Our Technical Support

Technical Support is as important as the reservation system itself and is your businesses reservation system insurance policy. Our technicians are available 24 hours a day 365 days a year to help you recover from a reservation system emergency. Having a valid Maintenance Plan at all times, ensures that we will be able to assist you any time an emergency occurs, as well as be able to assist with general Technical Support issues during regular business hours.

International Support

Note that international customers require internet access and an email account in order to benefit from our full range of technical support and maintenance offerings as we are unable to return calls originating outside of North America. With every new system, Digital Rez Software will provide 1-2 hours of start up training within the first 30 days of installation via phone and/or webinar in addition to the online tutorials we provide. Beyond that, clients outside the continental USA and Canada must call our regular business line during regular business hours. Please advise the receptionist that you are calling from the outside North America and require assistance from our Technical Support team. You must subscribe to our International Key Maintenance Plan in order to maintain technical support services. Call in to Customer Service on our regular line at 250-836-3555 or via email at info@digitalrez.com for more information concerning the International Key Maintenance Plan.

Basic Technical Support

Telephone and email access to our Technical Support staff is available only to Maintenance Plan subscribers. Customers who do not have an active Maintenance Plan subscription should use the Technical Support website at http://support.digitalrez.com. If you should require further Technical Support services, please call in to Customer Service at 1-800-811-5988 to subscribe to the Maintenance Plan.

Training

Training with a technician is scheduled through Customer Service at 1-800-811-5988. A remote connection into your system through programs such as LogMeIn.com, Remote Desktop, pcAnywhere, etc. is greatly recommended as this enables us to provide hands on training within your own system. Having a remote connection available on each of your reservation computers also enables our Technical Support staff to connect to your computer and quickly research and resolve issues for you. This is a great benefit to all parties involved as the amount of time required to research and resolve the issue is greatly reduced. Meaning your issues will be resolved quicker and technicians will be made available to the next issue sooner.

Remote Troubleshooting and Technical Support
