DEAC proposes server hire as an alternative to leasing

DEAC proposes server hire as an alternative to leasing
05.03.2009

”At a time when it becomes increasingly difficult or even impossible for companies to obtain credits in banks for the development of their businesses DEAC proposes an alternative solution – IT resources for hire. This solution will help many companies to avoid cutting down on their activities or winding up their businesses”, Andris Gailītis, the CEO of DEAC, is convinced.

”Forced by the rapid technological developments, companies whose activities virtually depend on information technologies, simply have to upgrade their IT infrastructure, while banks in the current economical situation have lost stability and often refuse to lend money. Rental IT resources will provide essential support to such companies and will allow them to continue their activities”, A. Gailītis is sure.

”If a company acquires a suitable server on lease, after a while it very often turns out that the server is already morally and technically outdated, but the company still has to continue the lease payments and furthermore to invest in server modernisation. Server hire allows to avoid such situations and companies do not need to enter into long-term commitments with banks or leasing companies", A. Gailītis explains.

”In the current economical situation when every company strives to use its resources in the most efficient way possible, service outsourcing, including server hire, allows companies to focus on the more important issues - first and foremost on ensuring their main business. It not only helps companies to save money, but time and other resources as well, which otherwise would be spent trying to ensure functions that have little to do with their main business”, A. Gailītis describes the benefits of service outsourcing.

”During the last months we have put a lot of effort in order to be able to offer more cost-saving services to our customers. We have developed successful co-operation with DELL, one of the leading producers of IT solutions in the world, and become the biggest rental server company in Latvia, which allows us to offer more advantageous server hire conditions to our customers”, A. Gailītis continues.

”We are able to offer more affordable services to our customers also thanks to the IT system consolidation solutions which allow us to optimise customer IT resources, while also reducing infrastructure maintenance costs", A. Gailītis continues.

”Currently we are able to offer certain rental server configurations for a price which, even including servicing expenses, is only marginally above 150 euros per month.
As regards optimisation of IT resources, my experience shows that depending on its size a company can save up to 40% of its original IT budget”, A. Gailītis notes.
