What Can Your Organization Do With EoL or EoSL CISCO CATALYST 5500 13-SLOT CHASSIS W/AC/FANS

As a If your products are EoL or EoSL, you might feel like you are in a tough spot. You might think that you need to buy new products to keep getting support. But this is not true. You can keep your old products, but you will have to go without OEM support. This means that if there are any technical difficulties or breakdowns, you will have to solve them yourself. And it is hard to be sure that your hardware will work properly with new software and technology as they come out. has announced EOSL on all

Benefits of Third Party Maintenance for CISCO CATALYST 5500 13-SLOT CHASSIS W/AC/FANS

When a manufacturer stops supporting a product, it doesn’t mean the product is suddenly useless. The product 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 stretch your initial investment and keep the product working longer with TPM.
If you don’t have a lot of extra money to spend on new hardware, you can still use your old hardware with the help of TPM. You can upgrade when you’re ready, and you can prepare for the transition by getting your finances in order.
If you are repairing your own hardware, you may not have access to the same parts that the manufacturer uses. This can be a problem because the parts may not be as reliable. You can solve this problem by working with TPM. TPM has access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who do 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 for their services and they offer a skill set that is very similar to what OEMs offer. In addition, the scope of work that is 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.
OEMs specialize in making and selling equipment. TPM programs focus on the needs of a company, like making sure that downtime is minimized when there is a repair or providing more services that might be helpful. 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 works for your business.
