Demosphere Adds Another Support Mechanism

Over the last several months, you may have seen more of Demosphere's presence in the social media arena.  This has included our Facebook page, where we are happy to report over 150 fans now, as well as our Twitter (@demosphere) presence that now has 85 regular followers.

We have now introduced another avenue for a direct connection to Demosphere.  On Twitter you can follow our Support Department from @diisupport.  With updates on current system statuses, we will also use @diisupport to provide real-time updates about any system maintenance issues. 

Excellent customer service is our primary focus, and this new tool will be invaluable when there is a need for rapid communication with our clients.
