The global crisis impacting RAM memory component production and the shift of CPUs toward higher price brackets are generating growing concern among market operators. The increase and volatility of costs, due to limited availability, make the current context unpredictable; 2026 looks uncertain with no signs of short-term improvement.
In this scenario, CIOs from various sectors highlight growing difficulties in planning hardware investments. Many companies are postponing data center renewal projects and adopting strategies to extend endpoint lifecycles, awaiting greater market stability.
However, extending the device fleet requires particular attention to security aspects. Obsolete or inadequately managed endpoints can increase the attack surface and operational risk. It therefore becomes essential to pair these strategies with solutions that ensure centralized management, control, and continuous updates.
Praim’s hardware production lines have not been exempt from the cost increases of certain components, necessitating price list adjustments. The goal remains to carefully manage this phase while ensuring supply continuity to customers.
Beyond hardware, Praim offers the ThinOX4PC operating system in license mode as well. This allows transforming laptops and desktops from previous generations into secure, centrally managed Thin Clients. Companies can thus extend endpoint lifespans, contain investments, and maintain adequate security levels during a particularly critical market phase.
In an uncertain market phase, the ability to combine operational efficiency and technological resilience becomes a distinguishing factor for the IT function.
