Benefits of Third Party Maintenance for CISCO CATALYST 3550 24-PORT 10/100 SWITCH

Even if a manufacturer stops supporting a product, it doesn’t mean that the product becomes useless. It still has a lot of its original value. If the product works for your company, it is convenient to keep using it. As long as there aren’t any big problems with the hardware or how it fits into your company’s infrastructure, you can use it for longer by using TPM.
If your hardware is about to reach its end-of-service life and your company doesn’t have much extra money to spend on upgrades, don’t worry. You can continue to use your existing equipment with the help of TPM. That way, you can choose when to upgrade, and you can prepare for the transition by getting your finances in order first.
If you are repairing your hardware yourself, you may not have access to OEM parts. This can be a problem because the quality of the part may be lower than if you use a trusted manufacturer. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to parts that are trusted and 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.
Save money on post-EoL OEM services by working with a TPM company. They offer much lower prices than OEMs, and they have a similar skill set. 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.
OEMs specialize in their equipment. However, TPM programs can focus more on the needs of your company. They might be able to repair equipment in a way that creates as little downtime as possible or offer more encompassing services that can provide a better deal. Some TPM options, like NorthSmart, let you purchase only the services you need. You can even create a hybrid model with elements of OEM and TPM support if that’s what fits your business.
