Support Staff Information

The support staff are experts on our software platform. All support staff go through months of training covering the best practices for troubleshooting any software issues.

Response Times

Many questions have already been asked by other users of the software, and their responses can be found instantly by searching for the question in the "What Do You Need Help With?" box at the top of our Solution Center Homepage:



For all requests submitted to the Community Forum, as a ticket, or as an email, please allow 1 - 2 business days for a response, depending on the complexity of the request:




When submitting a request to the Marketplace, please allow 1 - 2 business days to receive a response, as it may take the 3rd party developers who are receiving the request some additional time to analyze the request before getting back with an answer:



We do have limited staff that works through the weekends and most holidays, but please note that our staff needs a break every once in a while too, but will be excited to respond to any requests as soon as they are available.

My last training session was 25 minutes long, does the extra 5 minutes roll over to extend other training sessions?


Each training session can be anywhere between 30 minutes to 1 hour in length, but if the full 30 minutes are not used in a given session, the remainder of the time does not roll over to additional sessions. To make the most of each session, we highly recommend preparing a list of questions ahead of time to maximize each session to its fullest. 


Urgent Tickets

In cases like these, please feel free to send an email to support@brilliantdirectories.com with "URGENT" in the subject line and the first support staff that is available to respond to the inquiry will do so. This will allow for quick support from a member of the support staff, but please be aware that the team member that responds to the inquiry may not be aware of all of the specifics of the project so we may require more information.


Note:  Please use the "URGENT" designation responsibly.  We absolutely understand the importance of each and every request that is submitted to us, but in order to make sure that everyone gets the urgent help when they need it, please only use this method of contact if the site is completely inaccessible, unusable, or is experiencing another related critical issue.  If we determine that certain users of the software are abusing this, we will have to filter all "URGENT" requests from those users to be treated as normal requests so that this channel can remain open and useful for its intended purpose for the larger user community.



Ticketing System for Websites

For a ticketing system to help your own website customers we recommend https://www.freshworks.com/freshdesk/, that is the one BD uses. Freshdesk alternatives: https://www.helpscout.com/blog/freshdesk-alternatives/


Using the Private Member Chat add-on is a workaround, as well: Utilize Private Member Chat to Provide Live Member Support
