Services

Hardware maintenance, IT, security, and backup.

We maintain the servers, storage, and network in the rack. Managed IT, cybersecurity, and backup are available if you need them.

How it works

From your asset list to a quote, usually the same day.

  1. 01

    Send the asset list

    Serials, an export, or a photo of the rack. We map every brand in the list — including EOSL boxes the manufacturer no longer quotes.

  2. 02

    Same-day multi-vendor quote

    One price, mixed service levels, typically 70% below the manufacturer. We follow up the same business day.

  3. 03

    Coverage starts

    One contract, one team. Engineers who already know the room pick up — 24 × 7 × 365.

IT and Security

Managed IT, cybersecurity, and backup — quoted on their own.

Hardware maintenance covers the rack. Managed IT covers the help desk, Microsoft 365, and the servers people log into. Cybersecurity covers servers and managed endpoints. Backup copies those systems and Microsoft 365 to isolated cloud storage.

Service levels

Mix 2-hour onsite with parts-only. Change it anytime.

Every contract can include portal access, onsite spares, remote troubleshooting, asset tracking, defective media retention, and OS coverage. T&M is available when something off-contract breaks.

T&M when it is not on contract

Hourly engineers across manufacturers will get the room up, then you decide whether the box belongs under a contract. Call 1-855-NETRAID or send the serials — no requirement to buy coverage first.

Common questions

Leaving the manufacturer.

What is third-party maintenance?

Third-party maintenance (TPM) is independent hardware repair and replacement for enterprise servers, storage, and networks. It is an alternative to an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) warranty or post-warranty contract. You keep the equipment. Coverage can run while the manufacturer warranty is active, after it ends, and after the product is end-of-life (EOL) or end-of-service-life (EOSL).

What are the advantages of third-party maintenance?

Typically 70% below a manufacturer renewal, longer life for hardware that still works, one contract for mixed brands, service levels you can mix and change, local engineers, and parts that are already nearby. You stop paying to fund the vendor’s next product.

Why choose NETRAID for third-party support?

Independent hardware maintenance since 2004, 100% customer retention, engineers typically within 20 miles, a 30-minute first response on production, and the Client Portal for tickets and assets. Same-day quotes.

Is it safe to leave the OEM?

Manufacturers are good at building hardware — and at making you feel you cannot leave. NETRAID engineers are factory-trained, parts are certified, and service levels are written to the room, not to a product the vendor still wants to sell. Our customer retention is 100%.

What hardware do you cover?

Dell, HPE, IBM, Cisco, NetApp, Hitachi, Lenovo, Oracle, Everpure, Juniper, Brocade, and others that are not on the published list. If it is in the rack, send the serial. We still quote it.

Can we mix service levels?

Yes. 2-hour onsite on the production VSP, next-business-day on lab Unity, parts-only on a dusty tape library. Change levels when a workload moves. One invoice.

What if something is not on contract?

Time and materials. Hourly engineers will get the system running, then you can decide whether to put it on a contract. You do not have to buy coverage first.

How fast can you cover a new site?

Days, not quarters. We deploy local engineers and parts against the asset list. United States, Canada, and Germany are live today.

Why does third-party maintenance cost less?

Manufacturer renewals are priced to fund the next product cycle. We price parts, local engineers, and the service level you actually use. That is why quotes typically land around 70% below the OEM number — not because the work is thinner.

How do you keep downtime down?

Engineers typically within 20 miles, parts already in the region, and a 30-minute first response on contracted production systems. The goal is a repair with a part that is already nearby — not a ticket that waits on a national depot.
