What is our managed service support?
Our support service provides you and your system with direct assistance from our experienced team. In addition to offering support for those solutions that we have implemented, we are also happy to manage systems that may be new to us. On a day-to-day basis, we provide critical assistance following any issues/bugs that occur within your system, and to limit downtime/impact on your business, we operate the following Service-Level Agreements (SLAs) on all Service Requests (SR) that are raised:
- 1-hour response time to acknowledge SR which is logged to our dedicated support email address
- A next business day response time for action plan/resolution confirmation related to each SR

We ensure all updates, patches and upgrades are assessed and completed seemlesssly when they become available. This guarantees that your system’s users will be able to focus solely on their tasks, unaffected by any work taking place.
A dedicated Customer Service Manager (CSM) will be your point of escalation and will provide updates via a quarterly review. These regular reviews will give you the extra confidence to know that your systems are always secure, up-to-date and performing at the optimal level.
