We've improved how we support our customers, as we aim to provide not only the highest quality instruments and test materials - but the service and support to match.
Taking on board customer and user feedback, we have re-developed our overall support offerings and called it TechSmart - our new name for Technical and Applications support.
Customers can access TechSmart support in many different ways; and we have summarised this below.
As a James Heal customer, you have access to our expert technical and applications support wherever you are in the world. We offer support in various ways; from our free online KnowledgeHub, to paid support, consultancy and training.
