Support Service Overview
To enhance our support offering we are renewing our focus on both response and resolution times, as published in our support brochures. When you log a case with Pinnacle Support a priority is assigned based on the information you have provided. Our Service Level Agreement is comprised of our response and target resolution times. We'd like to share with you how we assign a priority to a case and how our target response and resolution times are measured.

How We Prioritise Your Cases
Pinnacle Support endeavour to respond to cases based on their priority which can range from Critical (urgent attention required) to Low (general queries and advice). This is based on the impact the issue is having on your business and how many people are affected. As the case progresses it may be necessary to increase or reduce the priority as circumstances change.
Our SLA
Target Response Time*
The time from the case being logged until a Pinnacle Support consultant contacts you.
Target Resolution Time**
The time from when the case is logged until a solution is provided.
*The time is calculated based on our operational hours of 09:00 -17:30 Monday to Friday (excluding Bank Holidays). For example a call logged on Friday at 15:20 with a response on Monday at 09:15 has a response time of 2 hours 25 minutes.
**In the event that the resolution relies on a 3rd party Pinnacle Support will endeavour to supply a workaround where appropriate.
Customer Support - Case Reminders
In an ongoing effort to streamline our process and enable us to serve you more efficiently, we have introduced a process whereby we will be sending reminders from cases. These reminders will be sent when we are waiting for information to investigate your issue. We will also send reminders when we believe the case has been resolved, but we haven't received confirmation from you yet. If we do not hear back, we will begin the process of closing down the case. A new case can always be logged with the required information at www.pinnacle-online.com/log-online
