Network infrastructure and data equipment change so quickly it can become bewildering even to industry professionals who sell, configure, install, and service these types of technology solutions.
As an organization that plans to implement some sort of data equipment solution, be careful of the historic mindset of evaluating whether an "investment" in that technology equipment meets certain typical ROI, TCO, or BE cost analysis. With technology changing at a faster pace than it ever has before, do these "ownership" models of evaluation still make sense if the equipment you acquire will continue to be replaced and upgraded more and more frequently for the foreseeable future? A more significant question to consider should be, "Is it more important for your organization to own the technology solution or just use it while it is useful?".
Once you determine whether ownership or use is the ultimate goal, you can begin to determine the most cost effective acquisition option to accomplish that goal. And, TAMCO has traditional leasing options that are more cost effective than a cash purchase for those organizations that do want to chance ownership, as well as innovative financing alternatives such as Shield for those organizations that simply want to use the technology via an OPEX payment with additional flexibility and protection.
Some of the various network and data equipment solutions that TAMCO finances include:
