Service Level Agreement

Our commitment to reliability, response times, and accountability for every managed IT service we deliver.

1. Uptime Guarantee

99.9%
Uptime SLA

We guarantee 99.9% uptime for all managed infrastructure during each calendar month, measured as the percentage of minutes in which monitored systems are available and responsive. Scheduled maintenance windows are excluded from uptime calculations and communicated at least 48 hours in advance.

If uptime falls below 99.9% in any month, clients are eligible for service credits as described in Section 6.

Target resolution is our best-effort timeframe for resolving the issue or providing a viable workaround.
