No matter your job title, if you oversee technology decisions in your company, you have a lot of responsibilities. Your job is to use your investments to deliver the best computing infrastructure that also saves your organization budget money - you’re expected to do it all!

Cisco SMARTnet service is the Cisco support service that combines hardware replacement and technical support. With SMARTnet service, you can choose from a range of service delivery options for Cisco products.
With Cisco SMARTnet, you can get 24-hour technical support with access to Cisco experts at varying service levels. But at what cost does this premium service come?
Let's face it. The conventional OEM maintenance model doesn't work for every situation. If your refresh cycle is similar to what the OEM has in mind, you might be okay.
But what if your situation isn't a perfect match for the OEM cycle? Over time you get less value for your service dollars. That's just how it goes with the conventional OEM model.
What if you could achieve very similar coverage to Cisco SMARTnet support, without the huge price tag? You can.
In the rare case the unexpected happens - and you have a failure - what happens next? RapidCare to the rescue!
With SMARTnet, you could spend hours on the phone waiting for someone to elevate your issue. Not the case with CXtec.
A simple phone call to us and a replacement product is dispatched to your location for guaranteed arrival when you need it.
Rapid deployment of your replacement product helps minimize downtime and reduces the risk of extended outages.
If you haven’t considered using third-party maintenance, the time is now. There are tons of benefits for you and RapidCare is the solution that saves you money and makes your life easy.
Whether you're covering new or pre-owned equipment, using TPM is a smart way to Redefine IT Strategy™ and save money that can be used on other high-priority needs in your infrastructure.
When CXtec first started discussions with this organization, we took it upon ourselves to better organize their spreadsheet of assets and propose a co-termination strategy to simplify their complicated coverage. These steps allowed us to become a trusted advisor, someone the organization could rely on to propose solutions that were in their best interest.
Once we understood their asset portfolio, and level of coverage needed for each, CXtec was able to present a hybrid solution that mixed OEM support, RapidCare third-party maintenance, and spares to ensure proper coverage throughout their infrastructure.
This organization realized 60% savings on their overall support investment, as well as a simplified means of organizing their assets, saving them further time and effort.
