service
Manage the costs and scalability of your IT environment without investment pressures. Device as a service brings predictability and flexibility to your entire fleet management.
Release capital and simplify IT – get devices as a service
Shift from ownership to a service model and gain better control over the costs, scalability, and sustainability of your IT environment. Device as a service brings predictability without investment pressures or balance sheet burden.
The solution supports your organization’s goals: cost transparency, smoother daily operations, and the ability to react quickly to changes – without device management putting an excessive strain on your resources.
You can standardize your environment on PCs or Macs – or manage both centrally as a unified whole.

Getting devices as a service turns computers from a fixed cost into a flexible one that scales with your organization’s actual needs. You only pay for the devices in use, avoiding unnecessary procurements and storage.
The solution scales smoothly across environments of all sizes – whether you manage dozens or thousands of workstations – and also supports demanding delivery and logistics models.

- No excess device procurements or idle inventory
- Device fleet remains optimized for actual utilization
