"An SLA is nothing more than a piece of paper and a promise. It doesn't protect you from unscheduled downtime, a good
infrastructure does." -Reed J. Caldwell
The ServInt SLA is a reflection of our quality in the form of an
aggressive set of guarantees, as well as a compensation system should we
fail to meet our promised high standards of service. ServInt's SLA is not
designed with the intention of being liberal with outage credits, it was
created to promote our goal of never needing to apply them. Read on and
find out why ServInt is the best value in the industry.
ServInt strives for 100% uptime availability at all times for all
clients, and we have a track record that shows us consistently meeting
that goal month after month. Our strong network history is bolstered by
our top-notch infrastructure as well as our 99.9% uptime guarantee. This
guarantee offers customers a credit of 5% of their monthly bill for each
30 minutes of network downtime, up to a maximum 100% of their monthly
bill. The only exemptions to this guarantee are downtime due to customer
fault, maintenance of our network, and voluntary downtime such as downtime
associated with service upgrades.
ServInt also guarantees that its critical data center infrastructure
will be available and subject to the same commitment level. This
infrastructure includes data facility security, power and temperature
control. Our 99.9% uptime guarantee offers customers a credit of 5% of
their monthly bill for each 30 minutes of downtime due to infrastructure
failure, up to a maximum 100% of their monthly bill. Downtime due to data
center maintenance of our facilities is exempt from this guarantee.
ServInt guarantees the use of all equipment leased to customers.
ServInt will provide hardware replacement for all such hosting equipment,
and guarantees that we will do so within two hours of identification of
the hardware failure. In the event that hardware failure leads to downtime
in excess of two hours, ServInt will credit customer with 5% of their
monthly bill for each 30 minutes of server downtime, up to a maximum 100%
of their monthly bill. The only exemptions to this guarantee are downtime
due to customer fault and voluntary downtime such as downtime associated
with service upgrades. The guarantee covers only physical hardware
replacement, and does not cover data integrity or recovery, nor the
rebuilding of RAID arrays or quotas.
ServInt guarantees customer access to its technical support staff
around the clock, providing customers with a credit of 5% of their monthly
bill for each 30 minutes of downtime associated with a loss of the ability
to communicate with our NOC due to the physical loss of telephone and
e-mail access by our support staff. Loss of customer telephone and e-mail
access is exempt from this guarantee.
