Customer Support by Email
Customer support by email is available from 9a to 5p ET Monday through Friday. Generally, emailed inquiries receive a response within 2 working hours. Please be aware that during times of heavy volume, this initial response may be delayed. To ensure a prompt response, submit your inquiry only once and include as much detail about your question or problem as possible.

-When to use Email Support-
Contact support by email with questions or comments that don’t require an immediate response or to request new features. This will allow us time to research your question thoroughly and provide an accurate and timely response.

-How to use Email Support-
To ask a general question about the program: Click the Help menu and select Contact Customer Support. We prefer to receive questions by email using this menu option for the following reasons:
1. The email will include an attached Debug report that tells us your current version number and configuration.
2. Written requests allow us time to research the problem and recommend appropriate steps.
3. Operational questions can often be answered by helping you find the appropriate Help article, or links to the appropriate recorded tutorials.
4. Common questions can quickly be answered.
5. Answers that require lengthy telephone conversations can be scheduled at a time convenient for both of us.

To report a problem: Click the Help menu and select Contact Customer Support. When reporting a problem, please include as much detail about the problem as possible. The better your description, the quicker we can assist you.

Include screen captures or other graphics as appropriate and the exact text of any error messages if any was displayed.
Tell us how long the problem has existed and whether there have been any recent changes to the hardware, software, or settings on the affected computer.


To request a new feature: Click the Help menu and select Submit an Enhancement Request. We recommend that requests for new features be submitted in writing to avoid ambiguity.

Describe the particular feature(s) you’d like to see.
Include screen captures or other graphics that illustrate the suggestion, as appropriate.
Explain why you think your feature request will be useful to you and other users.

During times of heavy volume, your call may go to voicemail. Please be patient, we will get back to you as soon as possible.

-When to call Support-
Call support if your problem or question requires an immediate response, such as loss of database connectivity, or an expired license key.

-How to call Support-
When requesting support by phone, please call from the computer experiencing the problem and be prepared to assist customer support staff in troubleshooting your issue.

Support for non-ProTracker related software or hardware
For help with error messages, system performance, non-ProTracker hardware and software issues, especially printers, networks, and system security, click the ProTracker Help menu and select Knowledge Base.
