Best-in-class Support Program to
Extend Your Software Investment.
Our multi-faceted support program extends your software investments through open, online access to customer-shared and industry-leading best-practices, BigMachines product tools and support information, and a collaborative network of customers.
BigMachines includes support as part of your subscription services. Support is designed to boost your success by helping you quickly resolve any questions and issues, in addition to sharing best practices across the BigMachines customer community.
Share Best Practices Across the BigMachines Community.
Login to the BigMachines Support Centre for All of Your Support Needs.
A key component of our customer support program is the BigMachines online Support Centre, providing you with a single point of entry to a repository of support information and tools, as well as an interactive community to share best practices and drive innovation in product design and development.
The online Support Centre includes innovative, web-based community applications including My BigIdea, an interactive forum where customers can submit their own ideas for product enhancements. Using My BigIdea, other customers can view the suggestions, add their own comments, and vote on the ideas they would like to see implemented. Your input is valuable to us and is closely monitored.
BigMachines' Product Management team reviews these ideas as they plan and prioritise product roadmaps.
