Support Service Level Agreement
AppDirect Support categorizes all tickets based on urgency. If your request is urgent, or if an existing issue becomes urgent, please contact us via phone at 833-427-7762 so we can accurately understand the issue at hand and assign resources appropriately.
Below you will find our classification criteria for Support tickets:
Classification | Criteria |
Priority 1 | Business Critical Failures: An error which prevents all useful work from being done by all users or which disables major functions from being performed by all users. |
Priority 2 | System Defect with Workaround: Either a critical error for which a work around exists or else a non-critical error that significantly affects the functionality of the product. |
Priority 3 | Benign Error: An isolated or benign error. This is an error which does not significantly affect the functionality of the product, disables only certain non-essential functions, and does not materially impact system performance. |
AppDirect will follow the Response Protocols listed below until your issue is resolved.
Classification | Acknowledgement | Update |
Priority 1 | 15 minutes > 1 hour | Every 4 hours |
Priority 2 | 2 hours | Once per day |
