As the De Facto Standard for Data Erasure and Mobile Diagnostics solutions, Blancco offers our customers and partners several tailored support options, providing timely resolution for technical issues and inquiries.
Our Customer Portal (https://support.blancco.com), provides access to our Knowledge Base, Product Release News, Whitepapers, FAQ’s, Best Practices and the ability to access our Support Ticketing System for the creation and management of product issues. Customers and Partners are encouraged to use the Customer Portal for timely resolution. For any Sev-1 issues, it is recommended that Customers and Partners call our Support Team, listed on page 9. You can also create a support incident by sending us an email at support@blancco.com, whereas a reply will be automatically generated with your ticket number in subject line.
Blancco may, at any time, modify the Support Policy and Procedures to reflect market conditions and to better serve our customers.
Blancco provides support coverage worldwide, with locations strategically distributed to provide support in 7 different languages: English / German / Spanish / French / Finnish / Japanese / Chinese. We leverage a multi-tiered support organization to ensure adequate coverage of all issues from customers/partners, including succession planning for each of our valued resources.
All support issues that are raised, are tracked with a unique “incident” number. All incidents are logged at one of our three main regions (Americas / EMEA / APAC), during local office hours. The assigned Support Analyst/Engineer is your point of contact until a resolution is found. Our Support Team leverages their extensive product knowledge and experience, as well as Blancco’s internal resource framework, to manage the incidents through to resolution in a timely manner.
Blancco support operations are designed to meet the varying needs of our clients worldwide, across industries and time zones. Each support plan offers unique features and resources tailored for your business requirements.
The Initial Human Response is computed based on the time when the incident is entered into our ticketing system and not when an email is sent to us. All references relate to business hours. The Initial Human Response is defined as any of the following:
The Enterprise Support Plan will include a nominated Technical Account Manager from the Support Team. The role of the TAM is to offer a designated senior Technical resource, providing proactive advice and guidance to help you identify and address any potential problems before they occur. The TAM has direct communication with key internal departments within Blancco, to serve as the voice of the customer/partner.
Benefits of TAM:
Full access available to all Knowledge Base items from the Blancco Customer Support Portal:
In some cases, Blancco may request and provide the ability to establish a temporary remote connection in order to identify root cause and corrective action (RCCA) of an issue.
The following section describes important topics we encourage our customers/partners to consider, in order to expedite the resolution of new Support issues. Support’s actions include environment discovery, problem description, issue investigation, reproduction attempts and resolution. Based on these investigations, Support may provide technical explanations, instructions for configuration changes, workarounds, and in some cases software updates and hot-fix releases.
It is recommended that customers/partners submit a Blancco incident request, using the appropriate channels listed below, based on the Severity (product) and Priority (customer impact). An automated response with a unique incident request number will be immediately emailed to you for your reference.
When submitting a Support request, please refer to the severity classification table below. Blancco will work with you to make a reasonable and conclusive determination of the severity level of the issue, and respond in accordance. Contact request methods are recommended.
