The OEM Model vs. Your Reality

Most businesses stick with the conventional OEM hardware life cycle model:

 
 

Here’s how businesses should be handling IT hardware and maintenance:

 

Put yourself back into the driver’s seat and create the optimal hardware and maintenance solutions for your organization.

With the right approach, you can build solutions that are right-sized, flexible, and aligned with your business. Plus, you’ll be able to optimize your network’s performance and use of your budget.

Discover all the benefits of redefining your IT strategy when it comes to your hardware’s life cycle. CXtec is here to help you do just that.

 

IT procurement professionals are increasingly evaluating used-hardware resellers and third-party maintenance providers to reduce costs and extend the functional life of IT assets.
