Greetings!
 

Last week's survey

In the last week's survey , we asked -  What is a reasonable rate to pay a techie for servicing your printer?

     

  • For a certified technician $180.00 per hour plus expenses.
  • I think paying for good service is a no brainer, but Key word being " Good " . To pay money for service without getting value for money its what gets me. eg replacing items that are either not ready to be replaced or there is a better solution to changing parts that dont last is what I think gets everyones goat. The technician should get paid a good rate but should also be doing the best they can for the business they are servicing not just buying the parts and putting in like a monkey.
  • Only have wide formats that need servicing. Feel the hourly rate at $80 to $100 is fine but the call out and travelling time rates are out of this world.
  • What I think and what Fujifilm think are two completely different matters. Being in Canberra (obviously outback Australia) I have to pay $980.00 + GST just to get a technician here before he even looks at it.   
  • $120/hr tops for a tech who knows his job. At that rate I would get them in more often. As it is I dont call and/or get them out as fast as I can. I have had techs @ $150/hr plus, who I have had to walk by the hand through technical issues - the only thing they have, that I do not, is the tech manual & a box of even more expensive parts. For parts, I am coming to the conclusion that I am better to buy parts online in readyness rather than wait till the part is necessary that day & pay the Service agents price for parts.
  • A reasonable technician costs their employee min.$60k, plus super and car or allowance ($15k). Add work cover, mobile, laptop etc.(say 10% to cover this) and cost is up around $90k. They work 200 days p/year, (I have deducted holidays and vacation), and then another ten days for training, and say 2 days per month for admin. / conferences / sick etc.
    Total 180 days of billable time. Realistically deducting travel, and unbillable hours, a technician may be able to make 4 calls per day @ say 1.5 hours chargeable per day. Breakeven, is min. $100 per hour. I am fairly sure most service managers will tell you my figures are way too low. So lets say $150 per hour is not unreasonable...
  • Good question, I was having my printers serviced for around $850.00 under warranty then another company took control it was costing me around that price for each and thats with us doing basic cleaning measures, I doubt if I would continue it under warranty if I bought a new one, it costs you the same to service your printers regardless if they have been busy or not and when your not its expensive. Its better you learn to service them yourself because when they are out of warranty you cant get the parts from the company as they want to send out a tech to install it even on simple parts, if it was fixed pricing like a car then I would consider it otherwise it can blow right out.
  • $50 call out. $25 per 15min block. These guys are not brain surgeons or even solicitors.Thier knowlege base is all differnt and in many cases limited to thier phone call to superiors.... We are happy to see them but they are not gods and should not extort.I have had bad experience with G-----R
  • $110.00 per hour no more than 2 hours perhaps 3 for a wide format.
  • I think that the cost should be only 10% more than what we charge our labour out at , it seems currently that we are paying an unreasonable amout for this service simply because we usually are under the pump to get the machine up and running again, and they have us over a barrel! "pay what we want or you dont get your machine fixed". It would seem that there is no competition in this service industry and it needs to be addressed.
    Try getting servive on your HP latex machine on a Friday afternoon ! first you have to call India!!!
  • $75/hr
  • Currently most charge $130 to $150 per hour this is inline with other industries that have service technicians.As a supplier who offers sevicing we vary rates and travel times to our client base to make it affordable to both city as well as country clients.This has led to increase in our client base.I find that some major players are after the dollar not customer service and support this affects future and on going buisness. It is one of the reasons you see customers changing brands due to poor after sales and servicing issues, we see and hear of it on a daily basis. Wake up and stop using the customer as a cash cow and support them as these are how you stay in a strong position for now and the future.  
  • Unfortunately as this indusrtry advances technologically our suppliers who provide this machinery have realised that they can hold the buyer to ransom by stipulating that ONLY THEIR service rep can work on the equipment allowing them to charge outrageous support and servicing fees. I do not begrudge a supplier chargeing fair and reasonable fees but it is outragous some of the charges that are incurred. I would be happy to pay $90.00 per hour travel time and $ 120.00 per hour for time spent working. Afterall this is no different to any other trade or profession. I have witnessed on many occassions that these technicians also take calls on their mobiles, at times using up to 30 minutes of time of which I have still been charged for. In this hard economic times maybe suppliers might want to think about supporting the companies that purchase these overpriced highly expensive items of technology (compared to the world pricing market) and the manner in which they treat them after the deal has been done.
  • About $120.00 an hour is reasonable. Problem is do they charge for only the time they work. I have had a techie who became a bit of a friend and we would chat for a while when he came. Our friendship ended when he charged me for the time we chatted over coffee.
