3. MANDATORY GUIDELINES ON DEVICE CAPACITY UNDER THE PROFESSIONAL AGREEMENT

The Professional Agreement is specifically structured for environments managing up to one thousand (1,000) network devices. In this context, a "network device" is defined as any individual piece of network hardware managed, monitored, or configured using the rConfig software.

Installations exceeding this capacity may temporarily surpass this threshold due to the dynamic nature of network environments. However, consistent or significant exceedance beyond this number is not supported under the Professional Agreement. Should the number of managed devices consistently exceed one thousand (1,000), rConfig reserves the right to terminate or withdraw support, maintenance, and other subscription benefits associated with the Professional Agreement.

For installations that routinely operate beyond this device limit, or require advanced support, customization, or enhanced performance capabilities, it is imperative to migrate to an Enterprise Agreement. This Agreement is designed to support larger installations with advanced needs, offering extensive support, customization options, and additional resources to align with the organization’s operational requirements.

Failure to adhere to these guidelines or to transition to an Enterprise Agreement when required may result in adjustments to service provision or agreement terms. Customers operating above the device capacity outlined are urged to contact rConfig to discuss transitioning to an Enterprise Agreement that aligns with their expanded needs.

This policy is enforced to ensure optimal performance and efficiency of the rConfig software across varying scales of network management. rConfig maintains the authority to enforce compliance with these guidelines and to recommend or require changes in the contractual agreement to best serve the interests of both parties.

4. TECHNICAL SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE

The Technical Support and Maintenance Terms and Conditions, which are incorporated by reference, apply if Company has purchased Support. After the Support Period or service subscription period specified in the applicable invoice has expired, Company has no further rights to receive any Support including Upgrades, Updates and telephone Support. rConfig may change the Support offered at any time, effective as of the commencement of any Support renewal period. The software may continue to be used beyond a support period under these terms in perpetuity.

4.1 Fair Use Policy for Support Requests: To ensure the equitable distribution of support resources among all our customers, rConfig adopts a fair use policy for support requests. Customers are encouraged to make reasonable use of support services. Excessive use of support services, as determined by rConfig in its sole discretion, may result in the customer being advised to seek a higher level of support package or an enterprise agreement for more dedicated support resources.

4.2 SLA for Support Requests: rConfig is committed to providing timely and effective support to its customers. For Professional Agreement holders, our support request SLA includes:

  • Initial response within 24 hours for critical issues.
  • Resolution or workaround within 3 business days for critical issues.
  • Initial response within 3 business days for non-critical issues.
Resolution times may vary based on the complexity of the issue and customer cooperation in troubleshooting.

4.3 rConfig reserves the right to change the Support Policy at any time.

4.4 SLA for Feature Requests and Enhancements: Feature requests and enhancements are vital for the evolution of rConfig. While we welcome and encourage feedback:

  • All feature requests will be evaluated by our product team, and the inclusion of any feature will be at rConfig's discretion.
  • Feature requests under the Professional Agreement will be considered and prioritized based on their applicability to the broader user base.
  • Estimated timelines for the review of feature requests are 30 days; however, implementation will depend on the current product roadmap and resources.

4.5 Modification and Customization: Under the Professional Agreement, any modification, customization, or alteration of the software or its dependencies is strictly prohibited. rConfig is designed to operate as delivered by rConfig without any modifications.

(30) days of receiving rConfig’s notice of the breach. Upon termination, Company must promptly return, destroy or delete permanently all copies of the Software and Documentation.

5.3 End-of-Life: Company’s right to use the Software, and any features of the Software, is subject to the End-of-Life Policy. Upon the End-of-Life date of a Software or any feature of a Software (as described in the End-of-Life Policy), Company’s right to use the Software or feature will terminate.

6. PAYMENTS; TAXES; AUDIT

6.1 Payments: Unless Company is purchasing the rConfig Products through an Authorized Partner, in which case payment obligations will be exclusively between the Authorized Partner and Company, Company will pay rConfig the fees for the rConfig Product within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. All payment obligations are non-cancelable and non-refundable. If Company considers an invoice is incorrect, Company must contact rConfig in writing within thirty (30) days of the date of invoice to request an adjustment or credit.

6.2 Transaction Taxes: If Company purchases the rConfig Products directly from rConfig for use or resale, Company will pay all applicable transaction taxes, including sales and use taxes, value added taxes, duties, customs, tariffs, and other government-imposed transactional charges however designated (and any related interest or penalty) on amounts payable by Company under this Agreement (Transaction Taxes). rConfig will separately state on its invoices the Transaction Taxes that rConfig is required to collect from Company under applicable law. Company will provide proof of any exemption from Transaction Taxes to rConfig at least fifteen (15) Business Days before the due date for paying an invoice. If rConfig does not collect the required Transaction Taxes from Company but is subsequently required to remit the Transaction Taxes to any taxing authority, Company will promptly reimburse rConfig for the Transaction Taxes, including any accrued penalty or interest charges if the failure to timely collect and remit was not due to the fault of rConfig.

6.3 Withholding Taxes: All payments due from Company will be made free and clear and without deduction for any present and future taxes imposed by any taxing authority. If Company is required by applicable law to deduct or withhold income taxes from amounts payable to rConfig under this Agreement (Withholding Taxes), Company will remit, and provide rConfig with evidence that Company has remitted, the Withholding Taxes to the appropriate taxing authority and pay to rConfig the remaining net amount. Company will provide written notice to rConfig of its intent to withhold (including details of the amounts and legal basis for Withholding Taxes) at least fifteen (15) Business Days before the due date for any payments under this Agreement and will cooperate with rConfig to reduce any Withholding Taxes. If rConfig provides Company with valid and official documentation issued by the relevant taxing authority for a lower rate of Withholding Taxes, then Company will apply the lower rate.

6.4 If Company purchases the rConfig Products through an Authorized Partner, the obligations regarding Transaction Taxes or Withholding Taxes will be the exclusive responsibility of the Authorized Partner or Company, and the rules in Sections 6.2 and 6.3 do not apply as between rConfig and Company.

6.5 Income Taxes: Each party is responsible for its own income taxes or taxes based on gross revenues or gross receipts.

6.6 Audit: rConfig may request, and Company must provide within thirty (30) days from the request date, a Software-facilitated system-generated report ( System Report) verifying Company’s Software deployment. Company acknowledges that the System Report is based on technological features of the Software that provide Software deployment verification. If the Software does not contain technological features that provide Software deployment verification, Company will prepare and provide to rConfig an accurate Software deployment verification report for the Software within thirty (30) days from rConfig’s request. rConfig will only request the System Report (or Company’s prepared Software deployment verification report) once per year and will not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Company’s business. If a System Report or Company’s prepared Software deployment verification report identifies that Company is out of compliance with the license terms of this Agreement, Company will be required to purchase the additional licenses and pay any reinstatement fees associated with the licenses and Support. rConfig may also charge an out-of-compliance fee.

7.4 Company will immediately, and at least within seventy-two (72) hours, notify rConfig if Confidential Information of rConfig is used or disclosed in breach of this Agreement.
