What is Vizrt PTPTC1 ProTek Professional for TriCaster TC1?
Vizrt PTPTC1 is a ProTek Professional support plan for the TriCaster TC1. It adds 24/7 phone access, priority contact and Vizrt's fastest response targets on top of the Standard plan's chat, software maintenance and remote support. It suits organizations where the TC1 runs live productions that cannot wait for next-day answers.
How does Vizrt PTPTC1 ProTek Professional work?
With the plan active, operators reach Vizrt by 24/7 phone, web form or live chat using the TC1's Support ID and receive priority handling. Vizrt targets a response in under 1 hour for critical issues, under 2 hours for high-priority issues and under 4 hours for normal requests. Software maintenance, remote system support, Viz University and the knowledge base are included.
Per the Vizrt distributor terms, ProTek is non-cancelable and non-refundable; coverage begins on purchase unless an alternate start date is requested, and it is invoiced immediately. Advanced Hardware Replacement (PTAHRTC1) can be added. Contact us to confirm the coverage term.
