As we strive to provide maximum customer service, we will talk a bit more on clearly stating metrics, responsibilities and expectations. This article will mostly focus on the Service Level Agreement (SLA) for the Support Team, including Level 1 and Level 2 support.
We currently provide support through the following channels: email, chat, and Facebook (Messenger and comments).
You can also check our Terms Of Service here.
Support and maintenance
Level 1 Support business hours
We currently provide 24/7 support!
You can reach out to our support team using the chat widget in the bottom right corner of your Gorgias dashboard and on our website here, or via [email protected] email address.
Exceptions: Billing team (in charge of subscription) is available only during weekdays, Integrations team (in charge of 3rd party integrations) is available only during weekdays. We will still do our best to help with your request whenever possible!
Level 2 business hours
Our Tech Team's business hours are from 9 AM - 5 PM PST on weekdays.
If your issue has been escalated, you can expect a response in this timeframe.
Scheduled maintenance
Every scheduled maintenance is to be announced 72h before deploying on our status page.
All of the running updates will be shown in the banner of your Gorgias account as well as on our Twitter account.
Supporting global clients
Gorgias is supporting worldwide clients!
However, as much as we would like to respond to clients in their native language, our support team will always correspond to clients in English. With a high appreciation of teamwork, we always make sure that the conversations are transparent across the company.
Duty to acknowledge, respond and fix errors
Every message from our clients is treated with the same level of priority and we do have defined metrics during our business hours:
- Initial response time - up to 5 minutes
- Resolution time - up to 5 hours
- Escalation levels: Level 2
- Response time up to 24h after the escalation from Level 1 team
- Resolution time depending on the complexity of the issue
Response and fix times
Please note that the issues escalated to our Tech Team will have a higher resolution time if the issue cannot be reproduced on our end compared to the ones that we can reproduce.
- Our team will advise once we start to work on the specific issue and provide an estimated time of the resolution. Every issue is treated with the same level of priority and the clients are updated on the progress in a timely manner.
- Our tech team's response time is up to 24h from the moment our support team advises that the issue is escalated.
Exclusions
Our team will go above and beyond in assisting clients, but the support is not to be expected if the issue is directly connected with the third-party apps and services.
