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.

What does Dataweavers provide support on?

Dataweavers provides a Service Level Agreement (SLA) for service availability and performance at the level described within your contract. Dataweavers has in place 24x7x365 proactive website monitoring to alert our team to carry out remediation in the event of any issues to ensure that we uphold this SLA. 

We are also here to help resolve any other issues relating to the management of your underlying platform and Azure DevOps environments.

Issues relating to source code or configuration would be considered development-specific, and therefore not in the scope of Dataweavers support. We would defer these requests to your development partner or internal development team for further investigation and resolution.

Please also see article Sitecore 360 and Dataweavers for a RACI chart between Dataweavers, Sitecore360, Customer and Partner.
