We are here to help you resolve issues with your environment. When you make a support request, we will work with you to understand the actual issue you are trying to solve and may recommend a better course of action.

For the best support experience, we recommend you register for our support portal. The portal is our preferred method for raising a support ticket, and it will allow you to view all tickets in your organisation quickly and easily. 

You can also email support@dataweavers.com to request support.

How do I register for the support portal?

  1. Click on Sign in in the top right-hand corner of this page, then click on the link to Sign up.

  2. Fill out the form with your name and email address and we’ll send you a welcome email so you can verify your email address and sign in.
