Requesting a staging environment is easy!  A staging environment is needed when you are adding customizations or upgrading to a to new version of Saleslogix.  Just call the Cloud Support Team at: 1.800.944.5709 and let the representative know that you want to request staging server time. 

All they need to know is:

• Your purpose/what you plan to use staging for (ie - testing customizations or upgrading)
• Your name & company
• Your Business Partner's name & company
• Your requested start date
• Your requested amount of usage days
• The version of Saleslogix you need set up in

The Cloud Operations team completes the follwing actions for you:

• Makes final copoy of database and Filestore (D: ) volume
• Configures the database connections
• Switches the alias from Staging to Productioin

Here are some facts about how staging time works:

• Customers receive one day FREE per month of staging server time of their contract
• They receive all of their credits up front
• Staging Server time is measured on a daily basis – any # of hours used = 1 day
• It will take 1-2 days for a staging environment to be setup
• They will receive an email from the cloud operations team when their staging environment is setup
• Their environment will be shut down at midnight on the last day requested unless we are contacted regarding an extension.
• Once the free days are up the pricing is $20 per day/server.
