Hardware rental for remote employees makes sense when workstations need to be set up on a temporary, short-term, or project-based basis. Companies can provide home office hardware as needed without having to maintain a permanent inventory of devices. This is suitable, for example, for new employees, external project staff, seasonal teams, or temporary remote work models. Compared to rigid DaaS IT models, IT rentals can be flexibly adapted to the number of units, rental duration, performance, and required equipment.

Rented IT equipment is suitable for regular work-from-home setups, decentralized project teams, onboarding new employees, and temporary assignments. Depending on the task, laptops, desktop computers, smartphones, or company-issued tablets can be provided. Typical uses range from video conferencing and office software to software testing or more performance-intensive specialized applications. International companies can also equip employees with the appropriate IT equipment for projects in Germany.

The right choice depends on the tasks, software, work location, and desired level of mobility. Laptops are often the best option for flexible workstations, while desktop computers or workstations are ideal for stationary and performance-intensive applications. Company cell phones and tablets round out the equipment needed for communication, presentations, or mobile workflows. Factors such as processor performance, RAM, screen size, ports, and accessories are taken into account during the selection process. This allows the IT workstation to be configured to meet specific needs.

Depending on availability, both individual company devices and larger quantities for teams, departments, or rollouts can be rented. This allows IT equipment for new employees to be expanded gradually or scaled for a time-limited project. The quantity, device types, and configuration are tailored to the respective roles. For larger quantities or extensive pre-configuration, deployment is planned on a case-by-case basis to ensure that workstation devices are as uniform as possible and ready for use.

Work-from-home hardware can be rented for as little as one day, as well as for several weeks or longer project periods. The flexible rental period is ideal, for example, for short-term onboarding, temporary replacements, external specialists, or temporary remote projects. In many cases, an extension is possible, provided the equipment is available. The specific rental price depends on factors such as the type of equipment, quantity, rental period, accessories, and desired additional services, and will be detailed in a customized quote.

To ensure that remote employees can get to work quickly, devices can be set up specifically for each project. This may include, for example, installing apps, setting up user accounts and configurations, and adding SIM cards, routers, headphones, mounts, or other appropriate accessories. The desired preconfiguration is agreed upon in advance and depends on the device type, intended use, and internal guidelines. For sensitive project data, certified data erasure can also be requested after the device is returned.
