Technical Support Terms

Last revised: Nov 18, 2024

Support Terms Applicable to all Automation Anywhere Support Plans:

Automation Anywhere, Inc. (“AAI”) is committed to offering our global subscription customers a technical support program backed by comprehensive support plans (each a “Support Plan” and collectively, “Support Plans”). Our Support Plans are designed to help you get the assistance you need when you need it to maximize your investment in AAI. These Technical Support Terms apply to you whether you have purchased a license to our on-premise software or a subscription to our cloud-delivered services (collectively, “Products” and each a “Product”), as more particularly described below.

Customer Support Portal

You can log in to our Customer Support Portal by navigating to the link given below, or as may be updated from time to time and advised to you:

https://apeople.automationanywhere.com/sso/s/login/

To access Support, you must register on the Customer Support Portal. Once registered, you will have, among other capabilities, the ability to:

  • Search AAI knowledge articles, documentation, and forum posts to find solutions quickly.
  • Log a case and manage your support requests.
  • Share your feedback for each case relative to your support experience with our support engineers to help us continuously improve our support delivery.

Terms and Conditions

  • Response Time: Response time is the time elapsed between a problem being reported (case created) and the problem being acknowledged by a support representative to initiate support activities. For Severity 1 issues (as defined below), if available under your Support Plan, please call our support team after opening the case to help ensure the best response.
  • Designated Contacts: Access to the Customer Support Portal is limited to your designated contacts, as set out in your Support Plan. This allows for a centralized and efficient communication channel for internal IT or CoE teams to support their end users. AAI does not provide support directly to end-users. It is assumed that a trained customer internal IT and/or CoE team supports end-users directly, triaging between bot configuration errors and/or customer infrastructure issues before engaging with AAI support by opening a case. To this end, the designated contact should ensure no customer-side systems, network connectivity, customer applications, database provisioning, access permission, internal security, maintenance, or other customer infrastructure issues causing the problem. When opening a case, your designated contacts will evaluate the Severity Level definitions below and, in good faith, will set the appropriate Severity Level for the case. AAI reserves the right to assess the selected Severity Level and confirm or recategorize it, with or without prior notification.
  • If AAI cannot apply a permanent fix to a problem in a timely manner, a workaround may be provided as a temporary solution to restore the use of the Products. Severities of cases may be downgraded by one Severity Level when a confirmed workaround is provided that alleviates the impact of the corresponding issue. When a workaround has been provided, permanent fixes that require substantial development, quality assurance work, or cooperation of a third party will be delivered or not by AAI at our sole discretion.
  • You agree to: (i) perform reasonable first-line support prior to opening a case with AAI; (ii) file a separate case for every separate or potentially separate problem; (iii) cooperate and communicate in a timely manner with AAI; (iv) assign designated contact persons with the necessary technical and communication skills to collaborate with AAI; (v) provide AAI with sufficient and accurate information related to the problem; (vi) make reasonable attempts to replicate, or assist AAI in replicating the problem under the circumstances in place at the time of case submission, including by conducting diagnostic or troubleshooting activities; (vii) implement changes to your infrastructure and/or applications as directed by AAI in order to troubleshoot and/or resolve the problem; and (viii) escalate cases within the Customer Support Portal prior to escalating cases with the assigned CSM, AAI Sales, or AAI Support Management. In the event you fail to perform steps (i) to (viii), AAI reserves the right to close the case with or without prior notice.
  • Troubleshooting of Severity 1 cases in the follow-the-sun model for eligible Support Plans will be carried out subject to your resources being available to work with our support team during the relevant time period.
  • The designated admin can, among other administrative functions: add/delete designated contacts, reset login details, select appropriate shifts, and request administrative changes to the Customer’s cloud instance. All other designated contacts can only open cases based on your support plan.
  • Any Personal Data which we collect to authenticate support cases and requests will be processed in accordance with the Data Processing Agreement located at https://www.automationanywhere.com/DPA.pdf. “Personal Data” means (a) personal data, personal information, personally identifiable information, or similar term as defined by applicable privacy laws or (b) if not defined by applicable privacy law, any information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person. Personal Data which we collect from the individual who is submitting a support case or request includes, but is not limited to, first and last name, username, role, title, position, location, employer and/or our customer’s or partner’s name, contact Information (email, phone number, physical business address), and IP address.
  • Submission of Personal Data and Protected Health Information (as defined in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) are prohibited in support cases and requests.

Scope of Support

  • The Scope of Support will depend on your Support Plan, as described later in this document.
  • The Support Team will be able to help you if you face any problems with existing automations in production. However, if you want us to modify/rebuild a task or bot for you, you will need to work with our professional services team or a partner, which would be a chargeable engagement not covered under Orange, Silver, and Gold. For Platinum support and Titanium support, your hours of Solution Services can be used to modify/rebuild a task or bot for you.
  • Support includes answering quick questions regarding using a specific feature of the Product and assisting with a particular problem or error message. More extensive help with specific features can be provided by our professional services team or a partner as a chargeable engagement not covered under support.
  • The Support Team will provide support for issues with your existing automations in production, including problems specific to third-party software built into or embedded by Automation Anywhere into its Product, to provide a Product functionality. However, should it be determined that the problem relates to a third-party product within your environment and is unrelated to the Automation Anywhere software/platform, you will need to directly engage the respective third-party technology vendor. Automation Anywhere support is unable to open a support request with any such third-party vendor on your behalf.

 

Severity Level Definitions

Support Terms applicable to the standard entry-level Orange Support Plan that is included with all Product Subscriptions:

Initial Response Target:

AAI will take commercially reasonable efforts to meet initial response targets for at least 85% of all submitted cases.

Shifts/Local Languages:

As part of the standard, entry-level Orange Support Plan, you must select one of the supported regionally aligned shifts for all of your team members (currently, five shifts are supported) and one corresponding additional supported language for that shift (in addition to English) that you may submit all your cases in. Cases submitted for all severities in English or local languages will only be worked during the one selected shift.

Designated Contacts/Designated Admins:

Up to 2 designated contacts will be able to log and manage cases. These designated contacts will not be able to see or manage each other’s cases. Still, both will be able to be set as delegated admins to manage designated contacts and their privileges.

Remote Support:

Live Support for customers via phone, Zoom, Teams, or other communication channels will be made as deemed appropriate by the Automation Anywhere support team.

Chat Support:

Real-time communication between a customer and customer support agent via instant messaging through a pop-up dialogue box built into the Automation Anywhere Customer Support Portal.

 

Support Terms Applicable to Silver, Gold, Platinum and Titanium Support Plans:

These terms are operative when a paid subscription for Silver, Gold, Platinum and Titanium support is in effect as reflected on an executed Order Form. Note that a) the initial paid subscription for Silver, Gold, Platinum or Titanium support must reflect all Product subscriptions for all AAI Products in effect globally at the time of execution of such Order Form and b) to continue to enjoy purchased Silver, Gold, Platinum or Titanium support during the term of the paid support subscription, you must also purchase the respective support level for all incremental Product subscriptions globally during such paid support subscription term. Note that all Silver, Gold, Platinum or Titanium support subscriptions are non-creditable and non-refundable.

Shifts/Local Languages:

As part of our premium Silver, Gold, Platinum or Titanium Support Plans, you have access to all of our supported regionally aligned shifts (currently five) and corresponding local languages (currently 7) as selected at the time of case submission. Severity 1 cases submitted in English will be initially responded to on a 24/7/365 basis and will be worked on a continuous follow-the-sun basis. Other cases are guaranteed only to be worked during the shift selected at the time of case submission.

Permission-based support portal case visibility across the account:

Designated support contacts on the customer side, if enabled by one of the designated delegated admins, can see all cases submitted by all the designated contacts.

Designated support contacts on the customer side can manually or automatically be added as CCs to cases and thus receive all case updates for such cases.

Support Terms applicable to the Silver Support Plan:

Initial Response Target:

AAI will take commercially reasonable efforts to meet initial response targets for at least 90% of all submitted cases.
