When a manufacturer stops providing support for a product, it doesn’t mean that the product becomes useless. It still has a lot of its original value, and if the product works for your company, it is convenient to keep using it. As long as there aren’t any glaring issues with the hardware or problems with its place in your company’s infrastructure, you can stretch your initial investment and keep the product working longer with TPM.

If you don’t want to upgrade your hardware right now, that’s okay. You can use TPM to help you continue using your existing hardware. When you’re ready, you can plan the upgrade and make sure you have the money for it. You won’t have to rush into a decision because you feel like you need new hardware.

If you are repairing your hardware yourself, you may not have access to the same parts that the manufacturer uses. This can be a problem because the parts may not work with your equipment. You can solve this problem by working with TPM. They have access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who are performing the repairs are experts in this field and may be more familiar with your equipment than in-house techs.

You can save money on post-EoL OEM services by working with a TPM company. They offer similar services for lower prices. You may also get more services with TPM than you would from your OEM. Plus, you can push back the cost of new equipment by working with TPM. An upgrade will still be necessary at some point, but TPM can help delay it.

OEMs specialize in their equipment, but TPM programs can focus on what your company needs. They can often do repairs quickly with little downtime. Some TPM options let you purchase only the services you need. You can also choose a hybrid model that includes some of both OEM and TPM support.
