SaaS Technical Support Is a Different Job From SaaS Customer Support.

Escalation into internal teams

Some SaaS Technical Issues Belong With Your Engineers.

A technical support operation should not be rewarded for keeping every problem at the first level. Some issues require deeper technical work that only the internal team can perform.

The engagement defines what moves to internal teams and what context travels with the handoff , what was tried, what the customer described, and what was discovered.
