Prodiance Technical Support
As a part of the integration of Prodiance with Microsoft, we aligned Prodiance Support with Microsoft Technical Support. On September 30th we transitioned the Prodiance legacy support systems and tools for Prodiance products to Microsoft support systems and tools. Leveraging Microsoft's systems, tools, and processes will enable us to provide you with the highest level of support as we move forward. Customers with a valid and active Prodiance Maintenance and Support agreement were provided instructions on how to transition to the MS Support model. Microsoft is honoring Prodiance legacy support agreements through their expiration. If you have a valid Prodiance legacy support agreement and did not receive instructions on how to transition to our Microsoft support model, please contact us at following email address ossprodiance@microsoft.com. In case your Prodiance legacy support contract expired, please contact Microsoft Customer Service and Support at (800) 936-4900 for purchasing the right Microsoft support agreement that fits your needs.
