DataOps.live Support Service Level Agreement for Customers
DataOps.live offers standard support to its customers based on the response time guidelines indicated in the Response Time Table below. DataOps.live addresses problem resolutions through several mechanisms, including defining workarounds, developing patches, or through an upcoming generally available software release based on issue severity and priority.
