Rapita International Support Team

Front line support

Our support team is comprised of several Field Application Engineers (FAE’s). You will be aided by people who use the tool everyday and have done several integrations involving a variety of compilers, languages, and platforms.

"Rapita team was exceedingly prompt. They have a keen eye for these kinds of problems and spotted the issue quickly. Thanks for the support!"

Maintenance

We do everything we can to find defects in our tools as early as possible and fix them. If you find a bug in our tools, we encourage you to inform us and our development team will endeavor to offer a workaround until we can provide you with a version of the software that fixes the bug. When we have fixed the bug, we will provide you with an interim wavefront version of the software that resolves your problem until our next incremental software release.

"The Rapita support team was super supportive and came with quick fixes with low turnaround time. Appreciate their effort to work late hours supporting client at different time zone."
