Training and Support

Finalsite Support

Your website is in good hands, 24/7.

We Treat Our Clients Like Family (Because They Are)

At Finalsite, training and support means providing design, technical, and even moral support when you need it. While we have an entire Support Team dedicated to your success, "support" is something you'll get from everyone you encounter at Finalsite. From your dedicated Client Success Manager to our in-house marketing experts, we are determined to help you make the most of your website...or you know, restore a page when you accidentally delete it.

Real People. Real-Time Responses.

Finalsite's support team is one of our key differentiators. With more than 25 smart and talented staffers — we're well-equipped to handle your smallest and biggest requests.

With members at our HQ in Glastonbury, CT and throughout the world, we're here for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. (If working on the weekend is your thing.) We aim for a response time of one business day or less on all high priority issues, and no more than two to three business days during peak times. Critical issues are responded to twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week with a goal of a fifteen-minute response time.

Training Events

Training events happen throughout the year at Finalsite HQ in Glastonbury, CT and throughout the country.

We know learning new software isn't always easy, and we want to make that process as easy as possible for your website admins. From the day you begin with Finalsite, you'll have access to our entire library of online training — including videos and thousands of articles. However, if in-person learning better suits your learning style, we host one and two-day training events throughout the year to get you up-to-speed.
