Used Cisco > Refurbished Cisco for Small Businesses
All IT professionals know how expensive it can be to acquire enterprise-grade networking equipment. Even if you can find a well-priced modern solution, legacy hardware for specific business needs or applications is often hard to come by.

In our time of tight resources and executive demands on your department, many IT teams are now turning to second-hand options that offer considerable – and immediate – cost savings and sustainability gains.Â
Some IT users weren’t sure about the quality, and reliability of refurbished equipment. But, not anymore. Companies like Alta Technologies provide expertly refurbished systems with an industry-leading standard that ensures the end user receives ‘like new’ products without the headaches associated with buying directly from expensive VARs and MSPs.
Guaranteed performance is essential, so ask about warranties and support from your vendors.
There are a few factors to consider when choosing refurbished Cisco equipment for your small business. The first one is your business needs. This is affected by how many employees are using the network, and what applications are running.Â
Another important factor is the reseller. Always choose a reputable reseller with a proven track record. Make sure they offer warranties, technical support as well as extended maintenance services, and have long-standing industry associations and/or certifications (such as R2v3, ASCDI, ISO, UNEDA, etc..) and references. Never buy equipment that hasn't been fully tested and inspected.Â
Our multi-step testing process eliminates performance variability. Before making equipment available for purchase, everything runs through this process, so you know every system entering your environment will just work like new, if not better.
At Alta, we make significant investments in decommissioning and testing excess IT equipment, so that it still functions as well as it did for the first user.Â
Keeping up with every latest release is both wasteful and extremely expensive when replacement costs escalate. Not only excess IT savings, but a buyback program becomes an increasingly appealing option for many small businesses operating within budget constraints.Â
Whether you’re looking for cash for your pile of equipment lying in a corner or some trade-in credit on a new system, we do that every day.
