We want to make it super easy to use Toolio and our Customer Support team is here to help! Our help center is a good place to start if you have any questions but keep reading to learn more about the different ways to get in touch with our Support team.

Our Support team is available to you at all stages of your Toolio journey, but once your implementation is complete for any given module, we will be your go-to contact for any post go-live questions or issues that you run into.

Toolio provides support via In-App Chat and over Email. Please see Support Hours here.

When to Contact Support

Our Support team is available to you at all stages of your Toolio journey. Once your implementation is complete for any given module, we’ll be your go-to contact for any post–go-live questions but feel free to reach out at no matter where you are at in Toolio.

You can reach us in two main ways:

In-App Chat

Toolio support is available to all members of your team via live chat, powered by Intercom.

  • Accessing Chat: Click the question mark icon in the upper right-hand corner of Toolio.

  • Who You’ll Talk To:

    • First, you’ll interact with Fin, our chatbot, who’s great at handling straightforward questions like definitions or formula clarity.

    • For more complex issues, you can always choose to speak to a Support team member. You can simply type "Talk to a person" or hit the respective button in the messenger.

  • Not a Toolio user? You can still get help via our Help Center at any time — just use the chat icon in the lower-right corner of the page.

  • In case of a rare outage: Please contact your CSM or IS through the Help Center.

Ticketing with Intercom

When you ask to speak with a person in chat, Fin will send you a link to create a support ticket.

  • You’ll fill in a few quick fields, including impact level and a short description (you can copy from your chat message if you’d like).

  • Once submitted, your ticket will appear in your Intercom window.

Tracking Your Ticket

To track your ticket, open the Intercom window (via the question mark in Toolio) and click the Tickets tab in the lower-right corner. There, you can:

  • See your ticket’s status

  • Review its impact level

  • Track updates as we work on it

All further discussion about your ticket happens in the same conversation thread — no need to switch between places.

Ticket Statuses

Your ticket will move through statuses so you always know where it stands:

  • Open – Ticket received and logged.

  • In Progress – Our team is actively working on it.

  • Waiting on Customer – We need more information from you.

  • Resolved – The issue has been completed and closed.

Impact Levels & Urgency

When you create a ticket, you’ll select its impact level from 1 (highest impact) to 5 (lowest impact). This ensures fair prioritization:

  • Level 5 – Highest: Severe business-critical impact. No workaround available.

  • Level 4 – High: Extensive impact on daily work for many or all users.

  • Level 3 – Medium: Moderate impact on daily work for some users.

  • Level 2 – Low: Little impact on business or users.

  • Level 1 – Very Low: Minimal or cosmetic issues with no effect on business operations.

Each level has Service Level Targets (SLAs) for acknowledgement, updates, and resolution, so you know what to expect. For example, Level 1 tickets are acknowledged in under 60 minutes and targeted to be resolved within 1 business day.

Reviewing Previous In-App Chat Conversations

If you want to get back to a previous intercom conversation, you can always do that by opening Intercom, clicking < if you are in a specific conversation, and click Messages to see all conversations in a single place. Below is a quick video to show how.
