  3. Response SLA

    For each case, the Asgardeo Customer Success Team endeavors to respond and to achieve the closure of the case as quickly as possible and to provide frequent updates to the subscriber regarding the progress of the case.

    The applicable Response SLA depends on the support subscription that you have subscribed for. There are two levels of support, Basic Support and Enterprise Support. Basic Support applies to the customers who have purchased a paid subscription and chosen the Basic Support Plan. Enterprise Support applies to the customers who have purchased a paid subscription and chosen the Enterprise Support Plan. Customers using the free and non paid version will have access to community support and not Basic Support or Enterprise support.

    Response SLA applies to the production Tenant of the Asgardeo platform only. All cases related to non-production tenants & environments are considered low priority (P4) cases.
