Introducing Device as a Service

At the same time, organisations are adapting to new ways of working on a temporary basis. That includes investing in new equipment to help employees maintain productivity from home, which can be costly.

This large-scale investment can be difficult. Firstly, the outlay at such short notice can be a barrier. Secondly, can you justify that investment when things could change in a matter of weeks?

That’s where Aura’s new Device as a Service offering comes into play…

Powered by Poly, we’re helping organisations mitigate the cost of new hardware – including headsets, phones and video conferencing kit – by offering it on a subscription basis with global reach. Device as a Service allows you to respond to rapidly changing business requirements without the need for significant up-front investments.

With Aura’s support, organisations are better placed to conserve cash, which has become increasingly important in these unprecedented times. It also means more of your assets will be accounted for on your off-balance sheet, reducing financial liability for your company.

Device as a Service also makes it easier to future-proof your technology investments. Rather than being tied to dated hardware to justify investments, you can update and replace equipment in a disciplined manner – as and when required.

Most importantly, users can connect laptops to any platform via USB Device Mode, so you can maintain full productivity on critical applications and software.

Like all of our Transformation solutions, Device as a Service has been designed to take the hassle out of digital transformation. With that comes a range of service features that make life easier for your organisation.

·        Defer payments

With Device as a Service, you can defer payments, so you always have the technology you need, when you need it. Whether it’s remote working laptops or the latest hardware in your office, you can always stay ahead of the curve.

·        Cancel and return equipment

Business requirements have never been so dynamic, with office conditions forever changing and technology still advancing rapidly. Thankfully, you can protect yourself from that change with the flexibility to cancel and return equipment whenever you need to.

·        Minimize budget impacts

Getting the latest equipment is all well and good. But what about the impact on your budget? With our subscription-based model, you’ll only every pay for what you need, when you need it – without throwing your accounts off course.

·        Maximize productivity

Our one-stop hardware offering and global reach means your employees will never have to wait for the solutions they need. Put simply, you can maximize their productivity without delays and downtime, today and long into the future.

·        Managed by Aura

Best of all, the whole service is managed by Aura, so you get the same value-add that’s available with all of our services. One provider, contract and point of contact for your hardware needs, plus complementary services like Aura Insight to monitor your devices.
