Expert inquiry system

The DoiT console is the portal of our expert inquiry system.

We recommend that you always open inquiries via the DoiT console. This way, we'll have more context about your environment and can diagnose the issue quicker. It also allows you to track the status of all your inquiries and interact effectively with our support team.

We use Zendesk as a backend for our expert inquiry system. Zendesk automates the process of assigning inquiries to the right DoiT experts. When you submit an inquiry, Zendesk automatically sends emails on our behalf so you know that your inquiry has been received and is being processed.

Global support regions

DoiT provides support for customer inquiries from global support centers located in the APAC, EMEA, and AMER regions, as outlined in the table below. Each support center operates from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM local time on regular business days.

Support is available for four severity levels—P1, P2, P3, and P4—as defined in the table. Inquiries classified as P2 through P4 will be addressed by the DoiT regional support center geographically closest to the Customer contact who submitted the inquiry.

If a P2—P4 inquiry is submitted outside of local business hours, it will be addressed when the corresponding regional support center resumes operations. Our support teams observe public holidays specific to their respective regions, and in such cases, support may resume on the next business day.
