Contacting CaptureBites Support

In all Cases, CaptureBites requires the Customer contacting Technical Support to be fully trained on the use of the product. In addition, the CaptureBites Technical Support team validates the coverage of all product licenses by a current Support Agreement.

CaptureBites Partners are required to provide First Line support where the Customer chooses to work with the Partner as the primary supplier of the CaptureBites products. The Partner is expected to provide assistance in answering software installation, configuration, or usage questions; initial error information gathering; error isolation and identification; describing a reproducible test and providing standard fixes or workarounds to known problems.

CaptureBites Technical Support provides Second Line support. This includes, but is not limited to, further assistance with the tasks described in the previous paragraph. This may include a workaround or require the Customer to install an update or upgrade to the latest Product Release.
If required, CaptureBites Second Line support includes contacting CaptureBites Development for diagnostic assistance.
