Contacting support

For users with paid accounts, Gliffy offers email support to assist you with your technical issues and errors. We focus on providing fast and high quality responses by email, so you’re always talking to a human that can help first-hand. This also allows us to easily collect and retain the information necessary to troubleshoot and resolve your issue.

Note: Gliffy does not offer phone support at this time — but please don’t misunderstand this as any lack of interest! We’d love to assist you with your questions.
