Multi-vendor support

Regardless of the type of business you're running, it's likely that the various types of equipment that you depend on come from a wide range of different vendors. Dell, HP, Microsoft, Toshiba, NCR - these are just a few of the many, many names that you're likely dealing with.

That, in essence, is why multi-vendor support and repair services are so important - they help make sure that no matter the issue you face and who manufactured your hardware, you always have a single company to support your break-fix needs moving forward.


What are Multi-Vendor Repairs?


Multi-vendor repair services like those offered by Mercom allow you to have all critical equipment maintained, repaired, and even refurbished by one company.  In addition to those outlined above, the team at Mercom is also capable of working with equipment from manufacturers like:



How to Handle Multi-Vendor Repairs


The most important thing to understand about this process is that every OEM (original equipment manufacturer) will have its own specific warranties that you're working with - and those warranties will eventually expire.


Some might offer a warranty that lasts for three years, while others may only offer one year. If you think about all of the different types of hardware from different manufacturers that you depend on daily, and then consider that all of those warranties are likely expiring at different times, handling issues can quickly become a time-consuming and frustrating process.


All of this is ultimately why finding a partner capable of handling out-of-warranty multi-vendor repairs can reduce your maintenance headaches.  You can have the confidence that comes with knowing your essential equipment is being repaired reliably and in a timely manner. It allows you to stop worrying about your technology so that you can continue to focus on your core business.
