Software Service and Support

All such bug fixes, updates and version upgrades are deemed to be Licensed Product(s) hereunder, subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Master Software Subscription Agreement.
Software support is provided via Evisions Customer Community and via In-App Chat. Evisions Customer Community support requests and chat are monitored during normal business hours (Monday – Friday, 5:00 AM – 5:00 PM PT, some exclusions apply). Support includes remote troubleshooting, instruction for the use and operation of the Licensed Product(s) by way of online user manuals, white papers, case studies, release guides and on-line tutorials. Client will also have access to knowledge articles on the Evisions Customer Community for answers to common problems that may arise. Evisions and Licensee may mutually agree upon the provision of custom professional services to be provided for an additional fee. To obtain software support, Client shall submit a support request through the Evisions Customer Community, with verifiable and reproducible evidence of problem, questions, or requests for assistance. Client will cooperate and work closely with Evisions in conducting diagnostic and/or troubleshooting activities as requested.
Upon receipt of a support request, Evisions shall respond based on the priority status as noted by the Client on the request in accordance with the following status definitions:

- High – Production Critical. Reserved for issues in which the production environment is significantly impaired, but not actually down. Evisions will respond the same day the request is received (if the request is received by 4:00 pm Pacific Time of any day the help desk is open or, if received later, the next business day).
- Medium – Time Sensitive. Evisions will respond within 24 hours of the time the request is received, excluding in the computation of such 24 hours any days outside of normal business hours. (For example, if such a request is received at 1:00 pm on a Friday, Evisions will respond by 1:00 pm on the following Monday, if such Monday is within normal business hours.)
- Low – Non Essential Timeline. Evisions will respond within 48 hours of the time the request is received, excluding in the computation of such 48 hours any days during which the help desk is not open. (For example, if such a request is received at 1:00 pm on a Friday, Evisions will respond by 1:00 pm on the following Tuesday, if neither such Tuesday nor the preceding Monday is outside of normal business hours.)
