Support Rating
I have a very strong reason for the very best rating. Usually, Black Duck support is quick enough and they continuously keep me updated about the status if some issue is taking time for them to resolve. Overall, I am happy with the response I get from t customer care. I was planning an upgrade and I ran into an issue as the migrated Postgres database does not get identified by the new version of the hub. And all the projects, scans and the huge amount of work we put in comments under version are all lost. I immediately opened a case in the Black Duck customer portal. And in no time, I get a message back from the support for a quick WebEx session. And support was able to help me and my weekend was saved. Thank you for the quick support Black Duck. Appreciate it. I also have some questions on using Black Duck in an optimal way. I get helpful replies quick enough.
