Hi Glen,
My experience with Schneider Support over the last several months has been
very variable in terms of how accessible they are.  There have been times
when I ring right through, and others when I'm on hold for more than an
hour (I think my personal record was a total of 2.5 hours in one day due to
my call being dropped after 70 minutes of waiting. I have tried the online
request for support route several times and I can't remember if I've ever
received a call or email back from that, other than once when I got a call
back maybe 5 days after I submitted my request - clearly that is not a very
functional system.  I also think it would be quite helpful if there was a
way to reference a case number on line to see what the current status of a
support issue was if it was something that I was waiting for a more
information about or a higher tier response from, but as far as I know that
is not available to us.  When I do get through, I mostly feel like I've
gotten decent to really good support, although my impression is that there
is a fair amount of siloing between the various design, engineering, and
support departments which has caused frustration for me in getting clear
answers or solutions to issues and problems.
As far as the gateway, I am happy with the interface and functionality when
onsite, but the Insight 2 portal seems extremely limited and for the most
part useless from an installer perspective, mostly geared toward making
things easy to read for end users, but not supplying some real basic
information and functionality needed to even keep track of a site, no less
troubleshoot it offsite.  So far it is a big disappointment since I had the
impression that it was promised to give total transparency and
programability into a remote site.  I can only hope that Schneider is doing
due diligence in developing those capabilities before releasing them on us
- perhaps wishful thinking...
