Support Features Explained

  • Stratodesk NoTouch Updates: Via the customer portal, customers can access the latest Stratodesk NoTouch software updates. As software updates are released, the latest versions and knowledge base documentation will be made available.
  • Web-Based Support: Customers have access to Stratodesk technical resources via the knowledge base, customer and community portals – speeding time to resolution for implementation and/or operational issues. 
  • Email-Based Support: Stratodesk technical support specialists are available via email. To initiate a timely and interactive support exchange, customers simply email their support tickets.
  • Scheduled Phone and Remote Support: Stratodesk schedules callback and/or remote access sessions at a time that works best for both Stratodesk support specialists and our customers. Screen Sharing, as well as other methods to grant control to Stratodesk personnel during the remote session, may be required in order to allow Stratodesk support specialists to work interactively with customers and provide expedited diagnostic and incident resolution. To qualify for these options, customers must maintain the appropriate level of support. 
  • Post-Deployment Onboarding Session: Available at the Gold and Platinum levels, the post-deployment onboarding session is a one-to-two-hour remote knowledge transfer session focused on getting users set up in the customer portal as well as educating authorized users on best practices for their preferred VDI/DaaS environment. 
  • Priority Escalation: Stratodesk maintains formal prioritization of service tickets and escalation procedures, including coordinating incident escalation to ensure the appropriate level of expertise is being utilized for a timely response. For built-in third-party products, Stratodesk will coordinate with the customer and the third party to assist with resolution. Priority Escalation from Stratodesk is defined as first submitting a case through Standard Support; once submitted, cases will be reviewed and then assigned the appropriate level of engineering resources based on support level. This does not ensure resolution nor include development, professional services or feature requests, but will be provided as a best practice response to return to normal operation. 
  • Designated Support Contact: An assigned, named individual to act as the primary point of contact for support needs.
  • Quarterly Technical Review: Inform customers of new features, discuss future customer initiatives and projects and review best practices procedures to ensure that the value of the solution is being maximized.
  • Incident Analysis: Stratodesk will work with customers to review cases in order to identify what possible conditions or events that may have caused the original support incident. This aids customers in mitigating these issues in order to improve future operations.
  • Number of Appointed Customer Contacts: Customers shall appoint a specific number of employees (as allocated to Customer based on the Customer’s purchased support plan tier) who shall gain access to the customer portal and – in the case of Platinum Support customers – gain access to the Stratodesk Designated Support Contact. 

Critical issues: are defined as those severely impacting a customer’s business who is using Stratodesk NoTouch OS within a production environment. The resulting impact halts the customer’s business operations with no functional workaround. For example, large groups of devices lose functionality due to profile change or the inability to manage due to the loss of Stratodesk NoTouch Center functionality.
