Even if a manufacturer stops supporting a product, that product still has a lot of value. It can still be used if it works for your company. You can keep using it as long as there aren’t any big problems with the hardware or how it works in your company’s infrastructure.

If your hardware is close to its end-of-service date, and your company doesn’t have a lot of extra money to spend on upgrades, you don’t have to worry. You can continue using 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. When you’re ready, you can purchase new equipment without feeling rushed.

If you are repairing your hardware yourself, you may not have access to the same parts that the manufacturer uses. This can be a problem because the parts may not work with your equipment. A better option might be to work with TPM. They have access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who perform the repairs are 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 included 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.

TPM programs focus on the needs of a company. They can do things like fix the equipment in a way that causes little down time or offer more services for less. Some TPM companies, like NorthSmart, let you only pay for the services you need. You can also choose a hybrid model with some aspects of OEM and TPM support.
