Even if a manufacturer stops supporting a product, it doesn’t mean the product becomes useless. Most of the product’s value still remains, and if it is still working for your company, it is a good idea to keep using it. As long as there aren’t any major 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.

You may not have enough money to upgrade your hardware right now. You have other things to worry about, like your business and your time. And you don’t want to be in a hurry and buy new hardware because you feel like you have to. If you use TPM with your existing equipment, you can choose when to upgrade. You can plan for the transition and get your finances in order before buying new equipment.

If you are working on repairing your own hardware, you may not have access to OEM parts. This can be a problem because the replacements you find may not be trustworthy. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to more trusted parts that will work with your equipment. In addition, the technicians performing the repairs will be experts in this field and may be more familiar with your equipment than in-house techs.

Save money on post-EoL OEM services by working with a TPM company. TPM companies offer similar services but at a much lower price. Plus, they can often include a wider range of services or personalize the service to better meet your needs. 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.

OEM programs specialize in making and repairing equipment. TPM programs focus on the needs of a company. TPM options, like NorthSmart, let you purchase only the services you need. You can also create a hybrid model with elements of OEM and TPM support if that’s what fits your business.
