Build for the future with DaaS for Windows 10 Pro Devices

The way technology is sold, purchased and consumed is evolving. Gone are the traditional ways of selling and growing revenues, today it is all about flexibility and consumption-based business models. For MSPs to remain competitive, making this transition is business critical.

According to Reportlinker, the Global Device-as-a-Service (DaaS) market is expected to reach $311.5 billion by 2027, up 35.5 percent Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) and its many benefits are growing.

DaaS is an innovative consumption model that cost-effectively manages IT hardware devices by bundling them with software, value-added services plus lifecycle management for a predictable monthly fee.
