A software defect is an error or fault in the product that causes it to produce an incorrect, unexpected result or error message, or to behave in unintended ways. This may or may not have a business impact. The severity varies and is expressed in the case priority. Refer to What are the Support case (ticket) priority definitions?.

When the Support team receives a defect case, they will attempt to reproduce the error and document the circumstances under which it occurs. They will attempt to find a workaround so that you can continue to use the product. They will then assess the impact of the issue on Datto's partners and assign an appropriate priority setting. Refer to How does the Support team determine defect priority?.

Datto will make commercially reasonable efforts to resolve all defects.

When a defect is confirmed, it is given a priority. This is done by evaluating various factors. This ensures that defects are resolved in such a way that it reduces impact to Datto's partners.

The following factors are taken into account:

• Functionality: The level of functionality and/or service availability loss the defect creates.
• Quality of workaround: A measure of the ability to achieve business function without a fix in place.
• Number of incidents: The number of incidents associated with the defect.
• Detectability: How likely a partner will experience this behavior when using the product.

• Urgent: A system-wide issue or outage preventing major business functions for multiple users. Stops business. The use of the product is completely degraded.
• High: A time-sensitive technical issue or perceived defect that inhibits daily business workflows. The use of the product is significantly degraded.
• Medium: A standard service request, technical issue, or perceived defect that potentially inhibits business function. The use of the product is slightly degraded.
• Low: A non-urgent service request, technical issue, or perceived defect. The use of the product is not degraded. All enhancements.

Once a defect has been confirmed, the Support team will contact you and explain the priority assessment. If you disagree with the assessment, you can request that the Support team escalates the case based on the impact on your business. In addition to the Support team, you can also reach out to your Account Manager or Success Manager to discuss a possible ticket escalation.

You can keep track of your cases in the Datto Help Center. Once you are logged in, click the Case tab and then click the Case Number or Subject of a case to view it.

If the Support team finds that the issue you reported is a feature request or improvement to the current functionality, they will direct you to raise this on the RMM Ideas page in the Datto Community so they can understand your business case and also measure feedback from other partners.
