Support and Premium Support.
Standard SupportQontext provides private community support through Qontext Support
Group (an internal group on the Qontext portal, with Qontext support staff
being guests limited to only that group). In contrast to public forums, this
exclusive feature protects users inadvertently disclosing any proprietary
information to outsiders.
Users use this Qontext Support Group as the Primary channel for contact
with support. Users can check information on Qontext Support Group to
explore reported/resolved issues or submit new support requests. Qontext
must be provided adequate information and access needed to reproduce,
debug and correct software problems reported by users. Such informationcould include steps resulting in the issue, error messages, screen captures,
etc.

beyond forum support included in standard license. Priority Support
includes unlimited email and phone incidents with phone support available
from 9am-5pm IST. All support will be provided in English.

for organizations to fully benefit from the hosted service. Premium Support
comes with unlimited email, phone incidents and highest level of customer
care 24x7. All support will be provided in English.

where users are shown to self-service knowledge bases or answered by
note taking front desk agents when the phone rings. Qontext Premium
