Updated over 3 months ago

Important: As of Monday, August 12, 2024, an updated customer portal is available through Apricot. On your first visit on or after this date, you will need to set a new password.

Note: The customer portal will require an email address and password. You will no longer be able to access the portal using Single Sign-On (SSO).

Accessing the Customer Portal

To access the customer portal while logged in to Apricot, click 'Help Center' on the left navigation menu.

This will redirect you to https://help.bonterratech.com/help. You can then access the Apricot Help Center by selecting the Apricot tile and view Support cases by clicking Cases at the top of the page.

Note: To view Support Cases, users will be required to have a login.

Apricot Help Center

The Apricot Help Center contains all of our free instructional, step-by-step materials for using and configuring your Apricot database. Type in feature names or keywords in the search bar at the top, or select a tile to scroll through articles of various topics.

Creating a Customer Portal Account

If you're creating a customer portal account for the first time, click "Signup" and fill out the name and email fields.

Logging In to the Customer Portal

If you previously had an account in the legacy customer portal, an account has already been created for you in the updated customer portal. Log in using the email address associated with your Apricot account and your password.

Important: On your first visit to the customer portal on or after August 12, 2024, you will need to set a new password using the "Forgot your password?" link.

Once you've logged in, you'll find yourself on the Cases page of the Customer Portal. Here, you can create a Support case or access previous cases you've submitted to the Apricot Support team.

Creating a Support Case

Important: Creating a case through the Customer Portal is for questions specific to product support. For inquiries related to billing, sales, or account management—please click here.

To create a new case, click 'New' in the top-right corner of the Cases page.

Enter the following required case details in the pop-up window:

Subject

A subject line or title relevant to the case issue.

Description

All relevant information regarding your issue: replication steps leading to the error, error descriptions, specific examples of the issue (withholding PII). This helps Support to best prioritize and resolve your case.

Priority

  • Critical: The software is stopped or so severely impacted that no user can reasonably continue to use or access the software.

  • High: There is a disruptive loss of use of the software. Important features are unavailable with no acceptable workaround; however, operations can continue in a restricted fashion.

  • Medium: There is a moderate to minor loss of use of the software or a feature/operation generated a result that was not expected. The impact is isolated and an inconvenience; however, use and access of the software can continue.

  • Low: The client requests information, an enhancement, or clarification regarding the software, but there is no impact on the use or access of the software.
