Pourquoi envisager la location de technologies pour les écoles ?

"The unfortunate fact is that public education is poorly funded. Because of this, greater ingenuity is necessary to achieve our goals, so creativity and resourcefulness are very important to us. Without folks like IFS we would be handing people calculators rather than computers. At the end of the day it’s about the people, the business model and the ability to deliver quickly and efficiently that matter most. We are in very good hands with Insight. Their team is top notch and their approach supports our unique needs. They are excellent to work with, always on the spot, and quick to get things done."

"Rolling out the new laptop and desktop equipment across the college set everyone on a great path with uninterrupted productivity. IFS was instrumental in making that happen and since then, they have stayed by our side to help us with additional needs along the way. Now we’re at the point of another refresh, and IFS’ flexibility and approach is making it possible to buy out some of the devices that still have useful life while we return and upgrade others. Their service has been outstanding, and we appreciate their partnership."

"We needed a full refresh of our desktop fleet and this required more flexibility and ingenuity. Insight worked with us in depth to come up with a solution that would allow us to realize our goals and lock them in."

"In our school district, our refresh plan was purchase until it dies. Buy and die. Now, we’ll be leasing all of our equipment, and our administrators, teachers and students understand that technology has changed so much in the last 10 years that in order to stay current with technology we have to have a better plan."

"Leasing allowed us to also accelerate the instructional plan. We are in a very challenging economic area…We were able to equalize the playing field very quickly with a deployment to everyone, not just some kids, not phasing it in over 6 or 7 years and missing an entire generation of kids. I don't know that I would have bought a Chromebook three years ago, because they weren't here. We were all iPads, all the time, a $700 device, that doesn't do much more in terms of the transaction between student, teacher and content than the Chromebook does. The opportunity for us to not be locked in to any one device forever is also an attraction to the lease. I know that in three years I am going to reevaluate what is the best tool, given our context."
