Portal/Email responses are my main concerns. Let’s pickup a phone call and start working. We open case because we have exhausted our internal resources and definitely requires your attention. At this time; support should try and get a phone call going with client rather going through multiple portal case updates.

So far, it's good as part of my overall experience, except for a couple of use cases. The support team is well knowledgeable, has technical sound, and is efficient. When support escalates to engineering, the issue gets stuck and takes months to resolve.

Platform support is great. Development support if you are developing your own dynamic apps (like the product is touted for) is non-existent without paying for PS time.This is something that SL has needed to address for years but has not.

the Support dont have any SLA defined. more over for some actual high critical issues, it take them days to provide 1st response and even with the 1st response, it is never any solution but just another bunch of queries. whatever the criticality, support don't call you for troubleshooting and try to reply with mail trails and you have to seek and ask for webex sessions quite a lot times to get one. though engineer are polite but responce time is very poor.

The only problems that aren't solved tend to be defects that get assigned to engineering to be addressed in future builds. Sometimes non-urgent issues can take a long time to be properly addressed, but anything causing us impact to our ability to provide for our customers is taken care of by support rather quickly.

In some cases and depending on the support representative support is good, but in general, it requires customer management of the case vs. vendor management of the cases....like pulling teeth... time-consuming, etc, etc. Also want to comment that this applies to the Technical Support Group and the PSO Group at ScienceLogic. Support appears to be degrading over the past few years vs getting better and I suspect this is a result of structural changes in support group e.g. off-shoring/subcontract support. The roll-out of a new case management system and self-support tool made obtaining support much more difficult.
