Technical Support provided by IDEAL Software
IDEAL Software’s technical support policy:
As a general rule, IDEAL Software will provide free standard support for questions, which can be answered quickly (i.e. in less than 5 minutes and without further mail traffic).
For broad premium support it is possible to acquire Support Units. Premium Support is provided by our Software Developers! One Support Unit equals 5 minutes of working time. For each support inquiry at least 2 Support Units are charged.
You can acquire a multiple of 12 Support Units, the price for 12 Support Units is EUR 150,-
With every support inquiry please provide us your support account number. With every support incident we will notify you by e-mail about the charges to your support account as well as your final account balance.
Questions related to bugs in VPE are always free, if your inquiry should indeed be related to a bug in VPE. You are only charged for "how-to" questions, questions that are covered in the documentation, questions related to misuse of VPE or questions related to bugs in printer drivers or other third party software.
The transmission of a lost license key is charged with two Support Units.
