Technical support scope
Identify the systems, equipment and issues to be covered. Agree how requests are raised, what access is needed and which matters require escalation to a hosting provider, internet provider or product vendor.
IT support, licensing and renewals
COG provides IT support and helps organisations in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, plan software licensing and renewals around their users, systems and operational requirements.
CLEAR REQUIREMENTS. CONSIDERED DELIVERY.THE RIGHT START
Keep essential technology ready for work.
Technology support works best when the responsibilities are clear. An organisation needs to know which devices and applications are covered, how to report an issue and who owns the relevant accounts. Licensing needs similar attention: user counts, product editions, subscription dates and vendor terms can all affect continuity and cost. We help define the support or licensing work you need.
What we can help with.
Maintenance planning
Set out agreed maintenance activities and responsibilities, such as configuration checks, application updates or backup review. Define suitable change windows and document important account and asset ownership information.
Licensing and renewal review
Review required editions, users and renewal dates against the intended use. Confirm product availability, purchasing arrangements and applicable vendor terms at quotation, with recurring charges and customer responsibilities made clear.

Your questions, answered.
Can you support technology that another company installed?
The scope depends on documentation, administrator access, licensing and any existing support agreements. An initial review helps identify what can be supported directly and where the original supplier or vendor must remain involved.
How early should we review software renewals?
Review them before the vendor notice or cancellation deadlines. Allow time to confirm user counts, required editions, pricing and purchasing arrangements. The relevant dates vary by product and agreement, so check the specific terms.
Do you provide a guaranteed response time for support requests?
Response expectations and coverage must be agreed as part of the support arrangement. Share your operating hours, critical systems and expected support needs so the scope can clarify priorities, exclusions and escalation responsibilities.
