Coiled Support and Maintenance Terms

These Coiled Support Terms sets forth the term and conditions upon which Coiled will provide Support to Customers who have paid for a subscription to Coiled Cloud, Coiled Pro, or Coiled Enterprise.

Section One: Support and Maintenance

Customer will designate support personnel who are knowledgeable about the Products to be responsible for reporting Errors and receiving and distributing Error corrections. Coiled’s support team representatives will record all Error reports and coordinate responses. Customer may submit Error reports electronically. Customer may also request electronic status reports on reported Errors online or via e-mail. Coiled and Customer will cooperate in efforts to resolve reported Errors. For all reproducible reported Errors, Coiled will assign a tracking or ticket number, will work to determine the source of the Errors and will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide a Fix, by-pass or Work-around according to the timeframes described in the Support Levels section below. Coiled may request that the Customer duplicate the Error, instruct Coiled how to duplicate the Error or provide problem log dumps, diagnostic tests or other investigative support. Customer will provide all reasonably requested information to assist in arriving at a problem solution. In cases where Coiled determines in its sole discretion that an Error in the standard Product has been identified by Customer, Coiled will use commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to provide a temporary resolution, and where appropriate, to provide a permanent fix to the standard Product within a commercially reasonable timeframe according the terms of the Support Levels section below.

Coiled may determine based on the information provided by Customer or through its own investigation that identified Errors were caused by non-Coiled hardware, software, customizations, or from unauthorized modifications to Products (a “Customer Error”). In the event of a Customer Error, Coiled will either, at its sole discretion, close the ticket without fixing the Customer Error or ask the Customer if it would like Coiled to attempt to fix the Customer Error. If Customer and Coiled agree that Coiled will attempt to fix a Customer Error (though Coiled is under no obligation to do so), Coiled will bill Customer for such efforts on a time and materials basis, even if Coiled is unable to fix the Customer Error.
