Our support response SLA is measured as the time it takes for a suitably qualified engineer to start investigating an issue. This applies whether the incident was raised by the customer or from an automated monitoring system. SLA measurement is paused while we are trying to reach the customer to authenticate a ticket.
Priority | Maximum Response time SLA | Target Resolution Times |
1 – Critical | 30 minutes | Resolution work begins within 2 hours of notification |
2 – High | 1 hour | Resolution work begins within 4 hours of notification |
3 – Medium | 4 hours | Resolution work begins within 8 hours of notification |
4 – Low | 8 hours | Resolution work begins within 2 days of notification |
Our SLA is effective 24×7 for all Critical (P1) issues and requests. For priority 2 – 4 the SLA is effective Monday to Friday 09:00 – 18:00 excluding UK public holidays.
Please note our SLA commitments only apply to tickets logged through the Service Desk. Contacting technicians directly can result in a delay in service as they might be busy or out of office, and is excluded from SLA measurement.
Priority | Impact |
1 – Critical | The Service is completely inaccessible |
2 – High | Operation of the Services is severely degraded which causes a serious business impact or material financial loss to the Customer |
3 – Medium | A low-impact Incident or non-essential features of the Service are impaired while most major components of the Service remain functional |
4 – Low | Errors that are non-disabling or cosmetic and clearly have little or no impact on the normal operation of the service |
