Technical Support Scope
Here we outline the scope of our technical support.
We offer in-scope technical support and three levels of out-of-scope service support.
Conexlink Support for MyCloudIT
We provide basic technical support to ensure the MyCloudIT platform and underlying infrastructure are operating smoothly. These items are outlined below as in-scope support and provided at no charge. We do provide technical support for out-of-scope items, on a per-request basis, at an additional charge as outlined below.
We will update these terms from time to time as our support policies evolve. We will always work hard to provide you the best MyCloudIT experience.
Technical support policies last updated on September 7, 2017.
MyCloudIT Knowledge Base
For many of the in-scope and out-of-scope items outlined we provide how-to articles and videos to triage the issue and solve it yourself. We are constantly adding to this knowledge base to ensure you have supporting documentation to fix common issues or leverage best practices to optimize your MyCloudIT experience.
