Microsoft Support is superb in Asia/Pacific.


They always go the extra mile.

 

Just take care with how you manage your side of the arrangement.  The
partnership relationship works very well for me.

 Hi,
 
 I work for an end client who are using AX3.0. We were trying to get rid of 
 partner and went direct with MS for AX support.
 
 For 'Customer' support, they are asking about 60K+USD/annum for 30 hours.
 
 Here are my thoughts.
 
 1. MS is always tier1 support. I feel they are one of the dumbest people i 
 ever come across...For example, vendor aging report. Pathetic..
 
 2. MS support sucks for AX4.0 because of DIS.AOD file. They will not tell us 
 the objects in question for the fix rather they will give the whole AOD file 
 which will have every fix. It takes ages to extract the fix for some of the 
 critical issues
 
 3. Honestly, they are bugs in the system. They should be not charging us for 
 fixing their bugs...
 
 4. Documentation on the issue sucks
 
 5. KB article information on some of the bugs are horrible.
 
 4. I know/dealt with almost all each and every object in axapta...
 
 Do you know if we really need to pay 60K for support from MS?
 
 It feels to me that a lot of money for the services we get from them.
 
 
 Are there any companies out there that they dont use MS support?
 
 I am interested to know...
 
 
 Appreciate any help.
 
 Kind regards,
 Subbu
