Customer Support vs. Professional Services

This knowledge base article will provide some insight when to contact Support for issues and when a Statement of Work (SOW) may be needed.

ESM Support may need to pull in additional resources to help resolve more complex issues. 

For example, simple report requests (filters, date range, etc.) can be assisted by ESM Support.

More complex report requests (additional fields/columns, formulary changes, etc.) will most likely require an SOW.

 

The below chart is an example of what is included as part of your ESM Solutions subscription fee and when a Statement of Work (SOW) will be needed.
