BrandPost: Managing PC mishaps: 4 reasons to prepare for the unexpected

The following are examples of issues end users may face. Thanks to the versatility and variety of HP Care Pack services available, IT can provide that extra protection beyond the device warranty to ensure end users are covered wherever they work. 

 1. Feeling Blue?

What happened?

An employee gets the blue screen of death on a tight deadline.

The result

A key project’s deadline was missed, impacting the organization’s bottom line and IT’s time.

The solution

Keep PCs up and running and minimize disruptions to your business’ projects with HP Next Business Day Onsite Service. An HP service expert will run a remote diagnosis or arrive onsite next day to help make things right.

2. It was an accident!

What happened?

A notebook PC was dropped while walking up the stairs.

The result

Productivity came to a halt and the business incurred last-minute higher repair costs.

The solution

Mishaps happen. Don’t let them slow your users – or business – down. Get them back to work quickly and avoid out-of-pocket costs with HP Accidental Damage Protection.

3. Travel troubles

What happened?

While getting ready to go to a meeting, a colleague left their laptop on the roof of the rental car before driving off. Unsurprisingly, the laptop didn’t survive.

The result

The employee couldn’t present critical information to important customers. They lost the deal.

The solution

Travel worry free and reduce downtime out of the office. Get quick support with the HP Travel Support Service, available worldwide in more than 90 countries.

4. Hard drive meltdown

What happened?

An employee was on the way to a remote facility and got an error message.
