Cases & Issues
When users contact Customer Support, a case will be entered into our Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system resulting in a unique case number. This case number will be given to the customer and will be left open until the inquiry is answered or the issue is resolved. Each time a user contacts Support with a different question or issue, a new case will be entered into the CRM system and the corresponding case number will be issued to the customer.
When you contact support, regardless of reason, we will log a Case.
When you email support, you will receive an automated email about the Case creation with the case number.
If you encounter what is determined to be a bug, we will log a defect and attach it to your Case so that you will be notified when the issue is resolved.
