titleRequest priority (click to expand)

There are three priority types available:

  • Critical priority

  • High priority

  • Regular priority

By default the regular priority is selected.

Critical Priority issues are the highest priority tasks and require the fastest response time and solution. These are the emergency tasks. When we see the tasks like that, we abandon everything and rush to this one. Please, be very responsible when selecting this priority. As the “firefighters” don’t like fake calls. An issue of critical priority is one that blocks the functioning of your store. The web site is not reachable or customers can’t log in or submit an order.

High Priority tasks are the tasks that we solve first. If you have submitted other tasks, they will be ignored put on hold till the moment the high priority tasks are solved. For example, a marketing campaign is planned, and you would like to apply some changes in your design before the campaign starts, or there is something wrong with the coupon and the customer can’t use the promised discount.

Regular Priority means for us that it should be done quickly and with high quality. On these tasks we work at normal pace and try to work out thoroughly every detail of you request.
