The priority assigned to a case represents the impact on revenue the case has on your business. You cannot change the priority once the case is saved, but you can add a comment to the case asking for a change of priority and providing a justification. The Support Team prioritizes cases based on the selected priority and based on the service level of the individual customer. To learn more about the actual targets for the first response time and the overall case resolution time, please refer to your contractual Service Level Agreement (SLA) with Nowtilus.
*Specifics about blocker cases: The Blocker priority is reserved for severe incidents seriously impacting the levels of quality and service for multiple or all of Nowtilus' customers; typically, the root cause is a major outage in Nowtilus' IT infrastructure. To keep an incident in Blocker status, Nowtilus may require that you make a technical contact continuously available to Nowtilus to cooperate efficiently — exchange expert knowledge, perform resolution testing, direct communication to experts on both sides etc. If you are unable to provide such a resource, We may reduce the priority of the incident. Likewise, we may increase a case’s priority to Blocker if the investigation suggests it is justified.
The Support Team applies a set of established processes and tools to analyze your case. Your support specialist will work with you to determine the nature of your case, reproduce the problem if required, answer specific questions, provide a temporary solution or workaround etc. Collecting diagnostic information may involve several iterations to isolate the problem and identify the cause. Therefore you may be asked multiple times to provide additional material.
Your support specialist may ask you to provide additional material such as reports, logs, dumps generated with diagnostic tools and utilities. Your continued assistance with the diagnosis helps to further identify, verify and progress your case toward resolution. To send a file to the Support Team, edit your case and click the “Manage File Attachments” button.
