❓ What to Ask in the Community vs. the Support Portal

To make sure your question gets the right attention, here’s a quick guide:

Ask in the Community when you need help with:

  • Usability questions (“How do I…?”)
  • General product queries
  • Feedback on features or user experience
  • Sharing satisfaction, ideas, or best practices

Use the Support Portal when you have:

  • A system or service incident
  • A break/fix issue (the product is not working as expected)
  • A request that falls under a formal SLA (e.g. uptime, availability, performance issues)

🔄 Escalation

  • If a community post reveals a break/fix issue or incident, our team will escalate it into the formal support system on your behalf.
  • You don’t need to duplicate your question — we’ll make sure it’s routed correctly.

👥 Roles & Visibility

  • Posts in Community are monitored by Customer Success and Product in the first instance.
  • Escalated tickets are handled in the support portal by R&D, with SLA response times.
  • We monitor both channels weekly to make sure nothing slips through.

👉 Tip: When in doubt, start in the Community. If it needs escalation, we’ll take care of it.
