The Difference Between “Buy Vs Lease”

For a medical practice that needs state of the art technology, there is a lot to consider.

When selecting the Apple Hardware you want, you need to consider the pros of buying versus leasing. The cost-benefit of one of the options might outweigh the other.

Buying Apple Gear

A benefit of buying your Apple hardware is that you own the Apple gear. Buying is simple, pick out what you need and pay for it. Purchasing works great for small to midsize practices. Each decision regarding hardware buying or leasing should be made carefully to best fit your practice, ask our team for recommendations and we can walk you through a few options. We recommend also purchasing AppleCare with hardware you purchase.

Leasing Apple Gear

You can get updated technology quickly and easily, for example, if a new iPhone or iPad Pro comes out yearly it might be a good idea to lease them on a year lease for you and your staff. Getting Apple hardware on a recurring basis, allows you to remain competitive, leasing allows you to avoid being stuck with outdated hardware. Ever been to a medical practice with an old PC? It sets an impression on your patients.

A benefit is less expensive up-front costs with leasing, you can get the hardware you need with predictable payments if approved for leasing. Leasing is great for budgeting and creating a predictable capital expenditure, making it easy to budget for your hardware over a long period of time. Leasing offers many flexible options in terms of timing of the lease to also control monthly expense costs. With leasing, you might be covered with AppleCare as well.

We also at DrChrono lease our Apple gear because of the reasons above.

Time to remove that old hardware and always be up to date!
