Support
The promise of 24-hour technical
support from an office-grade computer
manufacturer may seem like a benefit.
However, Rockwell Automation offers
24-hour support by personnel trained
to work with industrial customers.
Troubleshooting a problem in an
industrial environment presents unique
challenges that are far beyond the
training and experience of the typical
tech support personnel at an office-
grade computer manufacturer.
Rockwell Automation offers unmatched
global service and support. With a
worldwide network of personnel that
are experienced in industrial
environments and the needs of
industrial customers, Allen-Bradley
products give you peace of mind that
you have the support you need.
