- A “Network” can consist of one or more “Clients”, for example, the app can support a holding company with multiple independent operating companies
- The application is ”configured” at the client level allowing for unique workflows and business requirements across individual holding companies
- A separate business unit hierarchy can then be configured for each client
Multi-tenant Benefits

ELEVATE Support System
Customer support takes on a number of dimensions for us at ELEVATE. It begins with every “logon” where we provide stats on system performance and up to date release notes on the most current changes to the platform.
ELEVATE provides a customized ITIL-based issue/case management system to accurately document platform issues and provide timely resolution on all SLA’s. ELEVATE connects all key stakeholders together on one page and keeps everyone updated on any outstanding issues.
Tickets are automatically routed to the appropriate responsible team member and the results are communicated in real time to the requester. The system also tracks issue by type so that over time continual process improvement can be implemented.
Product Management
Our customer support links with our product management team.
You have got to start with the customer's needs and work backward. You can't start with the product and try to figure out how and where you are going to sell it.
