Whaleback Managed Services, a managed unified communications services provider, announced its “Roll In” equipment leasing program. Offered in conjunction with Clarkston Finance, the new program enables small and medium enterprises to bundle upfront telephone equipment costs into the monthly invoice for Whaleback’s CrystalBlue Unified Communications service.

Customers do not pay any upfront equipment costs, turning a capital equipment expense into an operating expense, a key need of customers to reduce capital costs. At the end of the lease term, customers are able to purchase the equipment for $1.

“One of the biggest challenges facing SMEs today is reducing capital expenditures. Companies no longer have to pay upfront capital equipment costs for telephone handsets when they migrate to unified communications as a service,” said Chris Daly, CEO at Whaleback Managed Services. “With our new ‘Roll In’ leasing program, we provide new customers with the option to amortize their equipment expense over the length of the contract. We simplify the entire process and remove the barrier to entry with one complete cost-effective solution.”
