The software license for IDS7 includes Software Maintenance. Software Maintenance — previously available separately as Software Subscription and Technical Support — is the most effective way for you to ensure that your users have the latest technology at their fingertips and maintain the highest levels of productivity. With Software Maintenance, your IS technical staff has continual access to IBM software technical support centers, as needed. Software Maintenance is the most effective strategy for staying up to date and assuring technical support coverage is available whenever you need it. It provides you with access to new versions and releases of the product and allows for cross-platform migration at no extra cost during the coverage period. In addition to software upgrades, an integral part of Software Maintenance is technical support designed to meet the support requirements of a customer running multiple IBM products in a complex environment. The support is not intended as an end-user support offering, but is designed to supplement your support staff by providing telephone and electronic cross-platform support for routine, short duration installation, as well as usage (how-to) questions, and code-related problems. Software Maintenance is automatically included with the license until the first or second anniversary date of your Passport Advantage contract, dependent on the anniversary coverage you selected with your initial acquisition.
