Support Policy – Xata.io Support portal

Welcome to Xata, we are excited for having you here!

Our Support team is looking forward to address any questions you may have in getting the most out of our service and tools.

This page provides information about our Support Policy, Levels of Service and Terms of Use.

1. How Can I Get Support from Xata?

You can get in touch with Xata Support in any of the following ways:

- By sending us an email at support@xata.io

- By filling in the Contact Support form with or without signing in.

- Chat with us on our Discord #help forums - from where we may redirect you to one of the above contact methods for more elaborate topics and personalized solutions

While all methods are equally great, we recommend filling in the form as it provides additional features that are not available on plain email or chat, such as indicating your request priority and selecting a Workspace (if you have joined more than one) to associate the request with. This helps us provide a quicker turnaround and more accurate responses!

2. How do I sign in to the Xata Support portal?

Sign in to our Support portal at https://support.xata.io with Single Sign On using a Google account, or fill in the registration form to create a username and password.

You can find more information in this page: "Signing in to the Support Portal".

3. What are the available Support Plans?

Xata offers Free and Pro level of Support, according to the subscription level. Refer to the pricing page for more details about the available subscription plans.

In order to chose the relevant workspace for your Support request and receive the respective Support Level for your tickets, use the Contact Support form while signed in to our Support Portal using the same email address with your Xata account.

Alternatively, you can note your workspace ID in your message if you use email (support@xata.io) or the Contact Support form without signing in.

4. What are your response times to Support Requests?

The Contact Support form provides the ability to indicate to us how time sensitive the request is by setting your Urgency level, which helps us prioritize requests.

The Free level does not provide a guaranteed SLA, but we strive to reply to every request within 3 business days. The Urgency of requests in the Free support level is automatically adjusted to Normal.

The Pro level provides priority support based on ticket Urgency, with a 2 business days SLA. We strive to get back to Urgent priority issues as quickly as possible.

5. How should I choose my request's Urgency in the Contact Form?

The request's Urgency field is reviewed by our Support team in order to address issues, depending on their perceived time sensitivity as reported by our users.

We trust our users will apply their best judgment regarding the request's urgency.

Here are some high level definitions to help you select the appropriate urgency level depending on the impact:

- Low: Non time-sensitive topics such as future enhancement suggestions

- Normal: The default level for all issues and questions while the relevant Xata workspace, databases and branches under it, all function well

- High: A Xata component such as a workspace, database or branch, is experiencing functional or performance issue to a limited extent while still responding to management and data operations

- Urgent: A Xata component such as a workspace, database or branch, is unavailable or failing to respond to critical management and data operations

Note that under the Free level of Support the enforced level of ticket Urgency is Normal, however we do maintain your selection for internal prioritization.

6. What kind of help can I expect?

Under the "Free" support level we provide break/fix support and general best practices. For consultative questions concerning implementation details that extend beyond Xata's components and APIs, we might offer consultation or point to our community channels.

Under the "Pro" level of support we provide break/fix support, best practices and consultative assistance in order to ensure you will be successful with the implementation and integration of Xata in your use case.

As for means of communication, we provide support over email and from our Portal. In case it is determined that a call could be beneficial in the course of processing your request, we will schedule and arrange the call details using our communications suite. We currently do not offer landline or mobile phone callback options.

7. What are your Support hours of operation?

For Free and Pro plans, our Support business hours are 9am-6pm CET on regular weekdays.

We can arrange for additional coverage under the Enterprise Plan.
