Spinnaker Support: High-Touch, Surprisingly Affordable Third-Party Oracle Support

Over the years, Oracle has increasingly developed a software self-support model alongside a steep rise in the maintenance fees, further pushing their customers to use online forums to diagnose and resolve their issues. Regardless of industry sector, organizations everywhere are turning to alternative application support models which can improve service quality, reduce maintenance fees, and allow users to remain on their current software version until the need arises to switch to something better. Spinnaker Support is a leading global provider of third-party support, serves over 1,000 customers in 100+ countries—with 98.7 percent customer satisfaction ratings and maintenance fee reduction by an average of 62 percent. They outshine other service providers by delivering more comprehensive, responsive, and secure service. “Our unique personalized model delivers these services successfully without violating the intellectual property and copyrights of Oracle or jeopardizing application or technology stack performance, interoperability, and security,” asserts Bob Harland, SVP of Global Support Services, Spinnaker Support.
