    Platinum Support

    Support From the Agile ALM Experts

    CollabNet offers the most widely used application lifecycle management platform for distributed software development., backed by three support programs Silver; Gold, and Platinum on an annual or multi-year subscription basis.

    CollabNet Support provides access to ongoing product updates and patches, SaaS migrations, guaranteed response times, on-line help, knowledge bases, and more. In addition, CollabNet provides free openCollabNet Community Support which includes access to FAQs, release notes, roadmaps, user forums, documents, and more for general installation and integrations issues for all CollabNet products and services.

    The scope of this specification is to describe services provided by the Platinum Support Program.

    Support Hours

    CollabNet will provide Support 24 hours per day, 7 days per week including holidays and including weekends. Customers will be able to submit email and case requests via CollabNet’s self-service portal 24 x 7 x 365 (excluding Support Portal maintenance windows). CollabNet Support staff will have access 24 x 7 x 365 to Operations engineers responsible for ensuring hosted production site availability.

    Response Time

    CollabNet’s response time to any request for Support will be based upon the level of Support Services purchased by Customer and the severity of the case reported.

    A response will be one of the following:

    • A potential problem resolution,
    • A request for more information, which will allow CollabNet to determine the next steps towards potential problem resolution, or
    • If the issue, at CollabNet's sole discretion, requires escalation or extensive time to research, a notification of the response duration needed to provide the client contact with more information, potential workarounds, or a resolution.

    The table below outlines how CollabNet’s support policy is organized to respond to all cases and Application Defects based on their reported severity and assigned priority.

    Case Allotment

    Platinum support customers have no limitation on the number of cases filed, and  can  access support personnel for technical and functional cases 24/7.

    SLA-conforming P1 Defects are as follows

    Priority of Issue
    Initial Response Time
    P1
    1hrs

    P2
    8hrs

    P3
    24hrs

    Named Contacts

    CollabNet manages the number of customer contacts interacting with its Support Operations through named contacts that are trained on CollabNet solutions and authorized to interact with the CollabNet Support organization. Platinum support customers are allowed to identify up to 10 named contacts.

    System Monitoring and Health Management

    This section is only applicable when the Product is offered as a Service

    Regardless of the Support Program selected, a production site hosted by CollabNet is monitored 24 x 7 x 365. If the monitored services were to become unresponsive, an Operations Engineer would be paged and attend to the problem immediately.

    CollabNet will provide Platinum Support  Customers with a ninety-nine percent (99.9%) uptime guarantee for the Hosting Services.

    Tool Conversions

    For project tool conversions, either from Issue Tracking to Project Tracker or CVS to Subversion, CollabNet will perform 4 tool conversion projects included with Platinum Support. Further requests will require a Statement of Work outlining required work, schedule, and financial consideration.

    Additional Support Offerings for Lab Management

    Platinum Support Services customers will be offered the following optional services at an additional charge: (a) advanced disaster recovery services (duplication of nodes in approved disaster recovery facility); (b) creation of additional profile libraries through customized Professional Services; and (c) a Personal Support Admin (PSA) to serve as a dedicated resource for review and management of the account (including help with upgrades, patches & more).
