GearHost is committed to providing a stellar customer experience. As an essential part of this commitment, we offer limited free technical support to all applications running on the GearHost platform. Free technical support is limited to the scope, hours, contacts, and channels below.

GearHost offers free support for the technologies supported by GearHost and is limited to the following:

• General questions about supported software packages

• Identifying problems preventing an application from starting or running on GearHost
• Providing workarounds or resolutions for known problems
• Answering general how-to questions, and providing pointers to documentation
• Troubleshooting supported software packages showing erratic or faulty behavior on GearHost, independent of the user's application code

GearHost's technical support services do not extend to the following areas:

• General debugging of user applications
• Rewriting application code for compatibility with GearHost
• Modifying and/or patching third party or Open Source software packages for compatibility with GearHost

GearHost does not offer a paid consulting or professional services program

The GearHost Cloud Platform is monitored 24/7/365 by comprehensive automated systems. In the event of any issue affecting the health and operation of the GearHost infrastructure, core systems, or tools, our dedicated operations team is notified and will respond immediately to diagnose and correct any issues. This 24x7 monitoring covers the entire GearHost platform, benefiting all GearHost users.

In the event of a platform issue, a notice will be posted on our platform status site at www.gearhoststatus.com to promptly communicate the impact and status of any such issue. If there's an ongoing platform issue, you do not need to submit a support ticket. Instead, monitor the status page which will always be kept up-to-date with the latest progress and information.
