The rpmsOnline.com support concept has been designed to ensure that customers receive the most appropriate and cost effective support given their skills and experience.
For the purpose of rpmsOnline.com support, the following support call types are defined:
Types of Support
Support Call – Type “Normal”
Any assistance required over and above the available Help and Training resources to resolve a problem. It is assumed that the system is being used by a competent and fully trained person.
The rpmsOnline.com support team will attend to the support call on a best effort basis as soon as possible.
Support Call – Type “Paid”
Support is classified as PAID support when:
– Assistance is required by an inexperienced user or a user who had no training
– Assistance is required to correct a mistake made by a user
– Assistance is required related to incorrect or incomplete data entered by the user
– Assistance is required related to a business process (i.e. Renewal Management)
– Assistance is required related to a platform or browser or internet connectivity issue
Paid Support will be billed in 30 minute increments at R 150 / increment.
The rpmsOnline.com support team will attend to the support call on a best effort basis as soon as possible.
Support Call – Type “Bug”
When a rpmsOnline.com problem is reported that can be replicated / simulated and cannot be attributed to a data or user related problem, it will be recorded as a known rpmsOnline.com Bug. Bugs will be categorised and dealt with as follows:
Impact: High
These bugs have a direct impact on the business operations of the customer. The rpmsOnline.com support team will endeavour to provide a work around within 24 hours and a final fix within 7 days.
Impact: Medium
These bugs have an indirect impact on the business operations of the customer. The rpmsOnline.com support team will endeavour to provide a work around within 48 hours and a final fix within 14 days.
Impact: Low
These bugs are normally cosmetic in nature and have little to no impact on the customer business operations. The rpmsOnline.com support team will endeavour to fix these bugs as part of the next major release, normally every 3 to 6 months.
Support Plans
Support plans are paid for on a monthly basis and entitles the support plan user to 2 hours PAID support per month. The advantage of buying a Support Plan is that it is more cost effective and has a higher priority than normal support. Support Plans are available in increments of 2 hours at an hourly rate of R 150 / hour. For example:
2 hour Support Plan – R 300 / month (R 600 of PAID support – you save R 300 / month)
4 hour Support Plan – R 600 / month (R 1 200 of PAID support – you save R 600 / month)
6 hour Support Plan – R 900 / month (R 1 800 of PAID support – you save R 900 / month)
The rpmsOnline.com support team will endeavour to resolve support calls logged under a support plan within 2 business days. Normal support is done on a best effort basis.
Calls logged under Support Plans are accounted for in 15 minute increments (Normal Support is accounted for in 30 Minute increments). Support exceeding the amount of available support for the month will be billed in 30 minute increments at R 150 increment. Customers will have the option to upgrade their support plan to the next level if and when required.
Support Process
It is important to consult the available resources before logging a call.
There are Step by Step guides, video tutorials, case studies and release notes that explain in detail how to use the system. These resources are stored under the Help menu function.
You can engage the RPMS Support Team as follows:
– By logging a Support Call directly from rpmsOnline.com (preferred method)
– By logging a Support Call via E Mail to support@rpmsonline.com
– By logging a Support Call via Skype (See Skype address details on signatures)
Please note that you cannot call the office for support. A call needs to be logged for all support requests. This is to treat all support calls on a first logged, first serviced basis.
When a support call is received via any of the methods above, the call will be logged by the attending support engineer. In order to get the best possible service, it is important to include the following information when logging the call:
– Your Name and Role in the organisation
– The Name of the Property that you were working on when experiencing the problem
– Exactly what you were trying to do when the problem occurred
– The symptoms of the problem in as much detail as possible
– Any questions / issues that you would like to have resolved
The support engineer will contact you when he starts working on the call and when additional clarification is required. Alternatively, he will advise what workaround can be used and when the problem will be fixed.
Emergency Telephone Support
Should you require emergency support, you can call the office on 021-913 6107. Please note that all Emergency Support (excluding calls related to Bugs) will be billed to the customer account at a rate of
R 100 / 15 minute increment or part there-of.
The rpmsOnline.com Customer Representative
In order to streamline the communication process, the customer must appoint one of its administrators as the rpmsOnline.com Customer Representative. The Customer Representative will be copied in on all Support Call correspondence and will be responsible to assist in the identification of training gaps. The rpmsOnline.com support team will also communicate important information such as New Release updates and scheduled system maintenance to the Customer Representative, who will then be responsible to ensure that this information is distributed correctly in the customer organisation.
New Personnel
From time to time new personnel will be joining the customer organisation. If these people are going to use the system, they need to be trained. Support calls from new untrained users will be handled as Paid Support Calls and will either be billed or accounted for against any existing Support Plan.
rpmsOnline.com Training Resources
rpmsOnline offers formal training as well as informal Skype training. The formal training courses are presented in three hour sessions at R 600 per session excluding any Travelling and Accommodation where required.
