  a human being for any reason, there are various support channels
  available.

<h2>Professional Support</h2>

<p>
  Professional support packages are available for purchase. We also offer paid
  training for Vagrant and other HashiCorp products. If you are interested
  in hearing more, please contact
  <a href="mailto:training@hashicorp.com">training@hashicorp.com</a>.
</p>

<p>
  If you purchased the <a href="/vmware/">VMware provider for Vagrant</a>,
  you are eligible for limited basic support for issues relating to the plugin
  via email by contacting
  <a href="mailto:support@hashicorp.com">support@hashicorp.com</a>. Questions
  unrelated to the VMware provider are not covered by this support and may
  require the purchase of a commercial support package. Response times are
  typically within 48 hours, but can be up to a week.
