Lever Suspension Implications

Follow

Lever requires all customers to have an active subscription in order to maintain platform access. In the event of a nonpayment or a customer's failure to renew their subscription before the end of their current subscription term, Lever reserves the right to temporarily suspend services. Lever does not take this step lightly. We understand that our customers rely on our services for efficient and continuous operations and we have every intention of partnering to ensure that renewals can happen in a timely manner and services remain available. In advance of a suspension event, the customer will be notified several times in writing. Oftentimes, a red banner will also be placed on the customer’s Lever instance in advance of a suspension event. If a suspension event does occur, services will be restored within one business day of contract signature.

This article outlines the impacts of a suspension event. While it aims to provide an overview of what to expect, it may not be comprehensive and the impacts may vary from customer to customer based on the specific configuration of each environment.
