V-Care® is Cranel's comprehensive and customized scanner service and maintenance solution. Proactive and complete, it extends the life of your end-user's equipment by packaging everything needed to ensure scanner up time—the manufacturer's break/fix service program, preventative maintenance visits, and consumables based on expected usage—into one comprehensive maintenance solution package. Our partners maximize revenue from single and multi-year V-Care while their end-user's scanners operate at peak performance, delivering a higher equipment ROI.

With V-Care, critical support is just a phone call away. Our manufacturer-trained technicians are dedicated to solving scanner problems quickly and efficiently.

Cranel proudly offers a comprehensive portfolio of service and maintenance offerings from our stable of hardware and software manufacturing partners. Our manufacturer portfolio includes hardware service offerings ranging from advance exchange to a variety of on-site service alternatives with same day and next day response levels. Software maintenance includes software update and enhancement choices and multiple phone support options.

Changing consumables and equipment supplies on a regular basis keeps equipment in top working condition and extends the life of the scanner or printer. Consumables such as rollers, brakes rollers, pad assemblies and ink become worn or depleted and need to be refreshed. Other components like output trays, paper guides and power supplies can also deteriorate over time and should be replaced. Routine replacement of consumables and supplies is essential for the upkeep and longevity of scanners and printers while ensuring the best possible image and output quality. Cranel has a broad inventory of document imaging and check consumables and supplies from our OEM partners. Procurement time is minimized since items are in stock and our delivery is quick.  Your customers repair delays are minimized, reducing end-user's expenses associated with “down” equipment. 

While Cranel's first choice is to provide new equipment, price-sensitive customer needs sometimes dictate the need to consider alternate solutions. Many Cranel partners choose to consider quality, refurbished equipment and supplies from Cranel. We meticulously refurbish pre-owned equipment and components to make them available at significantly reduced cost. Each refurbished item comes with an extended warranty and the option to include a manufacturer service contract, ensuring customer satisfaction and real value.
