The Xen.Ed Customer Success Team
The Xen.Ed Customer Success Team consists of several groups within Crystal Delta, all working together to quickly answer questions and resolve support requests or technical issues:
- Pre-Sales & Post-Sales
Your first point of contact is the Account Manager for your region, and the Product team. - Customer Success
The Product team and our Level 1 Support will handle your onboarding and all requests for support. - Technical Support
We strive to prevent issues from happening. Still, in the event that you need technical support, the Support Level 1 will escalate to our the Xen.Ed Engineering and Development teams.
Available resources
The Xen.Ed teams are providing you with several options for support, depending on the need and severity, ensuring that you get an appropriate outcome every time.
Product Updates & announcements
Xen.Ed is constantly evolving! We release new features and fixes every week.
The updates are thoroughly tested before release to production by our DEVOPS an QA Engineers.
Depending on their importance, you may receive in-app alerts and email notifications. Whenever there is a potential impact on how you use the product, the Xen.Ed Product team will reach out directly to your organisation.
We also list all relevant updates on the Updates page of the Xen.Ed Support Portal.
Self-Help options
70% of customers prefer to resolve as many issues as possible on their own using self-help customer service options, according to the Zendesk Customer Experience Trends Report.
We have prepared this Knowledge Base and implemented it directly into Xen.Ed, so that you are never far from an answer to your question.
Powerful, simple and quick. Use Xen.Ed's smart and self-service widget from within the LMS and Studio. It is conveniently located at the bottom-right of every page once you are logged-in.
You can also search our Knowledge Base directly by using the help.xen.education website.
The KB is a living repository of information, constantly evolving with new content, screenshots, videos, and more. Do not hesitate to let us know how we can improve it!
Live Chat
Of course, self-service options don’t replace human support, as many customers still prefer speaking to a live agent when they have a question or an issue. Rather, the two should seamlessly work together to provide an exceptional service experience that keeps our customers happy.
From Xen.Ed's Smart Widget, you can initiate a conversation with your Xen.Ed Customer Success team if they are online, or leave a message for them to respond during Australian Business Hours - Do not worry, the widget will always show hours converted to your own time zone so that you know when we will be back.
Service Desk
In the event of an important request or urgent issue, you can lodge a support ticket with Xen.Ed's Service Desk. This will go directly to the relevant Level 1 Support engineers.
A Support representative will respond within your agreed SLA.
Default is 24 hours, during Australian business days, 9am to 5pm AEST.

Best practices
How to escalate an issue
If you have a request open for a particular issue, please do not open another case for that same issue.
Instead, you can Escalate your request from the Service Desk by visiting the ticket and then selecting "Escalate" from the right-hand side menu.
Naming
If, in the course of working on a case, it becomes evident that the title (summary field) is no longer appropriate, please ask the support engineer to change it on your behalf.
Action plans
Please don’t hesitate to ask your support engineer what the action plan is. That is, be sure you know what will be done next, by whom, and when.
Updates
Please watch for updates to your cases in your email inbox, or by checking the Support Portal.
After receiving a case update, please respond as quickly as you can so that we may continue to work with you. You're welcome to respond to case emails directly, though it is helpful to the LogRhythm Support Team if you reply through the portal instead.
