The Benefits Of Subscription-Based Technology Financing

Why you Should Consider Software For Subscribers

As a growing portion of modern business is performed digitally, software financing has become one of the most critical monetary decisions a company can make. Traditionally, most firms choose to purchase software outright, affording them full control and enduring ownership. Yet with the growing pace of change in the software industry, many are now turning to software leasing instead. The subscription model provides a particularly effective method of leasing software, allowing you to:

Lock In Your Savings

Software providers have a strong incentive to lock down customers for long periods of time, meaning they will offer you significant discounts if you sign onto a multiyear subscription. These can range from 15 to 30 percent of the total price, substantially lowering the burden of technology financing. What’s more, when you sign a multiyear, you can secure a single price for the length of the contract. This ensures that periodic cost increases and other market changes will not sap your savings, providing the same affordable price for the long haul.

Simplify the Renewal Process

When it comes to software leasing, one of the greatest sources of added cost and hassle is the need to renew your lease whenever the current agreement expires. If you don’t renew it on time, you risk losing access to the software, interrupting workflows throughout your firm. Regaining access to software may also be more expensive if you miss the initial renewal period, as your provider might require you to give up past discounts or accept current market rates.

A multiyear subscription keeps all these hassles to a minimum. By limiting how frequently you need to renew your lease, it reduces the chances for mistake and gives you more time to prepare for the few renewals that are necessary. Your business can thus continue to operate smoothly and avoid high costs.

Supplement Your Service

Multiyear subscriptions often a variety of opportunities to enhance the quality of your service. These include the chance to bundle business software with other services and products, as well as priority access to maintenance and support. By linking together software and related products, you can streamline your entire office, adding convenience and efficiency to every operation.
