Support plan offerings

Increase efficiencies and provide a more productive work environment.

Standard support plan

The Standard support plan is the prerequisite and includes all basic-level support:

  • Solution center knowledgebase
  • Documentation
  • Data download/upload
  • License management
  • Hardware or software certification
  • Phone support
  • Web-based incident reporting

Silver support plan

The Silver support plan includes all the benefits of Standard support and provides additional value-added services such as:

  • 24x5 support coverage
  • Faster severity response commitments
  • Support collaboration environment
  • Customer care issue management

The 24x5 support coverage is designed for customers that need extended support for critical issues to maximize productivity around the clock during weekdays.

A support collaboration environment is an out-of-the-box (OOTB) product cloud environment, which is available on request for working support issues.

Customer care issue management ensures that issues tagged as business urgent are assigned to a senior support representative who oversees the issue. This designated resource works with the customer to define a communication plan and keep the customer updated until the issue is resolved.

Gold support plan

The Gold support plan extends support time and focuses on sustaining your 24x7 operations. Gold includes all Standard and Silver support services, plus:

  • 24x7 support coverage
  • Fastest severity response commitments
  • Weekend upgrade go-live support

The 24x7 support coverage is designed for customers who require uninterrupted support for critical issues by a dedicated team, including weekend requests.

Weekend upgrade go-live support is designed for customers who need special support during software rollouts or upgrade projects to confirm that technical or software issues can be quickly addressed or escalated. You can plan two rollout projects per year; all go-live blocking issues are automatically escalated.
