Service Level Expectations for Time to First Response

This section communicates our current Service Level Expectations (SLEs) for time to first response. These are expectations, which means that though we make every effort to achieve them, factors beyond our control may block us from doing so. 

Level 1

• Criteria for Classification: Request is an outage or problem causing the product not to be usable at all by the customer. Any security-related incidents are treated as Level 1.

• Time to first response: Within 2 hours of receipt of request during business hours. Requests received outside of business hours will be treated as if they were received at 9 A.M. on the next business day.

Level 2

• Criteria for Classification: Request is a Problem Report or Question

• Time to first response: within 24 hours of request or 10 A.M. CET the next business day, whichever is later.

Level 3

• Criteria for Classification: Anything that is not classified as Level 1 or Level 2

• Time to first response: As available​

  • Jira Server has been marked as end-of-life by Atlassian. If a support case requires support from Atlassian or is an issue with Jira and they are no longer offering support, our capability will be limited. Please see the support timelines provided by Atlassian at https://www.atlassian.com/migration/faqs#general  under the heading "Will server still receive enhancements or bug fixes?"

• Support with Databases or Application Servers

  • Atlassian provides integration instructions for getting their products to work on supported platforms, but we do not support configurations that differ from the procedures described in the Atlassian product documentation. We test on common platform combinations. However, we expect that you test our add-on in a development environment in order to ensure that your platform combination runs without issues. If you do encounter issues in any environment, please provide us feedback through our support channel-

• Resolving performance issues caused by host application configuration that is not aligned with generally accepted best practices. (We will assist in identifying the cause. However, it is the responsibility of the customer to resolve the root cause.) 

• Assistance with third-party application integrations or third-party plugins not distributed or sold by 55 Degrees.

• Product Training or Onboarding

• Subject Matter coaching, consultation, or training in topics related to our applications (e.g., statistics, metrics, lean, agile, etc.)

• Support in languages other than Swedish, French, or English.
