Last month we discussed the importance of getting your budget created. We have a few things related to that to make you aware of this month. First, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) now allows small and medium-sized businesses to deduct 100 percent of the cost of new equipment up to $1 million. While you need to confirm with your accountant whether this can benefit your business, you may be able to realize significant savings in your taxes by implementing solutions this year.

Second, We’ve established a new partnership with Scale Computing. A provider of Hyper Converged Solutions. Our lead story below talks about the benefits of Hyperconvergence. Scale offers a cost effective solution to small and medium businesses that has not existed in the past. You can read more about our partnership here : Karpel and Scale Computing Karpel and Scale Computing

Lastly, we have been providing Hardware as a Service (HaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS) to some of our clients the last few years. This provides an option to making a large investment into equipment or software that you may be upgrading in 3 to 4 years.

Let us know if you would like to discuss any of these topics or the ones in the articles below. We are here to help your business utilize technology to be more efficient and profitable.
