In our constant effort to provide exemplary customer support, we must have clear lines of communication between each other. Those clear lines of communication involve fast, reliable data transfer. Therefore, we do require that you connect to us via secure high speed VPN or web connection. Dial-up support will most likely incur additional charges, as it slows down workflow.
A good knowledge of the inner-workings and history of your server/workstation is important. One of the most common questions we ask is: "What has changed on the computer since it was last working?" ie: Windows updates, new software install, user account passwords, etc.
We value and appreciate our customers!
Genesis is constantly upgrading most of our software, adding features and improving performance. We also keep step with updates on Motorola Trunking Systems, along with other system manufacturers.
Customers who remain current on Genesis Maintenance and Total Support (MTS), all normal upgrades that happen during a year are included at no extra charge. If, during a year (the period of time between MTS renewal), we improve a piece of software and it increases the selling price of the software to the general public, then we only ask our MTS customers to pay the incremental difference in what they paid for the software and the new selling price.
"Why don't I just get it included in my MTS fee under all circumstances?"
There are times when we have a significant change in software. This happens in all industries. These major changes bring along increased value to our customers above and beyond normal enhancements that we make. Unlike some companies that require customers pay the entire cost of the software over again for upgrades like this, we only ask for the minor incremental difference.
