In case of downtime falling below specified thresholds, users are entitled to credits on their subscription fees. The credit percentage varies based on the level of uptime breach and is applicable to Annual Prepay or Annual Month to Month contracts. Users must request credits within 30 days after the affected month, and upon validation, credits are applied to the following month's invoice or provided as a refund for prepaid balances, as per the customer's preference.

Firstly, Genesys employs on-demand scaling using elastic load balancing and auto-scaling groups, ensuring resources are added or removed automatically based on load thresholds.

In case of server failures, Genesys' system detects and replaces unhealthy instances seamlessly to maintain uninterrupted service. Furthermore, Genesys employs continuous deployment, allowing for quick fixes and updates without disrupting overall system functionality. These measures collectively ensure that Genesys' service remains reliable and resilient to potential disruptions.
