What are my options
Extend with the OEM
Available until the last date of support, usually at a stepped-up post-EOS price. Best where you need current firmware, security patches, or a support-gated software entitlement.
Move to third-party maintenance
Parts and engineering coverage from an independent provider, typically 50 to 70 percent below the post-EOS OEM renewal. Best for stable, feature-complete platforms.
Replace
Refresh onto current-generation hardware. Compare the multi-year support saving from extending against the capital and migration cost of replacement.
Decommission via ITAD
Retire the asset with NIST 800-88 data erasure, chain of custody, and certificates of destruction. Resellable units can offset the project cost.
