Support services is limited to addressing problems in the use and function of our products. If use of our products fails due to issues related to another system (i.e. Salesforce.com, a payment gateway, etc), our scope of support services will be limited to assisting in the identification of the problem or ruling out our products as the cause of the problem.

We’re also happy to answer questions about the weather, banjoleles, and burritos.
