Prepaid Support Services (PSS)

 

PSS offers priority labour services and support at reduced rates. By prepaying a BLOCK of time for future services, the client receives preferred service rates, is not charged for travel time, and is handled on a priority basis.

Priority means that the client is contacted within four business hours and if service is required, a technician is dispatched to arrive at their designated location within eight business hours. Only Network Support and Hardware Maintenance contracts have higher priority status than the PSS plan.

Time BLOCKS are based on units of 20, 30 and 40 hours. The larger the BLOCK of time, the less the hourly rate. As time is used it is charged against the BLOCK. When 90% of the total time has been used, the client will be contacted to review and renew the plan. There is no set time limit by which the BLOCK shall be used.

Our Services include:

  • Telephone Support and On-site Service.
  • Consultation and recommendations.
  • System Administration or management.
  • Software installation or troubleshooting.
  • Internet and Email support.
  • Anti-virus support.

The main advantages of this plan include:

  • Priority service- within four-hour response, eight hour on site.
  • Reduced service rates.
  • No charge for travel time.
  • Variety of services covered.
