Overview

The FreeWheel Support Tool is used to request technical support and sign up for notifications about FreeWheel system updates, release information, and office closures.

Users may utilize FreeWheel's (FW) Support Portal to request technical assistance (via the Freewheel Support Tool) or opt into receiving e-mail alerts about system updates, product release information, and other announcements (via notification sign-up). 

Info

Requests for technical assistance are handled by

...

our Freewheel support team during business hours, Monday to Friday, or 24/7 for urgent inquiries.

...

Support requests are addressed by Support Engineers, who are product experts that can directly address or escalate issues to appropriate specialists within FreeWheel as necessary.
