How much budget should one spend on computers?

Budget computer equipment

One of the issues that should be viewed very cautiously is the company 's budget we are going to spend on equipment. Computers are a fundamental tool for the operation of any company. Although it is a business where products are sold, at least they need some TPV systems or a computer in which to take the administration.
All boss or entrepreneur sure you already have a laptop or desktop computer at home , but about having teams for employees in the office. How much should we spend? Is it necessary to make a very large outlay?

Budget expenses on computers

It is important to understand that when we talk about buying computers we refer to buy hardware. But hardware is not the only thing we're going to need in our business. Many others are tools that must also enter the budget: specific programs licensed storage space in the cloud, software POS , etc.
Given this, the question is usually at the beginning each buy mac and toil away 1,000 euros up or stay with a PC at half price . Actually, not all businesses need high technology, but hardware level Apple products tend to be much better than Microsoft.
The price difference is just over 2 × 1, but maintaining a PC can give more headaches . We must also take into account custom. If we have been raised using PC products, adapting to the Mac environment may take some time, and let's not talk about Linux.
Unless you are going to need u n high speed computer to work at a very specific level of professional services, a PC can be enough for a regular computer.
Then you must take into account the number of jobs there and which need a computer. A worker without a computer in many cases will not be able to do anything, but this is not always the case. We must take into account that you have to take into account at least 4 levels in the business, if it is an SME.
  • Computers at the counters . If it's a copy business, it's a must. Also the same could be said of restoration franchises, where there are usually several queues. But many other types of business that will require
  • Computers in the backoffice. They can be computers for the management of the administration, the management of the company, etc.
  • Computers for employees. Many types of businesses require a team for each employee, because if not, the company does not work. Think of newspapers, print shops, advertising agencies, etc.
  • Servers of the company. Not always an SME will need to have a server or own servers, but sometimes it is necessary. These require greater attention and care should be taken when buying hardware that is powerful enough and suitable for our purposes.
In short, it is complex to say how much budget would be adequate to spend without knowing in detail the characteristics of the company, number of employees, etc. In an office of a small business of 4 employees, the equipment budget may be around 2000 € , considering that sometimes the installation will separately pay the same computer service, while speaking of a more complicated business, budget The force must be greater.
How much did you spend on buying the computer equipment in your business? How much budget do you give to start your business?
