Benefits of Third Party Maintenance for CISCO CATALYST 2980G-A 80-PORT 10/100 SWITCH

When a manufacturer stops supporting a product, the equipment is not suddenly useless. It still has most of its original value, and if it 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 keep using the product for longer by using TPM.
If you don’t have a lot of money to spend on upgrading your hardware, you don’t need to worry. You can use TPM to help you continue using your existing hardware until you’re ready to upgrade. You can plan for the upgrade and save up money before buying new equipment. This will help make sure that you’re able to afford the upgrade without being rushed into a decision.
If you are fixing your own hardware, you may not have access to parts from the original manufacturer. This can be a problem because the replacements may not be trustworthy. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who perform the repairs will be experts in this field and may be more familiar with your equipment than in-house techs.
You can save money by working with a TPM company instead of an OEM company. TPM companies have lower prices and the same skill set. They can do the job without charging more. In addition, the work that TPM does may be more extensive than what the OEM offers. You also get to push back the cost of new equipment. While you will still need to upgrade at some point, TPM can help delay that.
OEMs specialize in their equipment, while TPM programs can focus on the needs of your company. TPM options can offer better deals and services, like less downtime or more comprehensive services. Some TPM programs, 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.
