SUPPORT

Erweiterter Support (ADVANCED)

Verbesserter Support während der Geschäftszeiten mit kürzeren Reaktionszeiten

Advanced Support layers response speed and proactive services on top of Standard: a 30-minute first response on S1 critical issues, direct phone engineer access during business hours, 6 hours of annual remote assistance, and one annual comprehensive health and security audit.

It's designed for teams running active production environments — including customer-facing applications — that don't yet need 24/7 coverage. Without going to the top tier on SLA, it creates a marked service-quality gap above Standard.

WARUM ADVANCED

Warum Advanced Support wählen?

Advanced Support keeps the core capabilities of Standard but accelerates response times by up to 2×, and adds phone access, an annual health audit, and remote assistance hours. It's designed for teams where Premium / Elite isn't required yet but Standard is becoming insufficient.

30-Minute First Response

On S1 critical issues, a 30-minute first response (vs. Standard's 60) and 60-minute technical engagement. When production pressure hits, the wait window is cut in half.

Phone Engineer Access (Business Hours)

On top of the web portal and email, a direct engineer phone line during business hours. The practical way to resolve complex topics without losing them in a written request chain.

Annual Comprehensive Health Audit

Once a year, system performance, security posture, configuration drift, and capacity trends are reviewed. Findings arrive as an actionable recommendation report to your team.

6 Hours of Annual Remote Assistance, Included

Remote technical assistance — not in the Standard scope — comes with Advanced: a yearly 6-hour block for engineers to connect to your system for configuration, tuning, and issue resolution.

ANWENDUNGSFÄLLE

Wer benötigt Advanced Support?

Advanced Support is designed for teams running active production environments without 24/7 availability needs, looking for guaranteed faster response during business hours.

Business-hour customer-facing production

Customer portals, B2B applications, and internal tool layers used during working hours. Weekend / overnight traffic is low.

Mid-sized enterprise infrastructure

Growing user counts and multi-application portfolios — teams where overnight criticality hasn't yet moved to Premium / Elite.

Upgrading from Standard

Teams where Standard is becoming insufficient — looking for in-hours phone access and an annual health audit.

Teams wanting proactive visibility

Organizations that want an annual independent assessment of the system from capacity and security angles.

OPTIONAL ADD-ONS

Services You Can Layer on Top of Advanced Support

The Advanced scope may not cover every scenario. Onsite engineer, additional remote assistance hours, and accelerated hardware replacement (RMA) are optional services licensed separately to your needs.

Onsite Support

A certified engineer comes to your site — five packages from one-off visits to twice-monthly visits: OnSite-1, 4, 6, 12, 24.

Remote Connection Hours

Pre-purchased remote assistance blocks added on top of the 6 hours included with Advanced: 1, 10, 20, 40, and 80 hour options.

Hardware Replacement (RMA)

RMA speed options: standard, priority (1 week), express (next business day), critical (same-day shipping), or onsite (4-hour onsite at Tier-1 locations).

Add-on services are licensed separately. They can be layered on top of your Advanced package and renew along with the contract term.
