Severity classification

DocDigitizer will use commercially reasonable efforts to meet the Response Time and Resolution Time indicated below in accordance with Severity Level and SLA for the applicable Services Level. Any new support ticket shall have the severity level initially classified by Customer, and DocDigitizer reserves the right to reclassify any support ticket in accordance with the Severity Levels defined below. Customer agrees that although DocDigitizer will use commercially reasonable efforts to meet the Response Time and Resolution Time, such times are estimated targets only.

The Resolution Time shall commence tolling once Customer has provided DocDigitizer with sufficient information to permit DocDigitizer to begin diagnosing the Problem. The Resolution Time shall be paused when DocDigitizer requests that Customer provide the data needed to verify and/or reproduce the Problem and shall resume once Customer provides the requested data. DocDigitizer reserves the right to decrease Severity Levels if Customer fails to provide access to environment or data for more than two (2) days after DocDigitizer request.

Impact on Customer’s business operations:

  • Business continuity has stopped or is severely impacted.

Scope of technical issue (if all apply):

  • DocDigitizer API is down or is inoperable and at time of raising the support ticket no Workaround exists to re-enable the system. Normal business operations are completely disrupted.
  • Impacting only production environments and production accounts; does not include any non-production systems or Trials, Demo or Proof of Concept purpose accounts.

  • Issues that are specific to a certain document or batch and appear infrequently enough not to have severe impact on Customer’s business operations;
  • Any degradation of extraction data quality;
