Start a Chat session, track conversation history and get an instant reply to your inquiry,
Create a Support Ticket and monitor the case status.

Knowledge Base - What's that and how can it help?

Knowledge Base provides you instructional articles and How-to manuals in response to the most common questions. It is the first source of information about Perfect Gym system and application. It consists of four parts:

Fundamentals - it describes how to configure and use the PGM system and other, most frequently used modules,
Add-ons - it describes the configuration and use of additional modules and applications,
Integrations - it describes the possibility of connecting with external devices and third-party software,
How we work - it deals with the rules of cooperation with Perfect Gym and includes information on getting support in Perfect Gym.

Knowledge Base will help you when you are looking for system configuration instructions, want to check if the settings you have used are correct, or when you search for information on new functionalities and want to learn more about the possibilities of using the system.

How to use Knowledge Base?

If your query is detailed and concerns a specific function - enter a keyword in the search box and press "Enter". In the results list you will find the articles that suit your query the most.
If your query is more general - go to the main menu and select the appropriate module or application. You will be redirected to the table of contents. Select the area you are interested in and click on the article.
If you have not found a solution - go to chatbox!

Chatbox - When to use it?

Use the chatbox if you want to get a quick response to direct questions, i.e. where to find a certain functionality.

How to use chatbox efficiently?

Try to describe your question in a simple but comprehensive way. You can take and attach photos or screenshots to show which functionality you are referring to. You can use a free program, such as Screenpresso, or keyboard commands for Windows or MacOS. Remember that the more information you provide, the more precise answer the Perfect Gym Support Team will be able to provide.

The chat transcript will be available in GetSupport message 1 hour after your conversation with an agent.

Important: If you get the "Leave a message" or "Our agents are not available" note in the Chatbox, your inquiry will create a Support Ticket and a new case will be automatically submitted; however, you will not be able to see it in the Get Support tool until after the Perfect Gym Support Team has seen it.

Support Ticket - When to use it?

Submit a Support Ticket and create a case if you:

have searched the Knowledge Base, but did not find the right answer to your question,
were not able to reach us on Chat,
have talked to us on Chat, but your issue could not be solved that way,
your case concerns a bug or system failure.

Important: Before submitting a Support Ticket, please see the severity levels definitions, so that you knew, which priority to declare for your case.

How to properly submit Support Ticket?

Updates

From R.89 system update, we have made some significant visual changes and introduced new enhancements to the Get Support module. The aim is to improve the overall user experience and provide a more organized and streamlined view of case details.

Here are the vital changes:

Acceptance of Proposed Solution - a new feature that allows users to accept proposed solutions directly within case details. You and your team can indicate your acceptance of a proposed solution, providing clearer communication between you and our Perfect Gym Support Team.
Enhanced Case Details View - the width of the case details view has been increased to provide a more spacious and comfortable reading experience. We have also grouped the information into four sections: Basic Info, Case Info, Conversation, and Case History.
Improved Case Header - you can add the subject of the case to the top of the case details view. This change allows for identifying the main topic or problem quickly. We have included the case reporter's information, providing immediate access to the contact details of the person who raised the case. The message associated with the case has now been placed at the top, ensuring that the important communication is easily visible.
History of the case - we have relocated the history of the case to the bottom of the case details view, providing a chronological overview of all actions taken.
Right Sidebar - we have introduced a new right sidebar that displays additional information about the case: the details such as case type, number of attachments, and TeamViewer information, enabling users to access relevant information at a glance. These visual changes and feature additions aim to optimize the Get Support module, making it more user-friendly and efficient for handling customer cases. We believe that these improvements will enhance your experience and help you manage your cases more effectively.
