Benefits of Third Party Maintenance for CISCO CATALYST 2960G 8-PORT 10/100/1000 SFP SWITCH

Even if a manufacturer stops supporting a product, it doesn’t mean that the product becomes useless. It usually still has a lot of its original value. If the product works for your company, it can be 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.
You might not have enough extra money to buy new hardware for your company. You also don’t want to be in a hurry and make a decision you’ll regret. TPM can help you continue using your current hardware until you’re ready to upgrade. You can prepare for the change and have your finances in order before buying new equipment.
If you are repairing your hardware yourself, you may not have access to the same quality parts that the manufacturer provides. In this case, you may need to work with less-than-reliable manufacturers in order to get the parts you need. However, working with TPM will give you access to better quality parts that are compatible with your equipment. The technicians who perform these repairs are also 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. TPM companies have lower prices and the same skill set as OEMs. In addition, the scope of work with TPM may be more expansive or personalized than what is offered by your OEM. You also get to push back the cost of new equipment. While an upgrade will still be necessary at some point, TPM can help keep it at bay.
Even though an OEM specializes in their equipment, a TPM program can focus more on the needs of your company. A TPM might be able to do a repair in a way that has less downtime for your company or offer more services that can save you money. Some TPMs, like NorthSmart, let you purchase only the services you need. You can also create a hybrid model with some elements of OEM and TPM support if that
