User Reviews

Setup is broken and support hasn't done anything beyond basic troubleshooting more than tell me they would pass my concerns on to tier two support. It's been nearly a month and despite multiple outreaches on my end, I've still not heard from whoever tier two support is or gotten a resolution. Very disappointing since this is one of the selling points of the Gryphon premium subscription.
