Service Level Objectives for TrackTik in favor of Clients and End Users

TrackTik warrants to Client that the Services will be fully operational and shall be available to Clients not less than 99.5% of the time in any thirty (30) day period (each occurrence of unavailability is referred to as a “Service Interruption”), excluding unavailability (i) caused by Client, related to the connection to the internet, and (ii) as a result of regularly scheduled maintenance (the “Planned Maintenance”). TrackTik will make the Services available on a 24 hour per day, 7 days per week, 365 days per year basis to all Clients.

Severity Classifications

TrackTik provides a four level severity system for all support issues. The severity level is applied by a member of TrackTik’s team following the initial assessment of the support issue. TrackTik reserves the right to modify the severity level of an issue at any time with or without notice.

  1. Critical Impact

Client’s system is severely degraded with multiple users not being able to access core functionality which directly impacts Clients’ business processes.

  • Services are inaccessible or severely degraded
  • Majority of users affected
  • Impacting Clients’ business processes
  1. Major Impact

Client’s system is available but degraded and cannot process Client’s information request (select functionality is unavailable), affecting Clients’ business processes.

  • Services are available with degraded functionality
  • Multiple users affected
