Cut the Cord: Why It’s Time to Move HPE Hardware Off OEM Support

Still paying a premium to keep your HPE servers, storage, or networking gear under OEM support? You’re not alone—but you might be overpaying for peace of mind you’re not actually getting.

Here’s why third-party support is a smarter option for your HPE infrastructure:

• Better Support for HP ProLiant, HPE Networking & Aruba and More

  Whether you’re running HP ProLiant, HPE Networking & Aruba, or still relying on aging HPE Storage —third-party providers specialize in exactly these systems. That means parts on hand, expert-level engineers, and deep system familiarity—often more than what you'd get through standard HPE channels.

• Massive Cost Savings

  Third-Party Maintenance typically cuts your HPE support costs by 40–70%, with no drop in service quality. That’s a big win for stretched IT budgets trying to delay capital refresh cycles.

• Post-EOSL (End of Service Life) Doesn’t Mean End of Use

  HPE may stop supporting your hardware after a certain date, but that doesn’t mean it stops working. TPM keeps your fully functional systems alive and supported years beyond HPE’s EOSL timelines—on your schedule, not theirs.

• Global Parts Availability

  No more waiting on HPE’s logistics delays. Third-party support providers stock tested, HPE-certified parts across major data center regions, ensuring quick replacements without supply chain headaches.

• Customized SLAs & Coverage

  Get exactly what you need—on-site, next-day, or 4-hour response times. TPM offers SLA flexibility HPE doesn’t, and support that’s tailored to your business priorities.

Bottom line: Third-party support puts you back in control of your HPE hardware lifecycle—reducing spend, extending system value, and increasing support responsiveness.
