When a manufacturer stops supporting a product, that product is not suddenly useless. It still has most 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 glaring issues with the hardware or problems with its place in your company’s infrastructure, you can continue to use the product for a longer time by using TPM.

If your company doesn’t have a lot of extra money to spend on upgrading your hardware, you don’t need to worry. You can still 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 working on hardware by yourself, you may not be able to get OEM parts. This means you might have to get parts from less-than-trustworthy manufacturers. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who will be performing the repairs are 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 have much lower prices and the same skill set as OEMs. Plus, with TPM, you may get more work done or a more personalized service than what your OEM offers. You can also push back the cost of new equipment with TPM. Although an upgrade will still be necessary at some point, TPM can help delay it.

TPM programs are different from OEMs because they focus more on the needs of your company. TPMs might be able to fix your equipment in a way that creates little downtime 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 aspects of an OEM and TPM support if that’s what works for your business.
