Vague promises of "fast support" are not good enough. Cloudswitched provides contractually guaranteed response times backed by SLAs — so you know exactly when help will arrive.
Business-critical issues receive a response from a qualified engineer within 15 minutes, guaranteed.
Response times are defined in your contract with measurable targets and regular reporting.
Monthly reports show actual response times against SLA targets for full transparency.
When your email server goes down or a security incident is detected, you need certainty about when help will arrive. Many IT providers quote response times but fail to commit them contractually. Cloudswitched defines response times in your service agreement, measures them rigorously, and reports on them monthly. You always know where you stand.
Our response times are not aspirational targets — they are contractual obligations documented in your service level agreement.
Response times are graduated by severity: 15 minutes for critical, 30 minutes for high, and 2 hours for standard. Every issue gets appropriate urgency.
Monthly SLA reports show every ticket, its severity, response time, and whether the target was met. No hiding behind averages.
Our fastest guaranteed response is 15 minutes for critical severity issues — those affecting multiple users or causing business-wide disruption. This means a qualified engineer acknowledges and begins working on the issue within 15 minutes.
We use a clear three-tier severity model. Critical covers issues affecting the whole business or multiple users. High covers individual users unable to work. Standard covers non-urgent requests and questions. Severity is assigned at ticket creation and can be adjusted.
Missed SLA targets are flagged in our monthly reports and discussed in quarterly review meetings. Our contracts include escalation procedures and, where agreed, service credit provisions for sustained underperformance.
Standard SLAs apply during our core support hours. For businesses requiring guaranteed out-of-hours response times, we offer 24/7 SLA packages with defined targets that apply around the clock.
Yes. While our standard SLA tiers suit most businesses, we can create bespoke service level agreements for organisations with specific requirements. Custom SLAs are common for businesses in regulated industries or with mission-critical systems.
