Redcentric will migrate your user account across. You will login using the same username or email address, but you will receive an email with a link to reset your password. This is to maintain high standards of security in line with the Redcentric policy.

The SMAX dashboard displays service tiles which provide a direct link through to the relevant service and support offerings, articles, and latest news. The search bar and virtual agent allows you to search for help to diagnose issues and to place a service or support request. News articles which are relevant to your search will appear first in search results so that you are kept up to date on the latest issues or announcements.
By clicking on ‘Your Requests’ which is located to the right side of the search bar, you will be able to see a list of requests which allows you to keep track of your service and support requests. ‘Public requests’ show you requests already logged by colleagues within your organisation. This will allow you to see the status of service and support requests right across your organisation.
The virtual agent will provide ‘live chat’ in a future phase of SMAX, but not from launch. The virtual agent will initially provide an alternative way to search for information during Phase 1 of SMAX.
To self-diagnose an issue, either use the search bar or the virtual agent by typing in your issue e.g., slow connection. Articles will appear in the search results which assist with self-resolution. If you do not see an article to assist with resolution for your issue, please select a relevant ‘support request’ and complete the form.
The way we describe change requests has changed. Firstly, there are two types of offerings within SMAX. These are service requests and support requests. Change requests are now known as service requests. Incidents are now known as support requests. You can find service and support offerings by searching in the search bar and completing the relevant form. * Note, within our Service Definitions, Change Requests will now refer to Service Requests.
If you cannot find a relevant support request, please try using alternative key words relating to your query. Alternatively, if immediate technical report is required, please contact our support team on 0345 120 7070. For other queries or requests please contact your Account Manager or Service Delivery Manager.
To log a support ticket, simply type in key words relating to your issue using the search bar or virtual agent. Then select the appropriate Support (or Service Request) for completion. For other queries or requests please contact your Account Manager or Service Delivery Manager.

These are grouped as ‘Open’ or ’Closed’. ’Public requests’ shows other requests within your organisation. ‘Following’ allows you to follow a public request to get updates.
