Case Logging:
Email Support
Service maintenance which includes maintenance releases, enhancements, new versions, additions, and modifications to the Service that it provides to all other customers under support for no additional fee.
Response: For the avoidance of doubt, the meaning of a response will include an acknowledgment of the Customer's initial email stating that a query has been raised and shall not necessarily mean a resolution.
Bug fixes bring the Service into substantial conformance with its then-current user guide.
The response time is measured from the time the request was received.
2-Step Resolution Process:
Email support: Incoming written request reporting the user’s issue:
-
A ticket is opened at the moment when the support request is received via email or chat;
-
The requester receives a first notification that the request has been taken in charge;
-
The next available Client Experience Manager will take over the request to provide the needed support or determine the error.
-
If further details are needed for a faster resolution, a support video call will be offered to the requester.
-
A closing email announcing the resolution is sent to the requester.
If support can’t solve the issue, it’s escalated:
-
A ticket is opened; it contains the ID session number and relevant technical details for issue reproduction;
-
An engineer is assigned to the case to determine and correct the error;
-
Work is initiated to correct the error;
-
A resolution or workaround is usually provided within 72 hours which allows at a minimum for the affected coachee to keep progressing in his/her coaching program.
