Quick Resolution Knowledgeable team Kept well informed Immediate help available Support cares about my success | Poor followup Problems left unsolved Need to explain problems multiple times Slow Initial Response |

Yes - it was resolved, but the day of the event which was nerve-wracking.
We needed help understanding how we would add an extra layer of our own video feed & our project manager did 2 trial runs with us to ensure it worked properly!
