Maven App Services Technical Support Guidelines

The following technical support services guidelines (“Guidelines“) apply to support services during the Term of the applicable Customer Agreement and corresponding Maven App Schedule (the “Agreement”) as entered into by and between Maven Wave Partners, LLC (“Maven Wave”) and Customer.

Support Request Submission

  1. General. Customer may submit Requests by phone or email.
  2. Customer Efforts to Fix Errors. Prior to making a Request to Maven Wave, Customer will use reasonable efforts to fix any error, bug, malfunction or network connectivity defect without escalation to Maven Wave. Thereafter, a Customer Contact may submit a written request for technical support via phone or email.
  3. Characterization of Requests. Customers designate Priority upon submission of Requests. Upon receiving a request from Customer Contact, Maven Wave will determine whether the request is a “Critical,” “High”, “Medium”,  or “Low” as defined below.[ table here ]Any such determination made by Maven Wave is final and binding on Customer. Maven Wave reserves the right to change Customer’s Priority designation if Maven Wave believes that Customer’s designation is incorrect and will inform Customer of any such change in its response to the support Request. Customer may appeal any such reclassification to Maven Wave’s Support management for review through any available support channel.
