If you\u2019re a data center manager, the tension between maximizing data center efficiency and staying within your data center budget is constant. One of the goals is to focus on CapEx expenditures that deliver clear ROI.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many CapEx investments don\u2019t give immediate returns. However, our customers tell us that one investment that has delivered both immediate and ongoing long-term returns is a ServerLIFT\u00ae<\/sup> data center lift.<\/span><\/p>\n

How? By reducing the amount and cost of labor associated with server rack maintenance and service. ServerLIFT\u00ae<\/sup> lifting solutions also enable a single tech to move heavy and expensive servers in a fraction of the time it would take to move them manually, even with multiple techs doing the job. This immediately increases efficiency (and obviously reduces the number of techs required to move a piece of equipment).<\/span><\/p>\n

Our customers also report a 100 percent accident-free data center record, post implementation. Unsafe practices and off-brand or \u201calternative\u201d lift devices are expensive, both in terms of dangers to important staff and replacement of damaged equipment. These are all tangible and preventative financial benefits.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s quite common for the need for a lift to be out of sync with the funds available. To help our customers with this problem, we have worked hard to give you options.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

April, September, and December are busy months at ServerLIFT\u00ae<\/sup> headquarters. That\u2019s because we\u2019re set up to cater to the needs of fiscal quarterly lift machine purchases and data center budget surpluses. Although we stay busy all year, we ramp up on everything from production to personnel to ensure you\u2019re not left hanging at these crucial times of the year. We think all of your suppliers and vendors should set their schedule to accommodate you and your budgets rather than the other way around.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Want to take good advantage of your quarterly or annual unused budget? Here are four reasons how a ServerLIFT\u00ae<\/sup> data center lift purchase can help.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Why Buy a ServerLIFT\u00ae<\/sup> with Your Budget Surplus?<\/span><\/h2>\n

#1: It\u2019s a One-Time Purchase<\/span><\/h3>\n

Purchasing a ServerLIFT\u00ae<\/sup> solution is a one-time investment that pays off for years to come. Functional add-ons\u2014specifically extended warranties, attachments, and service requests\u2014will ensure that you get full value out of your ServerLIFT\u00ae<\/sup> server-handling device.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0#2: Delivers a Net-Positive Impact on Future Budget<\/span><\/h3>\n

By purchasing a ServerLIFT\u00ae<\/sup> solution, every future quarterly budget is impacted by the potential for lower costs associated with the ability to quickly pull, service, and replace a piece of racked equipment using a single technician. This can increase server life and reduce downtime and server replacement costs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

#3: Makes Operations More Efficient<\/span><\/h3>\n

A properly designed data center lift increases operational efficiency and provides safety for your personnel and your expensive hardware investments. You will see that efficiency in quick daily moves and larger deployment projects that require fewer employees to do them.<\/span><\/p>\n

#4:\u00a0 Optimizes Your Data Center Budget ROI\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

ServerLIFT\u00ae<\/sup>-brand products give you a <\/span>great return on investment<\/span><\/a>. They reduce operational downtime and labor costs. It saves otherwise hidden costs, including expenses associated with\u00a0 workplace injuries from manually handling equipment and lost productivity because employees are out on sick leave.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Agile Budgeting\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Having leftover funds in your quarterly or annual budget can be a blessing and a curse because you need to make fast and wise data center purchasing decisions. The decision needs to support long-term data center planning while immediately minimizing data center costs.<\/span><\/p>\n
