Benefits of Third Party Maintenance for BROCADE DCX-4S BACKBONE DIRECTOR

When a manufacturer stops supporting a product, it doesn’t become useless. It still has a lot of its original value. If the product works for your company, it is good to keep using it. As long as there aren’t any big problems with the hardware or how it works in your company’s system, you can keep using the product for a while by using TPM.
You may be wondering if you should upgrade your hardware soon. But upgrading can be expensive, and your company may not have the extra money to spend right now. That’s why using TPM can help. You can use your current hardware for a while longer and upgrade when you’re ready. You can plan for the transition and make sure you have the money saved up before making a purchase.
If you are repairing your hardware yourself, you may not have easy access to the original parts. You might have to get parts from less-than-trustworthy manufacturers. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who will be repairing your hardware are experts in the field and may be more familiar with your equipment than in-house techs.
If you want to save money on post-EoL OEM services, work with a TPM company. They offer similar services at a much lower price. Plus, the scope of work may be more expansive or personalized than what your OEM offers. You can also push back the cost of new equipment by working with a TPM company. While an upgrade will still be necessary at some point, TPM can help delay it.
OEMs specialize in their equipment, but TPM programs can focus on the needs of your company. TPM programs might be able to do a repair that causes less downtime or offer more services that can save you money. Some TPM programs, like NorthSmart, let you buy only the services you need. You can also create a hybrid model with some of the features of both OEM and TPM support if that’s what works best for your business.
