Mac versus PC is a common debate in businesses across the country.
We say debate, but it’s usually the Apple goods that come out on top and for good reason.
What you get up to on your personal laptop or computer is your business. For work purposes, it’s always a good sign when the business is able to provide you with the tools needed to crush it.
This is where the rent versus buy tech question enters the fray. It’s nice to kit everyone out with a brand spanking new MacBook Pro (that new M1 chip is a beast), but that means a large capital expense upfront.
Digicape, South Africa’s largest independent Apple retailer, offers a great way to upgrade your business without the massive upfront cost.
Here’s why renting your equipment versus buying it makes sense.
The Competitive Advantage
Keeping up to date with the latest technology is imperative for your business to stay competitive, but it can also be expensive. The benefit should be in using the latest devices, not owning them.
Flexible & Scalable
Your business needs can change very quickly, from new staff to a short-term project or even a global pandemic. Renting provides you with the flexibility to easily scale up or scale down, giving your business access to the devices they need when they need them.
Affordable Tech
Since there is no large up-front capital expenditure investment, renting enables you to stretch your current budget a lot further – up to 250% further. With affordable fixed monthly payments over 12 to 36 months, payments are structured to be budget, and cash flow friendly.
Essentially, you can rent what you need for as long as you need it.
If you’re going MacBook Pro (longer battery life, quicker performance, crystal clear display, and yes, that M1 chip again) Digicape’s rental offers are as follows:
At the end of your rental period, you can simply upgrade to another of the latest machines.

Don’t go PC. You’re better than that.
