Hardware-as-a-Service
Turn your IT hardware costs from a capital investment into an operational expense with Hardware-as-a-Service with Crown MS.
Can your business afford to replace essential IT hardware quick enough to maintain operations?
​
IT hardware for both office space and infrastructure are among the most expensive outlays a business must budget for. Our Hardware-as-a-Service is a complete solution for companies that do not want the capital outlay, cannot afford, or do not want to be saddled with rapidly depreciating assets.
Replace without the worry
Outdated or compromised hardware can leave your business exposed. With our Hardware-as-a-Service model, you eliminate the risks of using infected or aging devices by receiving regularly refreshed, security-ready equipment.
We remove the need for large capital investment. Instead, your organisation benefits from a predictable monthly cost that includes full access to the latest business-grade hardware — desktops, laptops, monitors, printers, and remote work devices.
If a device malfunctions or is compromised by malware or ransomware, we replace it quickly with a clean, pre-configured system. Hardware is refreshed before it becomes a risk to performance or security, so your team always works on supported, reliable technology.
Restore and Replace Critical Hardware Without Delay
When hardware is compromised by malware or ransomware, reusing it can introduce serious risk. Our Hardware-as-a-Service (HaaS) solution eliminates that uncertainty by providing fast, secure hardware replacement whenever it’s needed, helping your business recover quickly and confidently.
​
Maintaining outdated or compromised systems can drain productivity and expose your organisation to unnecessary vulnerabilities. For small and medium-sized businesses, the time and cost involved in replacing failed devices can disrupt operations and put business continuity at risk.
​
At Crown Managed Security, we provide ready-to-deploy desktops, laptops, and servers as part of a managed service agreement. Devices are fully configured, security-hardened, and delivered on demand, whether for day-to-day use or rapid replacement following a breach. Our service ensures your team can keep working without delay, even in high-pressure situations.
​
By shifting your hardware infrastructure to a managed model, you gain predictable costs, reduced risk, and built-in recovery capability, all without needing large capital investments or waiting on long procurement cycles.
Benefits of HaaS
-
Financing keeps your equipment up to date. Computers and other equipment eventually become obsolete. With financing, you pass the financial burden to the equipment financing company. For example, let’s say you have a two-year lease on a copy machine. After that lease expires, you are free to finance whatever equipment is newer, faster and cheaper. In fact, 65% of respondents to a 2005 Equipment Leasing Association survey said the ability to have the latest equipment was leasing’s number-one perceived benefit.
​
-
You’ll have predictable monthly expenses. With a lease, you have a pre-determined monthly line item, which can help you budget more effectively. 35% of respondents to the Equipment Leasing Association’s survey said this was leasing’s second-highest benefit.
​
-
No Up-Front Capital Expense. No full cost payment up front and lower total cost of ownership over the life of the solution. When investing in 3-5-year technology expenditures, why would you accrue those costs in one year, or worse - one payment!
​
-
End of Term Flexibility. At the end of the term, leasing gives you the option of simply returning the equipment, purchasing it outright at an agreed current market value or extending the contract, making it easier to cascade, upgrade or dispose of your equipment.
​
-
More flexible payment options. Different payment structures can be tailored to fit your specific needs. For example, periodic payments can be structured to increase, decrease or stay constant over time. Delayed pay dates also help to fit into fiscal cycles.
​
-
Faster implementation. Due to eliminating upfront capital requirements, you can implement hardware initiatives when you need the equipment/solution, instead of when your budget allows it.
​
-
Reduced risk. Financing an entire hardware solution allows you to mitigate the risk of technology budget surprises.
​
-
We own the asset. As Crown MS retains ownership of the hardware, you do not have to worry about rapidly depreciating assets on your balance sheet.
