SLA - Website Support

This is a Service Level Agreement (SLA) between Plaudit and Client, and is applicable to the service defined in an active SOW that references this page by URL. The services and support this applies to depends on that SOW, but is normally scoped to a specified number of hours for a specific website.

Service Hours

Service hours are weekdays from 9am to 5pm CST, excluding company holidays.

Opening a Request

Requests may be made by submitting a ticket, emailing, or calling Plaudit. Opening a ticket by going to support.plaudit.com or by emailing support@plaudit.com is recommended since timeframes are only applicable once a ticket exists in the ticket system. Please note that, for example, emailing an individual at Plaudit vs opening a ticket may introduce a delay (e.g. the person emailed is in a meeting or on vacation).
