The company's office must now be equipped with office equipment such as printers, scanners, computers, etc. It is easy to use on a day-to-day basis, but it may not be so convenient when computer failure requires maintenance. Without specialized it technicians, computer maintenance services are often sought only from external sources, and the uneven level of service personnel available in the market, the lack of transparency of fees, the lack of security in the source of components, etc., tends to cause problems in maintenance, as well as headaches for those in need。
The main reason for these disturbances is that the current market for computer maintenance in our country has not yet developed a unified and complete system. At present, there are three main types of computer maintenance enterprises in our country: manufacturing services, authorized maintenance centres and individual maintenance businesses。
1. Vendor services
Among them, the manufacturing service is a maintenance service run by the manufacturer or national agent, characterized by a better-versed maintenance worker, who is often not a knowledgeable and all-powerful person, usually providing maintenance services only for his or her own products and not or rarely for other branded products. Product information and spare parts for the maintenance points will be more readily available。
Maintenance workers are mostly wage-based and operate more regularly, but the factory maintenance costs are high, especially for spare parts that exceed the warranty period and are not covered by the warranty (e. G., burn, hard damage). They do not necessarily have maintenance equipment on their own, nor do they have a chip-grade maintenance engineer, and in case of problems, spare parts are usually replaced directly with new spare parts and the replacement parts are returned to the manufacturer for repair, which naturally increases maintenance costs. In the case of good products during warranty periods, there are sometimes minor problems, simply because maintenance beyond warranty periods is costly to purchase new accessories, which is not reasonable for users. Of course, it is also possible to return directly to the manufacturer through the distribution channels purchased, but this operation usually takes longer。
2. Authorized maintenance centres
The authorized maintenance centres consist mainly of manufacturers entrusting the assignment of services to specialized enterprises, which may normally be contracted by certain manufacturers. The characteristics of such maintenance enterprises are similar to those of category i and more formal. However, in addition to making the products of a designated manufacturer, they will also take over other products. The disadvantage is that maintenance costs are still expensive and “ununderstood”。
The apple notebook was sent to a special maintenance centre for repairs during the warranty period, and the maintenance staff offered to replace the main board. If the notebook was not under warranty, it would cost nearly $7,000 to replace it, while the purchase of a used apple notebook might be less than $7,000。
Even more surprising is the fact that maintenance is free during the warranty period, but if not, the test fee is $85. This is due to the fact that such maintenance enterprises charge no money for the maintenance of the products during the customer's warranty period, but can collect money from the contracted manufacturer, and the maintenance centre cannot charge the manufacturer if the customer does not. It would be good for the user to change the new parts, but it might be difficult to replace all the things that could be used with a little bit of repair, to re-manage the backup, to waste time waiting。
3. Individual repairers
The last category of individual repairers is dominated by private maintenance businesses that are scattered in large numbers and in a variety of locations. Most of them were created by maintenance engineers who had previously worked at the plant or at the special maintenance centre. Often, the characteristics of such points can be fixed at all levels and water or insured products can be addressed. The cost of operating itself is low, operating in a flexible manner, and maintenance can be affordable。
There may be some highly skilled maintenance engineers at private maintenance sites, but for some less well-informed white users the probability of encountering a black-hearted maintenance shop increases dramatically, often without security and easy to experience when problems or disputes arise。
In such cases, then, does the user have to choose to spend more or take chances when it comes to the need for computer maintenance?
Indeed, with the development of the internet, the plight of traditional computer maintenance is gradually improving. Now, all you need to do is go to the internet and find the master to repair it。
