Severity and SLA

Every ticket has a severity. The severity sets how quickly we respond and how often we update you. The targets below are goals we work to, measured in elapsed clock hours. They are not guarantees.

S2 HighA major function is broken and there is no workaround.4 h24 h8 h

How tickets are handled

Tickets are worked in priority order: most severe first, then the ones closest to their response target.

While a ticket waits for your reply the clock is paused. It starts again when you reply.

A resolved ticket can be reopened by replying within 14 days. After that, open a new ticket.

For a production outage, open the ticket as S1 and say so in the first line.
