If you are purchasing network products such as servers, firewalls, routers, SANs, switches, etc., you should consider adding a support contract.
1. Contracts offer flexible service levels.
Most companies offer a variety of support options so that you can tailor the support to your specific needs. A 24 x 7 support contract is important for mission-critical equipment, where “Next Day” support is an option for less essential equipment.
2. A service contract is cost effective.
By minimizing business disruption and risks, a contract will save you money. A contract allows time to budget replacement parts, rather than an unplanned expenditure. Save money by purchasing multi-year contracts.
3. A support contract has added benefits.
Support contracts extend beyond the basic warranty and give you access to software upgrades and additional professional services.
