@Elastic, I will be giving you some numbers that will help you understand why things have been rough.
We are receiving 200+ tickets every single day, and we only have two people to handle them. So, providing personal support to each and every individual is pretty tough, apart from handling all the tickets and giving responses within 24 hours (which we internally try to do).
Why haven’t you hired anyone? We tried hiring multiple folks to reduce the workload, but considering we are a startup, we had to work 60-70 hours a week, and we need to ramp up very fast, which most people are not able to do. Finding someone with the right technical skills is also very difficult.
We have personally tried so many things to reduce the workload by a little bit, and most of them aren’t a fit. For instance, we introduced a lot of automations, but most of the time people require a dedicated person solving the issue rather than AI solving it.
I am not nagging about all the issues but just wanted to keep you aware of it. We are trying our best to manage all the customers, and I know it kind of sucks. I also remember the time when I was able to provide dedicated support to each and every individual, which I cannot do right now.
