Is your equipment reaching End of Support Life? We can continue to support it for you!

Original equipment manufacturers (OEM) will end the service life of equipment irrespective of your requirements. This can often leave organisations pressured into procuring new equipment unnecessarily. It doesn’t always need to be this way! However, it is vitally important to be prepared for the end of service life which is set by the OEM. With Data Shield as your maintenance provider, we can continue to support your hardware for as long as you require.
