Service Level Agreement

ServerWise Group is committed to providing services at a standard of excellence commensurate with the best practice in the industry. Network uptime and server availability are of the highest importance. The following service levels are designed to assure our customers of ultimate performance and maximal uptime.

Hardware

We stand behind our computers with an "unlimited free replacement warranty" for ALL leased or rented systems, including individual parts ordered as upgrades from ServerWise Group.

ServerWise Group will replace, at no charge (including labor), the following components or system parts: System Enclosures or cases, CPU or Processors, Random Access Memory (RAM), System Motherboards, Controllers, Ethernet Adapters, Ethernet or Network Cards, CD ROMs, Floppy Drives, IDE or SCSI Hard Disk Drives, SCSI Adapters, Video Cards, Sound Cards, Surge Protectors and Un-interrupted Power Supplies (UPS), Network and Power Cables, System Power Supplies, System Fans.

Repair will start upon our identification of the hardware failure and will be completed within 2 hours from problem identification. If faulty hardware replacement takes more than 2 hours, customer will be refunded 5% of monthly fee per additional hour of down time (up to customer's full monthly fee).

Network

ServerWise Group uses Cisco switches, routers, and other networking equipment. Redundant components are used to ensure uptime and minimize failure. Our network is connected through multiple DS-3 fiber optic lines within our dual OC-12 SONET Ring to several backbone providers, for fast, reliable connectivity.

Network Uptime

ServerWise Group guarantees network availability of 99.9% in a given month (43.2 minutes downtime per month), excluding scheduled maintenance. Network is considered unavailable if there is a 100% packet loss from ServerWise to its backbone providers. We will refund customers 5% of the monthly fee for each additional hour of downtime (up to 100% of customer's monthly fee). Network infrastructure is all equipment, from the cable connected to the server's NIC to the backbone provider, and includes routers, switches and cabling. Downtime is measured past 10 minutes after notification of network failure, via the ticketing system. If the ticketing system itself is unreachable, the ticket must be started by emailing ServerWise Support. ServerWise personnel will determine end of downtime by a traceroute to the customer's machine from outside ServerWise Group.

Claiming Refunds

Customer is responsible for notifying the billing department for any credits due for the month within seven days from the time of the incidence. Customer should supply all relevant information, including ticket numbers, for refund to take place. Denial of customer claims may be appealed through the normal escalation procedure.

Customer Spamming Policy

ServerWise Group has zero tolerance for spam originating from our customers, or from our customers' customers, or for spam advertising web sites of our customers or our customers' customers
