Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I have to schedule it one week in advance?
Support engineers are very busy, and preparing for a mentoring session can take time. Sometimes there is additional research or material that needs to be created. Sometimes it just takes time to line up the schedules of the experts that are needed.
How come I can’t choose the exact time I want?
The day and time is used as a guideline for the request of the support engineers. After filing the request, the expert who is assigned your case will reach out to you in 24-48 hours to arrange the exact time and specifics. This helps us be more versatile and agile in aligning schedules.
Why is my mentoring session not being handled by my Named Support Engineer?
We want to put you in contact with the best expert on the subject of your needs. Sometimes this is your Named Support Engineer, and sometimes it is another expert on our team. But don’t worry: if your Named Support Engineer is not assigned the case, they will still be included in the meeting to maintain continuity for you and your team.
How are my mentoring sessions counted?
This number counts down every time a mentoring session or extended service is requested by any Authorized Support Contact on your team.
