Getting help

Getting help via the workbench

If you encounter a problem or need help understanding how the Biomedical Genomics Workbench works, and the license you are using is covered by our Maintenance, Upgrades and Support (MUS) program ( https://www.clcbio.com/support/maintenance-support-program/), you can contact our customer support via the Workbench by going to the menu option:

        Help | Contact Support

This will open a dialog where you can enter your contact information, and a text field for writing the question or problem you have. On a second dialog you will be given the chance to attach screenshots or even small datasets that can help explain or troubleshoot the problem. When you send a support request this way, it will automatically include helpful technical information about your installation and your license information so that you do not have to look this up yourself. Our support staff will reply to you by email.
