Protection Host live chat support is available Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM local time in Brazil. You can also contact the vendor’s 24/7 customer support team via telephone, email, ticketing system, or through its contact form. The technical support staff seems friendly and knowledgeable. The rep that I contacted via email was fast and gave me the assistance I needed.
The vendor has a pretty detailed knowledge base as well.
