-
Dealer provides first-line/Tier 1 support for its End Customers. If Dealer cannot resolve an issue, or in the event of more serious issues set forth herein, Dealer may contact Company’s support team. Accordingly the terms of this Section 10 apply to the relationship of Company with Dealer (i.e. with you if you are a Dealer, or with your Dealer if you are not) in regard to resolving issues with the Application. The Service Levels set forth in this Section 10 apply only to a Dealer with a valid Subscription/License to the Application, and to issues with the Application itself, not to issues with End Customer’s overall security system. For example and illustrative purposes only, Company is not responsible to assist with your network configurations, your firewall, your specific configurations within the Application, your third-party hardware or software not provided by Company, etc.
-
Dealer is responsible for reporting Application issues, including the severity of the issue in accordance with the definitions below. Company shall endeavor to make initial contact following the report of an issue in accordance with the Response Times set forth in the table below, with more serious impacts being given higher priority. It is commonly understood between the parties that the Dealer will determine the service request priority and, when a request is submitted as a high-priority issue, a designated contact at Dealer shall be made available to work with Company’s support team while Company addresses the issue. The following guidelines will assist Dealer in determining the appropriate priority level.
-
GENERAL RULES
-
For all cases, the issue must be reproducible by Company in order for Company to attempt to resolve the issue. Some issues are caused by things outside of Company’s control or that are unique to End Customer’s system, which are not issues with the Application itself. Company is not responsible to resolve such issues.
-
Company’s support team does not enhance or develop custom solutions.
-
For Priority 1 and 2 issues, if the Dealer is unable to provide a resource to assist Company throughout the target Response Time, the Priority Level for the support issue will be downgraded.
-
-
TARGET RESPONSE TIMES
Severity of issue
Target Response Time
Priority 1
Within one day receiving the report
Priority 2
Within one business days receiving the report
Priority 3
Within 3 business days receiving the report
-
SEVERITY DEFINITIONS
The following descriptions of priority levels are guidelines only. Unique circumstances not specifically set forth in the following guidelines may warrant an issue being treated as a different priority level than identified by Dealer.
-
PRIORITY 1 – The problem results in extremely serious interruptions to an End Customer's access to the Application and has affected, or could affect, the entire End Customer’s security system connected to the service. Tasks that should be executed immediately cannot be executed because of a complete crash of the Application, or by interruptions in main functions of the Application. Data integrity is compromised. The service request requires immediate processing, as the problem can compromise End Customer’s overall security system.
-
PRIORITY 2 – The problem results in serious interruptions to normal operations, or the issue negatively impacts an enterprise-wide security system. In a security system, important tasks and controls cannot be performed, but the error does not impair essential operations. Site controllers can still continue their independent functionalities in a restricted manner. Data integrity may potentially be at risk. The service request requires timely processing, as the malfunction could cause serious interruptions to critical processes or negatively impact security system.
-
PRIORITY 3 – The problem results minimal or no interruptions to normal operations. It does not prevent operation of a system, or else there is minor degradation in performance. The error is attributed to malfunctioning or incorrect behavior of the Application.
-
PRIORITY OF ISSUES ARISING IN TEST ENVIRONMENTS – Identical issues that arise in a test environment shall normally justify a priority that is one level lower than the equivalent priority in a production environment. If an End Customer or Dealer discovers an issue in a test environment (vs. in production), the priority of the issue will be downgraded.
-
