Solo Support scope
Solo Support offers technical assistance in English for Solo products. We are committed to helping you successfully utilize our software in your production environment by:
- Addressing specific questions and concerns related to the installation and maintenance of our software.
- Assisting with troubleshooting.
- Helping resolve errors or failures encountered during installation or use of our products.
- Identifying and documenting reported bugs, as well as providing workaround solutions when possible.
- Providing support for the integration between Solo products and third-party software. Note: If we identify that the issue is happening on the third-party side, we may redirect you to work with the appropriate vendor, as we do not provide support for other vendor’s software.

Not within Solo Support’s scope

- Third party integrations, such as HashiCorp Vault
- Writing custom scripts
- Configuration of external authentication systems
- Open source projects
Reach out to your Solo Account Executive or Customer Success Manager if you have questions or require assistance with any of the following:
- Architecture, design review, and best practices
- Securing your environment
- Comprehensive installation guide
- Help with custom code
- Scheduling or registering for training and workshops
For guidance on what products may be right for you, to request a demo, and to learn more about pricing options, contact Solo Sales or reach out to your Account Executive.
