Depot Express Hot Spare Service
Overview
Depot Express Hot Spare Service is a combination of a no-fault product warranty and a guaranteed loaner program. Traditionally, equipment has only a short manufacturer’s defect warranty. With the SCLogic Depot Express Program, the warranty is unlimited as long as enrollment is kept current, and the product can be repaired by the manufacturer. In addition, SCLogic stocks Hot Spare inventory for your use, while your unit is being serviced. We’ll ship you a certified loaner unit, of the same model or newer, preloaded, and ready for use.
You’re Covered
Crack the display? No problem. Damage the outer casing? No problem. Broken exit window? No problem. Our program offers comprehensive coverage at no additional cost to protect you from the unexpected. We cover normal wear and tear, as well as repairs to displays, touch screens, plastics, keypads, exit windows, and other internal and external components damaged through accidental breakage. At SCLogic, we don't focus on how it happened, but on how to keep you up and running. If your hardware can be repaired by the manufacturer, it’s covered. The only time you will see a bill is if the unit is so severely damaged that the manufacturer determines it cannot be repaired. Consumables like batteries and stylus are not covered.
We’ll Send You a Loaner
- Request a Loaner before 3:00 p.m. EST and have a Hot Spare unit shipped the same day.
- Your original unit will be repaired and returned to you within three weeks.
- Return your loaner within one week of receiving your repaired unit.
Service Details
SCLogic ships via Ground Service, at our expense, reaching many of our clients within 1 to 2 days. You will always receive your original unit back (as long as it is repairable). When it comes to Services, SCLogic makes what it sells. If you have a question or problem, SCLogic stands alone in its ability to provide a single point of contact to address it.
