Severity and time-to-respond
At nOps, we collaborate closely with our customers to ensure that any reported technical or business issues are given the appropriate level of priority. Our response times and the steps we take to resolve your problem are determined based on an evaluation of how the reported technical issue impacts your business. The more significant the impact on your business, the higher the priority assigned to the issue. It is a common understanding between both parties that the customer has the authority to specify the priority of their service request. When a request is marked as high-priority, a designated nOps customer success manager (CSM) will be at your disposal to assist while we work on resolving the issue. The following guidelines are provided to assist you in determining the appropriate priority level.Help desk support

Issues classification
When submitting a ticket, use your best judgment to identify the severity of the issue. For a
Severity Level 1 issue, you need not confirm with every user — a quick sanity check with a few
colleagues in different locations (to rule out local internet issues) is sufficient. Upon
engagement, the nOps support team will evaluate the situation and may, in its discretion,
reclassify an issue to the appropriate level.
