FAQ

What is ISAAC Extended Coverage


ISAAC Extended Coverage is a five-year lifecycle protection and support package that includes:

• A 5-year hardware warranty (extended from 3 years)

5 years of Software Support & Subscription (SnS)

• For ISAAC Nemesis, a ready-to-use spare Quorum appliance is also included

What does Extended Coverage include?


For All ISAAC Hosting Platform (Prelude & Nemesis)

Hardware Warranty (Years 1–5)

• Extension of ISAAC hardware warranty from 3 to 5 years

• Worldwide next-business-day onsite service for qualified incidents

• Customer-replaceable parts shipped next business day

• All hardware components covered, including disks

Software Support & Subscription (SnS) (Years 1–5)

• Direct access to ISAAC experts

• Security patches, maintenance updates, and free major upgrades

• Technical assistance for ISAAC software and the underlying virtualization platform

• Ticketing and escalation to engineers/developers

Additional Benefits for ISAAC Nemesis Clusters

Spare Quorum Device Included

• Nemesis Extended Coverage includes a second Quorum appliance (hardware spare)

• Can be pre-installed and pre-wired for immediate failover if the primary Quorum device experiences an issue

This reduces downtime risk and ensures highavailability in mission-critical cluster deployments.

Why must Extended Coverage be purchased at the time of system order?


Because the bundle leverages special pricing, multi-year SnS, and (for Nemesis) hardware provisioning that must be configured up front.

It cannot be added once the order is finalized.

Is Extended Coverage refundable?


No. All Extended Coverage purchases are final.

How does Extended Coverage compare to buying support or warranty extensions later?


Significantly Lower Lifetime Cost

Purchasing warranty extensions later is much more expensive and may require system audits.

 

SnS Price Lock for 5 Years

Your SnS cost is frozen for five years, protecting you from future price increases.

 

Avoiding Reinstatement Fees

If SnS lapses, reinstating requires:

• Paying all missed years

• Upgrading to the latest major version

• A 20% reinstatement surcharge

 

Extended Coverage eliminates these risks entirely.

How does Extended Coverage help with budgeting?


Purchasing it with the system allows many organizations to treat it as CapEx.

Annual renewals or later warranty extensions typically fall under OpEx, making budgeting more complicated.

How does Extended Coverage improve system uptime?


• Next-business-day onsite hardware repairs

• Rapid part replacements

• Continuous software updates

• Direct support from ISAAC engineers and developers

For Nemesis

The spare Quorum device provides a hardware-level safety net for uninterrupted failover operations.

How does Extended Coverage future-proof my ISAAC system?


ISAAC evolves rapidly. With active SnS (included for all 5 years), you receive:

Continuous Innovation

• New features and capabilities

• Performance enhancements

• User experience improvements

New Ecosystem Integrations

ISAAC’s partner ecosystem expands as more manufacturers integrate our API.

Active SnS ensures your system gains access to all new device integrations and technologies.

Modern Security & Compliance

Regular patches and updates keep your system aligned with current IT/security standards.

Systems without SnS quickly fall behind and may lose compatibility with new hardware or integrations.

Does Extended Coverage extend the software license?


No. The license remains the same. Extended Coverage provides support, updates, and upgrades, not additional licensing rights.

Is Extended Coverage recommended for high-availability systems?


Absolutely. In fact, it is strongly recommended for:

• Multi-year attractions and themed entertainment venues

• Large enterprise and building-wide control deployments

• Government and mission-critical infrastructures

• Any ISAAC Nemesis cluster requiring automated failover

 

The inclusion of the spare Quorum device makes Nemesis Extended Coverage particularly valuable for environments with strict uptime requirements.

Where can I find the full terms?
