Response Time

Response time is not a commitment of the time to restore normal operations but is a commitment to have a service engineer engage with intentions to restoring the unit to normal operations. Snap Server offers 7x4PST support next business day response Monday-Friday excluding national and company holidays.

​

Onsite Support

For Gold and Silver support models in which the customer’s product is geographically located within a supported authorized Snap Server Service Partner, the on-site response time is measured from the time of Snap Server or the authorized Snap Server Service Partner’s determination of hardware failure until a technician arrives onsite. Parts are shipped within 2 business days. The Snap Server Service Partner under normal circumstances will be onsite within 1 business day after receiving parts.

​

Determination of Problem and Service Standards

Many issues can be resolved over the telephone. The availability of a technically capable end-user to work with our Technical Support team can affect the time required to resolve a problem. Snap Server or its approved Service Partner will perform all services in a professional manner and will whenever on the end-user site obey all reasonable instructions, standards, procedures, and requests issued by the end-user.

Service Level Agreements exclude Snap Server designated holidays. An additional service charge will be payable to the customer for support requests occurring on these designated holidays. Fees for service performed on Snap Server designed holidays will be at the rate of the Snap Server approved Service Partner and will be payable by the customer directly. Customers agree to promptly pay an invoice received for such services.
