It Is Impossible To Get A Pre-Sale Question Answered
I sent a message through their online chat with a pre-sale question. I received a response by email, asking me to answer a question for them. Their email states "you can reply back to this email to respond", however if you reply to their email, it gets sent back to you as undeliverable. If you click the link in their email to respond, it takes you to a page on their website where you have to start from scratch, and message their chat with your original question again, which you will have to wait for a response by email, which you won't be able to reply to. It's strange that a company like this doesn't have this simple communication process sorted out, because it makes it impossible for a potential customer like me to get a question answered.

Update 1: We take the complete responsibility of this, and we agree that this issue is real, we tried testing it now, and we can also see the email response option results in failed email delivery. This is because we are using some external live chat application, and it has some bugs. We have already contacted the chat application service provider to fix this issue. We once again apologize for all the inconvenience caused.
Update 2: We were able to fix the issue with our chat application email notification service, now you can reply to the email you received from us directly from your mailbox. The reply to an email will no longer be undeliverable. You can safely respond to the email, and we will get your response to our system, so we can assist you promptly on it.
We truly thank you for notifying us about this bug in our system. If you are interested in any of our services, we will provide you with a discount as a gesture of gratitude.
