Symantec will receive the customer call and will verify the customer is entitled to receive Support services. Symantec will establish the severity level of the customer’s problem and will then route the customer case to Precise.

Q. How can existing Symantec customers convert their support contract directly to Precise?

A. Contact your Precise Account Manager or email us.

Q. How are new Symantec APM customers supported?
