If you need additional support and garantueed e-mail response times (48-72 working hours) you can purchase unlimited e-mail support at 15% of your license price for every 12 months. If you need additional 1:1 support you can buy support incidents at $ 99 each. This also covers all major upgrades to the product during this period. Additional support is available from GroupVille resellers (hosting, installation, maintenance) and Frontbase (backup service, disaster recovery) separately. See price lists below for details.
