Support covers:

  • Technical Support: Provides support for troubleshooting errors, access issues, and environmental questions. Technical support does not extend to technical issues solely with customer computer systems, servers, and devices, or any software other than Resolver’s. Support is also not provided for networks, communications, or devices not owned, controlled or managed by Resolver that are used to access our software, or for recovery of lost data due to user error. However, Support does extend to technical issues that relate to interoperability or compatibility between the software services and computer systems, devices, third-party software, or network/communication systems configured to Resolver specifications. For On Premise customers, the installation of system requirements is required prior to our team supporting your organization in the installation of our software in your environment.
  • End-User Support: Includes answering questions about how to use the software. Please note that the Support team may refer customers who require educational- or services-based information that extend beyond basic how-to questions to their Customer Success Manager.

Every Support member gets access to self-service resources, including our online Customer Portal. It provides access to:

  • The latest news, tips, and product documentation including installation guides, user manuals, and fact sheets.
  • Our knowledge base, which makes it quick and easy to find answers to common questions.
  • Training resources wiki with access to product orientations, recorded training sessions, and short how-to videos to help you build your knowledge about your product.
  • The Idea Portal to track your idea submissions, as well as vote on other ideas and discuss with the  Product team and other customers how our product should be updated.

  Free Updates & Upgrades

As a part of our ongoing commitment to enhancing our products, we regularly release new versions of our software based on feedback from our customer base.

If you're an On Premise customer, you're automatically notified when a release is available and given the option of upgrading at no additional cost. For our cloud-deployed customers, Resolver automatically upgrades you so that you're always on the latest version of our software, and experiencing the benefits of new features and functionality.
