Common Sense IT: Save on Maintenance to Extend the Scope of Your IT Budget
The OEM’s approach to maintenance doesn’t make sense to us. The OEMs treat your maintenance contracts more like insurance policies—the older your equipment and the more likely it is to fail, the more they charge to maintain and support your machines.
That seems reasonable until you break down the true cost of maintaining your hardware over time. What the OEM doesn’t tell you is that it actually costs less to maintain older equipment as spares become more abundant and engineering talent more prevalent. It’s simple economics: supply and demand. And to us, it’s just common sense to pass the subsequent savings on to you—40% to 80% on average.

In this e-book, we are breaking down the reasons that make EMC support significantly more expensive than third-party maintenance. We are also showcasing a customer success story and how CentricsIT was able to save a leading health-tech company an average of 40-50% on EMC maintenance and support costs.
The cost to renew OEM support on older equipment is substantially higher than the cost to support brand new hardware. What the OEM doesn’t want you to know is that it actually costs Cisco less to maintain your equipment the longer it has been on the market. A switch to a third party maintenance provider can save you up to 80% on your Cisco maintenance expenditures.
This datasheet will reveal the cost comparison between IBM, NetApp and EMC maintenance and support through the OEM versus a third-party maintenance provider. We will also explain the secrets behind OEM maintenance and how TPM providers are able to offer the same or better support at a fraction of the cost.
