Support & Training
I. | Support Overview |
The Demandware support model follows a 3-tier industry best practice to effectively handle inquiries at all levels. The table below outlines the support structure and escalation flow to address simple end user inquires to more complex technical issues requiring Demandware expertise.
Level |
Support Group |
Description | ||
Level 1 | Customer Service
|
Customer Service is the initial contact point which all end users of the site log their issues or questions. The function of this support level is to provide the primary communication channel for end-users as well as lo provide basic inquiry handling. Customer Service personnel isolate eCommerce platform issues from other types of user inquiries and escalate them onto the Solution Support team.
Responsibility: Customer or designated 3rd party. | ||
Level 2 | Solution Support
|
The Solution Support team is responsible for all inquires and issue resolution related lo the custom application deployed on the Demandware platform. This team is staffed by Demandware trained personnel and is typically provided by the same organization which was responsible for the deployment. This could be the customer’s internal IT staff, a Demandware certified partner, or directly by Demandware for a fee. This group is authorized to engage Demandware Product Support team for additional assistance in resolving product related issues.
Responsibility: Customer or designated 3rd party; or Demandware if Solution Support option is contracted. | ||
Level 3 | Product Support
|
Product Support is provided by Demandware to authorized, designated contacts trained or certified on our products. The Product Support team has ultimate responsibility for problem resolution of the Demandware platform and manages all technical escalation into Demandware engineering via support processes.
Responsibility: Demandware. |
Note: Support for custom application and configuration issues specific to each customer deployment are considered “Solution Support” and fall outside the entitlements of the “Product Support” offering. Solution Support can be provided by an authorized partner/integrator of choice or directly by Demandware for a fee.
Severity Levels
When reporting a case to Demandware technical support, use the following Severity Definitions to categorize the nature and impact of the problem you are experiencing.
40
Severity |
Definition |
Response Time | ||
Severity 1 | A condition whereby the product is substantially inoperable in a post-launch production instance with a high impact to multiple users of the site and a mutually agreed upon workaround has not been Implemented in such a way that the Issue has been mitigated. | Less than [**] response time [**] | ||
Severity 2 | A condition whereby a substantial product feature is not working or a substantial performance problem exists which causes the product to perform poorly, impacting multiple users of the site. A workaround is available and can be implemented. | [**] (as hereinafter defined | ||
Severity 3 | A condition whereby the product malfunctions but user operation is not substantially impacted. Also appropriate for “How-to Questions” and other low impact product inquiries. | [**] | ||
Severity 4 | A condition whereby a cosmetic product or documentation error exists and user operation is not impacted. Also appropriate for product enhancement requests. | [**] |
By design, the Demandware platform provides the customer with full control of the storefront, including the ability to make and deploy changes to the storefront. Customers are responsible for following best practices when making and deploying these changes to ensure the integrity and quality of the site is not compromised. Should a customer deploy changes which result in a Severity 1 or Severity 2 situation, our mutually agreed resolution plan would be to rollback the changes, stabilize the site and work to resolve the problem as a Severity 3 case in a controlled environment.
Examples of Severity 1 & 2 Issues
What Is |
What Is Not | |||
Severity 1 | [**] | [**] | ||
Severity 2 | [**] | [**] |
Customer has the ability to choose the severity of a support case when logging an incident, however, Customer shall follow the above outlined Severity definitions when doing so.

In addition, the Demandware product enables our customers to [**].
Although Demandware will continue to modify and optimize procedures related to backup/restore and disaster recovery over time, a general description can be found below.
2.2 | Product Development and Delivery Procedures |
2.2.1 | Scope |
• | Policies and Procedures |
• | Requirements and Specifications |
• | Defects and Feature Requests |
• | Ecommerce Application Source Code |
• | Grid Management Application Source Code |
2.2.2 | Strategy |
• | Repositories are located in our corporate office on secured RAID arrays |
• | Rolling weekly snapshots are maintained at a second secure location |
• | Major releases are published to DVDs held in escrow at Iron Mountain |
2.2.3 | Recovery |
• | Determine impacted systems or data and repair cause of failure or loss |
• | Restore data from most recent archive and roll forward any transactions |
• | Record and communicate event to impacted departments |
2.3 | Delivery Platform and Customer Configurations |
2.3.1 | Scope |
• | Authentication and Authorization Directory |
• | Dynamic Configuration Slate Database |
• | Static Device Configuration |
• | Security Certificates |
• | DNS Entries |
2.3.2 | Strategy |
• | Repositories are located in each POD on secured RAID array or are replicated over two redundant devices |
• | Rolling daily snapshots are maintained on a second POD RAID array |
• | Rolling weekly snapshots are maintained at our corporate office on a secured RAID array |
• | Static service configuration database also utilizes transaction logging |
2.3.3 | Recovery |
• | Determine impacted systems or data and repair cause of failure or loss |
• | Restore data from most recent archive and roll forward any transactions |
• | Record and communicate event to impacted departments and customers |
2.4 | Customer Data and Customization |
• | The Demandware Grid and member PODs (Points of Delivery) consist of state of the art applications and delivery platform engineered for on-demand eCommerce services and hosted at our provider’s world class datacenters. There are many levels of redundancy within the Demandware Grid and member PODs. In addition, Demandware has also prepared for a major disaster impacting the operation of a member POD within the Grid. |
• | Customer Realms have both a Primary POD for normal operation and a Secondary POD for temporary use if the Primary POD suffers a substantial event classified as a Disaster. Each Customer Realm consists of a Primary Instance Group and a Sandbox Instance Group. The Sandbox Instance Groups are not included in the recovery Plan. The Primary Instance Group consists of Production, Staging, and Development instances and only Live Primary Instance Groups are included in the recovery. |
• | Recovery of any Customer implemented external service is not included in this DR Plan. It is the Customers responsibility to determine the method of recovery for these integration points. |
• | Should a Primary POD encounter a disaster that prevents it from functioning, Demandware is prepared to restore production level services on a predefined Secondary POD. The Secondary POD will be considered temporary and utilized while the Primary POD is restored to operational status. The Secondary POD is a fully operational environment hosted in a different datacenter from their Primary POD. However, this Secondary POD also serves as the Primary POD for other customers in that region. |
• | For purposes of this DR Plan, a disaster is considered any incident or event that results in an extended and major (multi-hour) interruption in operations of a Primary POD supporting Customers Live Primary Instance Groups. Major interruptions that could contribute to prolonged failure of a POD include (but are not limited to) datacenter, network connectivity or critical POD system |
failures. For disruptions in service that affect only a portion of Primary PODs’ operations, a subset of these recovery procedures could be used to restore normal operations and a Disaster will not be declared. |
• | Once the Primary Instance Groups and Primary Instance Group Data have been restored and other system configurations restored, the Secondary POD will be ready for testing of these Instances. The Technical Operations Team will be responsible for initial testing before releasing Instances to the Customers. This includes testing the Demandware Reference Application. Customers are responsible for testing any external integration services. |
• | Testing and exercising the Disaster Recovery Plan helps to verify that the recovery procedures work as intended and that the supporting documentation is accurate and current. Testing also provides an opportunity to identify any omissions in recovery procedures or documentation and to determine whether personnel are adequately prepared to perform their assigned duties. Therefore, a comprehensive representative exercise of our DR Plan and support by a Secondary POD will be performed on an annual basis. |
• | As disasters are typically complex events with compounding factors, a particular recovery period is difficult to predict and therefore Demandware makes no representation that recovery is possible in a set period of time. However, in most cases we would expect recovery within 24 hours and target recovery of the core service at 8 hours. |
• | Demandware reserves the right to modify the Disaster Recovery Plan as necessary to meet the evolving needs of our business and customers. |
