Support Policies
Professional reliability and direct access to help when you need it most.
At Ivy League Software we strive to have our support be superior to our products, not an easy task. To accomplish this we started right out with support items such as a phone support line, discounts on preprinted items and a choice of a support subscription service or a pay as you go plan.
There are dozens of users of Ivy Route, all giving us input on how to keep it the best software package for newspaper distributors. There have been hundreds of enhancements added to Ivy Route that were requests from users ... while at the same time a user of the first DOS version could sit down in front of the newest version and perform all their tasks with the absolute minimum of changed keystrokes.
