Instead wouldn't it have been better to simply pen your positive experiences and support for the said software and administration? that way everyone would read it and not be offended in any way. Indeed it instantly brought to mind the American political utterings found on other social media and forums. Opening your mouth and unloading abuse is not a good way of voicing your opinion really, is it. 'I'm so tired of WHINY cheap bastard hams, screaming to anyone who will listen, when they find out that they are not smart enough to operate, or are too cheap, to pay for a licence for software, that works very well' Re: THE SMALL HERD OF CHEAP, LAZY, NOT TOO BRIGHT WHINY HAMS They just download an app, find it doesn't work, then post a review on line saying 'it doesn't work. Some consumers don't describe the problem beyond saying 'it doesn't work', then moaning they just want it fixed when the poor support person actually tries to take them through a diagnostic process. I've done support for years (not usually phone based, but I do sometimes). That said, I think some consumers need to do more to help themselves. A lot of companies, at best, fob you off by directing you to a support person reading off a script.

When I logged a problem with Apple Remote Desktop on Apple's support forums, the bot noticed a pattern and notified the development team, who actually got in touch to discuss the problem. If a company is logging things properly, then a quick review of the logs should show if there is a problem with a particular package, and if necessary, the logs can be bought to the attention of the developer. The company support agents need to actively engage with the customer, and hopefully resolve the problem, logging what they do.
