Here is how our phone support system works. All callers are prompted to leave a message. This message is automatically, and immediately, transcribed into an email that is sent to everyone at FloristWare that might be able to help solve the problem.
This allows us to start discussing your situation (and the resolution) behind the scenes, and figure out the best way to help you.
You'll then get a response from the person best able to help you, using the channel that is most effective for the situation. The response may be an email with a link to a video or support article. It may be a screen sharing session so that we can see what is happening and fix as needed. It may be a phone call.
The system works very well, especially if the following guideline is followed:
Leave A Detailed Message That Explains The Situation
Vague messages like "we're having a problem, please call us" don't really let us help you because there is no information to works with. Details let us start solving the problem before we even get back to you.
"A problem well stated is a problem half solved"
Charles Kettering
Responses are prioritized. Someone that has forgotten their password and is locked out of their system will probably get a response sooner than someone who wants a tutorial on a specific feature, or is requesting a new feature.
In some cases the resolution will have to be scheduled for a later time/date. For example a shop might want help setting up a feature they're not currently using, and this is something we would generally schedule.

Thanks for checking in! We are doing just great and loving FloristWare. As we have used FloristWare before at our previous job we don't need any real assistance as we're already familiar with the program. If I or my colleagues have any questions, we will not hesitate to contact you! Thank you for all the support!

I would be remiss if I didn't mention that Deborah, and Julie, AND MARK completely saved my sanity (and quite possibly) a 4th generation flower shop. The customer service is second to none. Whereas my problem isn't fully resolved, it's a problem that is, in no way, of their doing; nor is it necessarily of any vested interest to FloristWare to have implemented a merely temporary solution (solely to 'get us thru valentine's day'). After being crippled by (wire service) for so long.. its refreshing to 'matter'.. Small family shops DESERVE to 'matter'.. and to be treated fairly and with respect. I'm rambling.. just had to step onto my lil soap box for a minute.

We are very impressed with the FloristWare point of sale system. Mark and the staff at FloristWare provide a straight forward, easy to use point of sale to manage a retail flower shop at an affordable price. Their customer service and responsiveness meet the highest of standards.

I just wanted to send you a quick note about the training we received today from Deborah. She had me and my father on two different phones – pounding her with questions. You have quite an asset in her. She KNOWS the system. I got more out of that 2 hour call than I have with "trainers" in house for a couple of days with (previous wire service POS systems).
