Renting Computers and Other Hardware For a One Day Conference Or For a Training Activity
Sometimes buying computers and computer accessories is not the best option. The best option at times is renting computers. Renting will be economical than buying if technical devices are needed for a short period of time. A short period of time can be two days or even one week. It does not make sense to buy an expensive device and use it for only one week. A computer school that has organized a one week training session in a far place not its place of business will opt to rent rather than to buy. A rental agreement will stipulate in clear terms all after sales services to be offered and all rights and privileges under the contract.
Different enterprises have different after sales services. Some may offer proper packaging as the only after sales service while some will offer technical support as the only after sales service. Such support will be very important especially if technical devices hired are very complex and very technical in nature.
Technical support will make the installation activity to take very few minutes therefore the conference to begin on time. If a company hosting a conference does not have technical experts, the installation activity will take a lot of time and this may cause the conference to start late. A good rental enterprise will send an experienced technician to their client to deal with all technical issues.
Before giving computers to a client, the company technicians will make sure such devices have basic soft wares. The most basic soft ware a computer should have is the operating system. Without an operating system, a computer will not function. There are different types of operating systems. Some systems are used to run basic applications while some are used to run complex applications.
The agreement between computer hiring company and client stipulates the different client rights. One has the right to be given good service. Being given highly functional machines is not a privilege but it is a basic right. Machines to be used for a temporary computer training session must be very functional. With such a machine, it will be easy for students to code and to draft documents.
Coding is allowed in rented devices. However, such coding should not breach security measures put in place and should not be criminal in nature. All developed programs should be saved to hard disk. Drafted documents should also be saved.
Sensitive data should not be stored in rented machines. This data should instead be stored in a private flash disk or a private external hard disk. All stored documents and programs will have to be transferred to external storage devices before rented CPU s are returned. Once the company receives the CPU s, they will be formatted immediately. Formatting will erase all saved data. The changes caused by formatting cannot be reversed.
Renting computers can at times be cost effective than buying. Different rental enterprises have different after sales services. One of the after sales services offered by most enterprises is IT support. With such support, event organizers will not have to worry about troubleshooting problems.
