TESTIMONIALS

"I’m very impressed with the flexibility, knowledge and level of service we have received from Bennet Communications. When we had a service outage, they came to our site within hours, on a holiday weekend. I’ve used a number of companies who support Avaya systems, and they are without a doubt the best."

Mike Newchok, National Hotline Services

"I would like to say that Bennet Communications knowledge of the Avaya platform is unparalleled. The staff is very professional and the customer satisfaction is excellent. I am already thinking of implementing a few more Avaya systems in my company's remote locations as well as recommending the company to other IT professionals in the industry."

Ted Theocharis, Design Cuisine

MAINTENANCE

At Bennet Communications, we understand that phones are the lifeblood of your business. It is critical that we be there for our customers when they need us the most. Because of this, we are offering a post warranty maintenance agreement on the following switches: Avaya IP Office, Avaya PARTNER®ACS, Avaya MERLIN MAGIX®, Avaya MERLIN LEGEND systems, and IP Office Customer Management Solution. Bennet has simplified the process for contacting our help desk in case trouble should arise with your system. The following coverage options are available under the post warranty maintenance:

Preferred Coverage

Bennet Communications preferred coverage provides you with a service plan that gives you peace of mind if a problem would occur on your system during peak work hours. Preferred coverage maintenance on your hardware and software configurations includes all the support need to clear faults quickly and to maximize the availability of your systems, equipment, and applications.

The preferred coverage 8x5, option is business day maintenance coverage from 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding Bennet assigned holidays. A Standard 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. maintenance coverage is as follows:

  1. For major outages our response time is within four hours, and the trouble can possibly be fixed same-day if the trouble ticket is in by 1 p.m. A “major outage” is one in which 50 percent or more of the telephone instruments and/or the main switchboard equipment are not operational.
     
  2. Anything other than a major outage is considered a minor failure. For minor service problems, remedial maintenance will be provided within 24 hours of notification. However, remedial maintenance for minor service problems will be performed only during the coverage period.
Premium Coverage

The premium coverage 24x7, option gives you the same coverage as the preferred coverage 8x5, but also provides support on major outages around the clock, 24-hour-per day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. A premium 24x7 maintenance coverage is as follows:

  1. For major outages our response time is within four hours, and the trouble can possibly be fixed same-day if the trouble ticket is in by 1 p.m. A “major outage” is one in which 50 percent or more of the telephone instruments and/or the main switchboard equipment are not operational.
     
  2. Anything other than a major outage is considered a minor failure. For minor service problems, remedial maintenance will be provided within 24 hours of notification. However, remedial maintenance for minor service problems will be conducted only between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding any holidays observed by Bennet. The source of the failure will be detected and isolated and remedial measures will be commenced.
