SugarCRM Support to Fortify Your ROI
If you've adopted SugarCRM, you already understand its value. But, ROI is calculated from much more than a price tag. To truly maximize your investment, the system must continue to evolve and align with your long-term goals. It must be reliable, self-sustaining, and seamless. Technology Advisors provides SugarCRM support options for every need and budget. We take issue resolution, bug fixes, and other unexpected hiccups to task, fortifying your ROI and creating happier users long-term.
Sugar Support Programs
Technical Support
TAI provides free technical support for any subscription customer who designates TAI as their business partner. We help you identify the problem and determine a solution quickly so your internal team doesn’t waste time.
BEST FOR: Teams that would like a partner to help them resolve Sugar-specific issues and support their system
Administration Support
If you are too small to have a CRM administrator or need a temporary systems administrator, this program is for you. We provide all the services you would expect from your system administrator such as adding/removing users, changing security, creating reports and dashboards, importing/exporting data, and making sure your system is running correctly.
BEST FOR: Teams who do not have a full or part-time CRM administrator but would like dependable SugarCRM support
Premier Support
Premier support is our no touch support model. It includes everything in Technical and Administrator support plus a bank of hours to add new features and keep your system current.
BEST FOR: Teams wishing for more immediate, full-service support options and seeking out additional customizations and improvements to their CRM solution
Pre-Paid Support
Pre-paid support is for companies wishing to save support hours for a rainy day. Pre-paid support can be used for a CRM project, software support, or custom development. Pre-paid hours are purchased in one-hour increments, starting at a minimum of 5 hours. They are valid for one year from purchase and are discounted based on quantity.
BEST FOR: Teams looking to budget resources for next year’s projects or companies seeking Services discounts for larger projects
Retainer-Based Support
TAI provides a fractional support agent available to help you administer and customize your system. For companies without IT support or a dedicated administrator, Retainer-based support is an excellent alternative. Retainer-based support is especially useful for companies that wish to manage Marketing Automation, BI, or AI projects, where the collection of data is critical to project decisions and the project is usually performed in pieces over a longer period of time.
BEST FOR: Teams that need a part-time CRM resource or are doing a project over a longer time frame
