Additional Information
Tier 3 sits in between Support and Engineering and as such this team contains our most technically gifted support agents. The level of understanding they have of our product range goes well beyond the front end functionality. As the main escalation point for Tiers 1 & 2, Tier 3 conducts deep investigations by using advanced tools, such as Splunk, LTI Launcher & Postman to name but a few. Their ability to read and write from our databases, allows them to
resolve many native issues that only engineering could have resolved historically. Since the creation of this team over 90% of cases that needed engineering support, are now resolved within support! This ensures a far quicker time to resolution for tickets and a greatly improved support experience for our end users. Tier 3 have built strong working relationships with the engineering and product teams and attend daily stand ups with these teams, to share information on bugs, fixes and scheduled releases.
