Overview

When you need help, use the Support Center to submit a request. You can submit requests for information, setup, issues, etc. or give us product feedback. Follow your request as it progresses, review and add comments and supporting materials.

Getting Started

To open the support center, from the left navigation click Support Center.

You have two options:

• Submit a Request: If you need help setting something up, need help understanding something, or need to report an issue use this option and we will follow up with you.
• Give Us Product Feedback: How can we make Simon better for you? We'd love to know! Let us know here. We may or may not follow up in the future.

The Support Center dashboard displays your requests categorized into three sections:

From this dashboard, you can quickly view support ticket Subjects, when it was initially submitted, its current status, who submitted the request, when it was last updated, and the current priority.

• Use the ticket numbers in the first column to easily reference open or previously closed tickets.
• If a blue dot displays next to the subject name, you have a new or unread comment from us. Click the subject name to open and view.
