Does anyone actually enjoy contacting technical support to troubleshoot industrial system issues? (Insert crickets chirping.) Aside from being stuck with a problem you can’t fix on your own, getting support can be a real pain. Typically you’re stuck with one of two subpar support options: a makeshift setup that pulls your technical staff away from other projects, or a complex service that connects you with non-technical personnel who read from a tired script, going over the same obvious steps you've already tried. Either way, it’s an incredibly frustrating time-suck that rarely results in a timely solution.

At Gray Solutions, we tackle technical support differently. We’re an extension of your team, ready to deploy our technical knowledge and creative problem-solving whenever you need us, all day, every day.

Fixing support

Our approach to technical support began in an unconventional way. We sat down and made a list of all the things we personally hate about technical support. It was a long list! Next, we identified critical failures of current support models, which empowered us to redefine what it means to provide best-in-class technical support for our customers.  

Immersive support

We provide comprehensive support from the moment your system enters commissioning. Our technical support experts are there from the beginning, going onsite with the commissioning team to immerse themselves in the details of your project to give you true end-to-end service.

Curiosity-driven experts

Close your eyes and imagine a support team. You're likely picturing a call center jam-packed with staff reading from the same playbook. Not on our watch. Every member of our support team is a seasoned pro, armed with diverse technical know-how. Like all Solutioneers, our support experts are driven by an innate sense of curiosity and a hunger for knowledge. If they’re not busy supporting you, they’re leveling up their technical skills. 

Support that never sleeps

Equipment doesn't care about business hours, and downtime costs a fortune. We’ve got you covered. Our highly trained team of U.S.-based experts are just a phone call or email away, 24/7. 

Service matters

Sure, technical training is important, but our support experts go beyond that. They don't just know their stuff; they also know how to treat customers like VIPs. We believe in learning from the best, which is why we invest in top-notch customer service training programs for our support team. Our goal is to be nothing short of world-renowned providers of hospitality-focused service. Because it's not just about great technical support—it's about giving you an all-around amazing experience.

Supporting you securely

Cybersecurity is never an afterthought for us—it's our foundation. We prioritize implementing top-notch cybersecurity best practices, and that extends to how we provide support. We understand the critical importance of safeguarding your systems and data, especially in regulated industries.
