Our Service Commitment

Reliable, responsive support is central to how we operate. This page outlines the standards our Texas clients can expect from us.

Response Times

We target a 15-minute average response time during covered support hours. Issues are prioritized by severity.

PriorityDescriptionTarget Response
CriticalMajor outage, business operations stopped, or active security incident.15 minutes
HighSignificant impact affecting a key system or group of users.1 hour
MediumLimited impact affecting a single user or non-critical issue.4 business hours
LowMinor issue, request, or scheduled task.1 business day

Uptime Commitment

For systems we manage and monitor, we target 99.9% uptime, excluding scheduled maintenance and circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Support Coverage

Support coverage and channels are defined by each client's plan and agreement. Covered channels may include phone, email, and live chat. After-hours or 24/7 coverage is available on applicable plans.

Proactive Monitoring and Maintenance

We monitor managed systems and perform routine maintenance to prevent issues before they cause downtime. Disruptive maintenance is scheduled during off-hours or agreed maintenance windows whenever possible.

Escalation and Exclusions

If an issue is not resolved within target timeframes, it is escalated to senior engineers and management as appropriate. Commitments do not apply to disruptions caused by events outside our control, client-caused changes, uncovered systems, third-party failures, or scheduled maintenance.
