Per-incident support: $50 per incident (up to 30 minutes of support).

Gray Areas: Occasionally there arises a situation in which it is not clear if the problem that the customer is reporting is due to CPC software, or due to software other than CPC software, or due to hardware which is not CPC hardware. CPC will be the entity that determines if the problem is due to CPC software or not. If the problem is not due to CPC software, CPC will not provide support.

Support Agreement: TERMS OF SUPPORT PROVIDED UNDER PRE-PAID EXTENDED SUPPORT, AND UNDER PER INCIDENT SUPPPORT, IS DESCRIBED IN THE “COMPUTER PROMPTING & CAPTIONING CO. (CPC) EXTENDED SOFTWARE SUPPORT AGREEMENT”. THIS AGREEMENT IS FOUND ON THE CPC WEBSITE AT:  http://www.cpcweb.com/support/supportagreement.pdf

Important Note for customers that purchased CPC software prior to January 28, 2010:
Since CPC’s inception in 1985, CPC bucked the software industry norm by providing free, unlimited updates to thousands of customers.

Beginning January, 28, 2010, this has changed. As described above, for software purchased subsequent to this date, CPC will provide free software updates for six (6) months from date of purchase of new CPC software, and for two (2) months from the date of purchase of a CPC software upgrade.

The reason is that CPC spends a very large proportion of its revenue on Research & Development, much of which is devoted to updates. Charging for updates (which are bundled with software support), will enable CPC to continue providing you with the world’s leading captioning software.

CPC will continue to provide unlimited free updates for software that was purchased prior to January 28, 2010.
