Technical Issues Resolution Priorities

Reports to the Galooli support team might be one of the following request types:

• Issue

• Question

• Feature request

Each type is handled differently:

• An issue is handled according to the issue resolution procedure below

• A question would be answered as soon as possible.

• A feature request would be forwarded to the account manager and product manager for further discussions.

Issue Resolution Policy

Galooli classifies reported issues based on severity and is committed to addressing them according to the response and resolution times outlined in the table below.

The issue status is determined by Galooli, as some solutions are scheduled for resolution in an upcoming software release. All reported issues are managed through Galooli’s ticketing system, which serves as the primary platform for tracking response and resolution times. If access to the ticketing system is not possible, alternative contact methods will be acknowledged, and the issue will still be addressed. However, response time measurement is based on the ticketing system records.

Issue Handling Process

• New Issue – A newly reported problem that requires evaluation and classification.

• Response – Confirmation of issue receipt, verification of details, replication of the problem, and status update to the customer. Once verified, Galooli provides the customer with an update, workaround, patch, or resolution action plan. Galooli's support applies strictly to cases where a product fails to meet its documented functional specifications.

• Resolve – The final resolution of the reported issue, ensuring that the product aligns with its defined functional specifications as documented in the applicable product materials.

Automatic Ticket Closure

To keep support records accurate and ensure efficient ticket handling, tickets may be closed automatically after an extended period of customer inactivity.

This automatic closure may apply in the following statuses:

When a ticket is closed automatically, the customer will receive a notification explaining the reason for closure and the option to reopen the ticket if further support is required.

Issue Severity

An issue is not considered an error if:

• The Galooli product is combined or merged with any hardware or software not supported by Galooli

• The issue is caused by the Customer's misuse or improper use of the Galooli product

All issues identified by Galooli support or customers are assigned a severity level by the customer. Issues are addressed by their severity levels. Galooli reserves the right to change the severity level due to technical or business considerations.

Severity might change due to:

• A workaround has been found to customer satisfaction

• An upgrade to fix the issue is available

• The issue is due to operational misconduct

• The issue is the result of the customer's infrastructure

An issue is resolved when one of the following has been applied:

• A fix in the product

• An agreed workaround

• An agreed operational conduct

• An agreed-upon work plan to solve the issue within a time limit

The following is the summary of the four severity levels:
