Please Check This Page First Before Requesting Support

Our new service portal (combined ticketing and knowledgebase) is now live as of 12/26/23. As access is granted please begin using this new portal for all service requests and to access our knowledgebase.

We have launched a new service portal that combines our ticketing and knowledgebase portals into one system. Access is automatically granted to all clients and their employees. By default, you will be able to log in using your Microsoft 365 account. Please use our new service portal to submit ticket requests as there are new features that will assist with automatically classifying your support requests. All knowledgebase articles will also be moving to the new service portal and will be removed from our website. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns. You may access the new service portal using the link below.
