Vivit will continue to have a presence within the IT Experts community with Vivit discussion forums linked via RSS feeds so you can keep up with posts and news from both sites. Vivit also has its own category for Vivit news and information.

New Support Customer Forums gain momentum!

HPSW Support’s new ‘Support Customer Forums’ are now live for 5 products! Customers who have a valid support contract for our Service Manager, Network Node Manager, Project and Portfolio Management, Functional Testing (QTP), and/or Quality Center products have been granted access to the new forums located in the HP Software Solutions Community. Now in Q3 we will extend this offering to 11 additional products!

This forum format will provide customers who have a valid support contract the opportunity to use a secure environment to discuss technical issues, best practices and "how to” type questions with other customers and with GSD Support Engineers. Our expert teams of HP engineers will be actively monitoring these forums to answer questions. Just one additional way GSD is looking toward the next generation of support and adding value to our customers through enhanced social media channels.

Customers are encouraged to try this method of getting help with product technical issues rather than placing a telephone call or logging an online support ticket. For issues or questions regarding these forums please send an email to swcommunity@hp.com. We look forward to growing this new forum community!

For any questions regarding accessing the new forums, please email swcommunity@hp.com. Users must log into the community, as well as have an SAID containing a valid support contract tied to their HP Passport account for these new forums to be visible.
