More computer leasing myths, debunked
The objections we hear most often — and what actually happens with a HardSoft lease.
Myth
“It’s too expensive”
“Paying monthly means spending more in the long term, without gaining much at the end.”
Fact
Leasing can support cashflow
HardSoft’s solutions are cost-neutral, tax-efficient and built around predictable monthly payments. The price can also include the support your business needs.
Myth
“Insurance will add unexpected costs.”
“Insurance within a lease agreement is always so expensive and I won’t know what I’m going to have to pay.”
Fact
Protection is optional and transparent
SafeGuard Protection is optional. We’re upfront about the price, so you can decide whether the cover is right for your business without being surprised later.
Myth
“I’ll be stuck with outdated devices.”
“Leasing doesn’t give me the options to change my equipment without financial penalties, leaving me tied to outdated tech.”
Fact
Your devices can change with your needs
Give your team the technology it needs as the business changes. Switch, continue or cancel in line with your agreement, rather than holding on to equipment that is no longer right for the job.
Myth
“Leasing has hidden fees”
“There’s always a setup fee and often surprise admin costs. These add a lot of uncertainty for my business.”
Fact
There are no setup fees or surprise admin costs
When comparing computer leasing companies, look for clarity about who provides the finance and what is included. HardSoft is the leasing company — not a middleman — and does not add setup fees or unexpected costs.
Myth
“A lease is non-cancellable.”
“It’s very difficult to leave a leasing contract, so I’ll eventually be stuck with a solution that is no longer fit for purpose.”
Fact
HardSoft builds flexibility into every
lease
You can cancel your agreement after 24 months. You can switch, add or return equipment after 12 months, giving your business room to respond when its requirements change.
Myth
“There’s no support after delivery.”
“Once I receive my hardware, there’s no one to talk to for support or other issues. I’ll end up paying more for third parties.”
Fact
Expert support continues through the lease
Our solutions engineers help you choose the right technology at the start and support your devices throughout the lease, reducing the need to bring in separate third parties for every issue.
