Maximize the Value of Your Planview Investment

The TAM Program is designed exclusively for our most valued customers on a Premier or Enterprise plan. This offering provides a full time or part time partner who will diligently analyze and understand your unique business use cases and processes in order to drive value and efficiency.

Our subject matter expert will be your centralized hub for technical inquiries, proactive monitoring, and risk mitigation. The proactive approach ensures your operations run smoothly and efficiently. 

 

Premier Distinction   

Premier members are assigned a Support Engineer to conduct monthly case status reviews, and ensure any issues that may arise are addressed. 

Members will also benefit from prioritized routing throughout the support ticket lifecycle - from initial triage, escalation to development teams, to the scheduling of fix deployments.

Access to one instance of each Sandbox to test and stage releases prior to production go-live is also included within this support package. Your Sandbox is a replica of your production application installed in a separate environment. It includes all data and can be used without compromising the data and stability of your active production environment as you test new features, build configurations, and conduct training.
