Support and maintenance

We’ve worked hard to create a set of uniquely flexible services based around application support and maintenance so you don’t have to.

It's never been so important

It has never been so important for agencies to offer website support and maintenance.

  • Support and maintenance is becoming increasingly important as websites and web-based application are becoming more complex.
  • Many of our clients’ clients have global online portfolios covering transactional sites, brand-led sites and campaign microsites. All of these require 24/7 support every day of the year, and a structured process for handling ongoing low-level site maintenance.
  • More and more procurement managers are looking for support and maintenance as part of the agency offering at pitch time.
  • Agencies are looking for the regular revenue generated by this type of ongoing service.

And this is where we come in. Cohaesus offers support and maintenance solutions that are easy to set up and easy to manage. We do all of the hard work for you – from setting up dedicated telephone support lines through to managing day-to-day maintenance tickets – allowing you to free up your valuable technical and project-management resources. These services can be white-labelled under your name or stand alone (whichever suits your business model), and all at a price that protects your agency’s margins.

key features

  • Dedicated 24/7 telephone support line and online dashboard

    Our first-level support staff are trained to determine the type of support issue at hand and to direct it to the most suitable members of our technical staff. The time of the issue is recorded and this is used to report on how well the SLAs (service-level agreements) are being met.

  • Paging services that contact the on-duty software engineers/developers

    We have state-of-the-art paging services that will contact the duty support staff whatever the time of day or night. If for some reason the engineer on call cannot be reached, the next engineer on the roster is called – and so on until, if all else fails, our technical directors receive that call.

  • Cloud-based customer-service software

    Ticketing systems that record the issue, display the nature of the problem, show the status and estimated response times that will align with the client’s SLAs. Some of our high-volume ecommerce clients demand a 15-minute response time.

  • On-call engineers/ developers

    Our support teams are on hand 24/7 to undertake any critical issues as required.

  • 3rd level support

    Our technical directors are available if any support-related ticket needs to be escalated.

  • 4th level support

    If we isolate the issue to a 3rd party vendor/supplier, we will liaise with them to resolve the issue.

managed website-support services

Our support services are there to help you when something goes wrong with your site. For example, your customers are unable to buy products on your ecommerce site at 2am. We have a range of flexible processes that can be adapted to fit into your current workflows or replace them altogether.

Website support services flow

managed website maintenance services

Maintenance services cover scheduled work required to fix 'non-breaking bugs' - non-urgent, but nonetheless requires attention - and to add new features, new copy or new banners, etc. Unlike support work, maintenance releases are planned and scheduled.

Website maintenance flow

combined managed support and maintenance services

Due to the close nature of support and maintenance, it’s quite normal that once we’ve reacted to your support request there are often further resultant tasks that will need scheduling into the maintenance work plan after the support ticket has closed. This is why in the majority of cases we undertake both services.
