About support

Collab provides two yearly support contract types:

  • Standard (or office hours)
  • 24x7

Each of these contracts specifies why and when a customer can access the support line.

Note: Keep in mind which contract type your company have and if it did not expire.

 

When to use support line

Access to support line depends on the severity of the problem, time of day and contract type:

Severity Working day Non Working day
  08:00 - 19:00 [Lisbon time] 19:00 - 8:00 [Lisbon time]

24x7 24x7
Minor

Severity classification uses the following definition:

Critical (1) – Critical errors severely affect service, capacity\traffic, functionality or maintenance capabilities, and require immediate attention to its recovery.

Major (2) – Major errors with impact on system operation, maintenance and administration, etc. and require immediate attention but less urgent than in Critical situations because of a lesser immediate or impending effect on system performance, End-users, and End-user’s operation and revenue.
