Benefits of Third Party Maintenance for NETAPP FAS8020 480-SLOT FILER SYSTEM

When a manufacturer stops supporting a product, it doesn’t stop being useful. 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 keep using the product for longer by using TPM.
If you don’t have a lot of money to spend, you can still upgrade your hardware. You can use TPM to help you keep using your old hardware until you’re ready to buy new hardware. You can plan for the transition and make sure you have the money before you buy anything.
If you are fixing 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 well with your equipment. You can solve this issue by working with TPM. TPM has access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who work for TPM 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 offer similar services but at a much lower price. In addition, the scope of work offered by TPM companies 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.
While an OEM specializes in their equipment, TPM programs can focus more on the needs of your company. They might be able to do a repair 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.
