  • advice on technical use of the app via our support portal;

  • video support meetings which you can book through our booking channel; and/or

as specified or linked to from the app info page.

Additional assistance beyond support that is included in the fee, will take place on a time and material basis.

We may adjust our support channels from time to time at our sole discretion upon notice on app info page.

4.2 Maintenance

The app is maintained, improved and updated from time to time, unless the app is marked as end-of-life, retired or other indication of end of maintenance or intended use. We are happy if you help us improve. Your reported bugs, disruptions and feature suggestions help us make the app even better.

4.3 Service level agreement («SLA»)

Please see the app info page and your agreement to learn if and what support is included.

Since software is complex, errors can take time to fix. Our SLA must therefore not be mistaken for guaranteed resolution times or error free software. However, we always strive to fix critical issues as fast as reasonable possible.

To provide the most efficient response, we prioritize the reported issues according to severity and impact. Our priority levels are divided into three tiers:

Incident priority 1 (P1): High urgency. Licensee is unable to operate the app, creating substantial business disruptions.

Incident priority 2 (P2): Medium urgency. A major component of your ability to operate the app is affected or significantly slowed down.

Incident priority 3 (P3): Low urgency. The issue is inconvenient and annoying, but the main functions of the app is still operational.

To be able to balance our overall support task load, we do the above categorizing at our sole discretion.

Our SLA table below illustrates the service level metrics that Kantega tracks for the app, if not otherwise specified in the agreement or on the app info page:

Incident priority

Support hours*

Response time

P1

08:30-17:00

P2

08:30- 17:00

within 1-4 business days

P3

08:30- 17:00

within 5 business days

*Business hours are Central European Time (CET).

The app’s uptime target is 99,5 % measured per calendar month, not calculating downtime caused by circumstances outside our control, such as user fault and modification of the app, end-of-life of app is reached, platform and hardware errors, down-time of integrated apps, previous version of app is used, data connection or data centre failure, cyber-attacks, service windows (see app info page) or force majeure.
