Schedule 1

Details of Hosting Support Service, service levels and service credits

Hosting Support Service for Service/Software:

 

Due to the varying types of Hosting Support Service issues and the dependency on both your and Hyland’s Third Party Services (hosting provider’s) interaction, Hyland does not offer a “resolution target” for Hosting Support Service issues.

Response and resolution times depend on the nature and severity of the Hosting Support Service issues reported. The following response and approximate resolution times represent ‘worst case scenarios’ for the most complex Hosting Support Service issues rather than being targets for all Hosting Support Service issues and Hyland would expect to be well within these times for most Hosting Support Service issues.

The date and time at which a Hosting Support Service issue is raised is considered to be the date and time at which it is entered into the Support Portal. Any Hosting Support Service issues raised by your staff or agents via telephone call will be logged on their behalf within the Support Portal. Where Hosting Support Service issues are raised by telephone call then a first response target will be deemed to have been met by the interaction within said call. For the purposes of the audit trail and any subsequent reports the times will be taken from the date and time the Hosting Support Service issues were logged in the Support Portal.

Hyland will respond to Hosting Support Service tickets within Standard Support Hours within the following response times:

Priority of Hosting Support Service Issue:

First Response (as set out above) within:

Feedback frequency:

Approximate resolution for Hosting Support Service issue, Platform or Release update, temporary fix or workaround and where applicable, available for you to test:

Service Credits shall only be paid as a refund if the agreement is terminated or expires and the Supported Service is not renewed. The measurement of determining Service Credits shall be based on a calendar year and accordingly shall commence from your first full calendar month using the Service/Software.

Service credits are only payable on the applicable Uptime banding and not applied cumulatively. Scheduled Downtime and emergency maintenance as referred to in this Agreement is excluded from the calculation of Uptime.

 

“Uptime”

Uptime is defined as the percentage availability of the Hosting Service over the current calendar year excluding Scheduled Downtime.

 

“Scheduled Downtime”

Scheduled Downtime is planned routine maintenance for the deployment of Releases of the Service/Software to the Hosting Service or regular maintenance activities such as scheduled Hosting Service patching.

 

Hyland Disaster Recovery Environment (‘DR Environment’) provision operates as follows:

Backups are taken every 24 hours (overnight) In relation to the LIVE Environment of your LAMP based Hyland Software Products and used to refresh your DR Environment. The DR Environment for your Hyland Software Products is available during a LIVE Environment disaster event subject to DNS changes initiated and managed by you. The declaration of the disaster and the initiating of a switch to the DR Environment is subject to agreement between you and Hyland and will take place at an agreed time.

Any third-party integrations (including those in relation to Third Party Services) requiring special connectivity arrangements (VPN, IP whitelisting, etc.) will not work unless previously configured on both sides by the initiator (DR Environment) and the receiver (third party integration end-point) following prior cooperation between the parties of this Agreement for such arrangements and any such services shall be delivered (by Hyland or by its subcontractors) at Hyland’s Professional Services rates.

During usage of the DR Environment, content changes can be made to the DR Environment by you but those changes will not be replicated back to the LIVE Environment when it is restored unless such a service has been agreed between the parties as an additional Professional Service.
