Panasonic's flexible lease and payment offerings will enable customers to respond to organizational requirements to contain costs, while maintaining their commitments to process improvements they identified as important before the economic downturn. Financing choices include 0 percent leasing for 36 months, step payments, flexible payments and deferral and lease-back programs - up to 60 months. The new finance options are being made available as part of the company's longstanding relationship with Panasonic Finance Solutions, provided by CoActiv Partners.
"Our customers rely on technology from Panasonic as an important strategic tool for their mission-critical mobile workforces. During tough economic times, customers need to know that they have the solutions and partners in place to be successful in the long run," said Rance Poehler, president, Panasonic Computer Solutions Company. "For our customers, reliable remote access to information is the difference between success and failure--and failure is not an option. Working closely with our partners at Panasonic Finance Solutions, and consulting with our channel partners and customers, we have developed these flexible new solutions to help organizations make the right technology decisions to achieve their missions today and be better positioned for the challenges of tomorrow."
"The value of rugged mobile devices for many field mobility applications is quite clear," said David Krebs, director, mobile & wireless practice, VDC Research Group. "Although hardware acquisition costs for standard mobile devices are generally lower than their rugged counterparts, ongoing maintenance, replacement and downtime costs associated with commercial-grade hardware solutions are almost universally higher. As a result, commercial-grade solutions can cost more to operate over the life of the deployment. In these economic conditions, it is more important than ever for companies to understand the total cost of ownership and return on investment when making technology purchase decisions. Financing options help make the case for putting the right technology in the hands of remote users."
David Gerrard, vice president, Panasonic Finance Solutions, said, "We are financially strong and have capital available for Panasonic customers to finance the mobile computing technology they need to continue to be successful. Channel partners and customers can count on our high quality, responsive service, training and sales support to help them make the right long-term decisions for their organizations."
