Priority is automatically calculated based on the priority matrix (shown below), using customer provided inputs (Impact and Urgency). Other considerations may also affect the assigned priority, including size, scope, complexity and resources required for the resolution to be carried out.
Snare support requests have 5 levels of priority, as defined below:
P1 - Highest : Critical issue that needs to be fixed immediately
P2 - High : Issue needs to be fixed with high urgency
P3 - Medium : There is an issue but service is still running
P4 - Low : Minor issue or easily worked around
P5 - Lowest : Trivial issue with little or no impact on progress
Priority is automatically calculated based on the following priority matrix:
Impact | Urgency | |||
Critical | High | Medium | Low | |
Extensive | P1 - Highest | P1 - Highest | P2 - High | P3 - Medium |
Significant | P1 - Highest | P2 - High | P3 - Medium | P4 - Low |
Moderate | P2 - High | P3 - Medium | P4 - Low | P5 - Lowest |
Minor | P3 - Medium | P4 - Low | P5 - Lowest | P5 - Lowest |
Support Requests submitted via email will default to a priority of P3 - Medium. The assigned support consultant will manually adjust the priority of these requests after their initial triage. |
Customers are asked to communicate the impact of a support request when submitting it via the support portal. Impact is a measure of the extent of the incident and of the potential damage caused by the incident before it can be resolved.
Impact | Definition |
1 - Extensive | The customer is experiencing an issue with the product affecting an enterprise or segment. |
2 - Significant | The customer is experiencing an issue with the product affecting a business unit or department |
3 - Moderate | The customer is experiencing an issue with the product affecting few users. |
4 - Minor | The customer is experiencing an issue with the product affecting a single user. |
Customers are asked to communicate the urgency of a support request when submitting it via the support portal. Urgency is how quickly a resolution of the incident is required.
Urgency | Definition |
1 - Critical | Product is not functioning and must be resolved with top priority. |
2 - High | Product can no longer perform primary work functions and must be resolved with high urgency. |
3 - Medium | Product's work functions are affected and must be resolved in an efficient manner. |
