The performance and stability of IT systems can often be affected by factors that are outside our reasonable expectation and control. It is not uncommon during or immediately after a migration to run into previously unanticipated issues. We will use commercially reasonable methods to resolve these issues in a timely manner.
This statement is an assurance that we communicate beforehand to set the right expectations with regard to a few things that may need to be worked through during or following your migration, we ask for your patience in this process. We will also be compelled to bill all time spent to address such issues given such issues are typically glitches in the product or software.
