What does hardware maintenance cost?

Most TPM providers say “price on request”. We don't. Here are real indicative ranges per device class from our contract data — 30–70 % below OEM. The binding fixed-price quote comes within 48 hours after install-base review.

Indicative prices per device class

€ per device per year at SLA 24×7×4 (mid-range). Indicative — derived from real TechCare contracts across 28 vendors.

Device class TechCare TPM OEM (list price)
Server
Tower-UPS class to multi-socket chassis (e.g. PowerEdge, ProLiant, Primergy)
€525–11,450 €1,000–21,200
Storage
Entry SAN to enterprise array (e.g. PowerStore/Unity, FAS, VSP, FlashArray)
€2,350–7,950 €4,350–14,700
Network
Access switch to core/spine (e.g. Catalyst, Nexus, Arista, Juniper)

Pricing FAQ

Why do you publish prices when other TPM providers don't?
Because “price on request” wastes time and erodes trust. We show real indicative ranges from our contract data so you get a solid ballpark immediately. The binding fixed-price quote follows within 48 hours after install-base review.
How are the ranges derived?
From real TechCare maintenance contracts across 28 vendors, at SLA 24×7×4 (mid-range), per device per year. The width of a class reflects the hardware spread (e.g. small switch vs. core chassis).
What drives the actual price?
SLA tier (9×5×NBD to 24×7×2), quantity (volume effect), model/generation, site density and whether EOSL pre-stock logistics are needed. Larger, well-distributed fleets get cheaper per device.
How much do I save versus the manufacturer?
In mid-range roughly 45–55 % below OEM list price. Against post-EOSL OEM custom support (often 150–300 % of the regular level) up to 70 %. The exact figure comes from the install-base review.
Are these prices binding?
No — they are indicative ranges for orientation. The binding per-system fixed price comes after install-base review (any format: service tags, Excel export, model+serial) within 48 hours.
