Hours of Operation
The Service Desk services are available between the hours of 8:00am and 10:00pm, Monday through Friday. After Hour Support
After hours support can be provided by the Service Desk for the purpose of handling critical desktop issues needing immediate attention. Calls after 10:00pm and before 8:00am Monday through Friday, as well as the weekends, will be forwarded to an answering service. An on-call technician will respond via phone and email. The technician has a 30 minute turnaround to return the client's call.
Note: The Service Desk is not staffed 24x7. This means that tickets assigned to the Service Desk over the weekend will not be acknowledged until Monday. It also means that the Service Desk will be unavailable during major US holidays. The holiday schedule is available for download on the Partner Support Site.
