Overview

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).

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.
