After-Hours Support for Critical Issues

We understand that some situations demand immediate attention. For Critical issues, our after-hours support is available exclusively via telephone

Please be informed that Critical issues are extremely urgent matters, such as a total system outage or any other event that is severely impacting your operations.

During these holidays, after-hours support is available for critical issues only.

  • Day after Thanksgiving – Friday, November 28
  • Christmas Day (Observed) – Thursday, December 25
  • Day after Christmas - Friday, December 26

Release Freeze 

During the holiday season, we'll enforce a release freeze, halting the addition of new features and major updates to help drive focus toward system stability and performance.  

Our release freeze will be scheduled as follows:
• From November 13, 2025, through December 9, 2025
• From December 11, 2025, through January 13, 2026

November 12 | Production Release

To ensure system stability during the busy season, there will be no feature release on November 12. Any updates deployed to Sandbox environment on October 22 will not be released to production until after busy season ends.

 

Exceptions for Critical issues

If there are any incidents categorized as Critical, they will be addressed, even during the release freeze period.

Load Testing and Monitoring

We run tests regularly to make sure our systems can handle high traffic. Our systems are designed to automatically adjust to increased demand. We also added additional infrastructure during the holiday seasons to support the busy time. 

As always, we're keeping a close eye on things, 24/7, to catch any potential issues.
 

We hope this guide provides insight into our commitment to your satisfaction.

Should you have any questions or encounter any issues, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team. Thank you for choosing Extensiv, and we look forward to serving you during this festive time.
