  PRONTOS TECHNOLOGIES      TIME & MATERIALS SUPPORT PRODUCT

 

 

GENERAL PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The TIME & MATERIALS SUPPORT PRODUCT ("T&M") provides the customer with support resources as requested and as managed by the customer. The T&M product allows the customer maximum control over their support needs.

The T&M service product level is primarily for customers who are hobbyists; or customers who are technically proficient enough to manage their own technical support risks.
 

DESCRIPTION

The T&M product is for all services not covered under a Software Support Service Agreement.
 

AVAILABILITY

 The T&M product is available during regular business hours of 9am to 5pm, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

Unlike an "SSS" contractual support agreement,
the T&M Service Product does not express, imply,
nor represent in any measure, a
contracted commitment to the availability of the product,
 nor to any specified response time.

Contracted support customers and prior commitments take precedence over T&M product service requests.

Should emergency T&M support be required, services
may be available on a per incident EMERGENCY RESPONSE UPGRADE basis.
