  Learn about the support program

When you download this trial you are automatically entitled to limited online support during the trial period, at no charge.

The WebSphere Trial Program provides free online support designed to help you with problems or questions about the various trial products. You submit your problem or questions using an easy-to-use online tool, we confirm receipt within one business day, and respond back with a solution or workaround within three business days. Our WebSphere Trial Program also provides in-depth, how-to technical resources and answers to the most frequently asked questions.

This technical support is limited to:

  • Online support in English only.

  • Trials running on Windows® or Linux™ platforms only.

  • Specific technical issues associated with installation, configuration, and assistance with running any included samples.

Note: This free online trial technical support does not include 24-hour telephone or Severity 1 problem support.

We have a dedicated team that is committed to providing you with a complete answer as quickly as possible.

You will need your IBM user ID and password to submit your problem to IBM Technical Support. This is the ID and password you used to register for the trial. The user ID is case sensitive.
