Note: The target "response" time should not be confused with a "resolution" time. Resolution for a complex technical problem may require significantly more time than the targets set for response. The response targets are based on when the case has been submitted.

Support Case Method

Advantage, Premium and Elite Support Packages comes with unlimited support cases. A case is the ability to contact Intlock support directly for technical assistance. Your Support Package determines the method type (e.g. web support or phone), and how many environments are covered.

  • Remote - Phone, email or desktop sharing

  • On-site - Requires a technical consultant to arrive at the site

 

Support Case Process

Intlock is committed to resolving customer problems quickly and professionally. You can expect when you contact Intlock support:

  • Every product request will be logged into the support system and is be accessible to all technical support team members.

  • The technical support team assigns case priority based, in part, on the severity level that has been indicated.

  • After reasonable troubleshooting, an unresolved case will be escalated directly to the engineering department for full resolution.

Note: Enhancement and bug requests also funnel in through the same ticketing process. Typical resolution for enhancements will be bugs filed with Engineering who will work with the Support team to provide target release dates. You can always check enhancement and bug statuses by viewing our product roadmap.
