CISCO MERAKI MX65W ROUTER

When a manufacturer stops supporting a product, the equipment 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 big problems with the hardware or with its place in your company’s infrastructure, you can keep using the product for a longer time by using TPM.

You may be at a point where your hardware is about to reach its end-of-service life (EoSL). However, your company may not have the extra money to spend on upgrades right now. You have your own business to run and need to balance your time. Additionally, you don’t want to feel rushed into making a decision about upgrading because you feel like you need new hardware. By continuing to use your existing equipment with the help of technology performance management (TPM), you can choose when you’re ready to upgrade. You can prepare for the transition and have your finances in order before purchasing new equipment.

If you are fixing your hardware yourself, you may not have access to the original parts. You might have to get parts from manufacturers that you don’t trust. But if you work with TPM, you will have access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who are repairing your equipment are experts in this field and may know more about it than in-house technicians.

If you want to avoid high prices for post-EoL OEM services, you can work with a TPM company. TPM companies offer similar skills at a much lower cost. 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 by working with a TPM company. While an upgrade will still be necessary at some point, TPM can help delay it.

TPM programs can focus on the needs of your company. They might be able to do a repair that creates little down time or offer more services for a better price. Some TPM options let you purchase only the services you need. You can even create a hybrid model with some of the benefits of an OEM and TPM program.
