How we are preparing

Support

Our Support team will always be your key partner in managing any technical challenges you might experience. Response times and service will follow our SLAs during peak season.

Your CSM will keep you informed in case of downtime on private instances. For shared instances, you can easily check our Bloomreach status page, which provides updates about the platform's operational status and health. We'll also inform your CSM about any notifications directly affecting your account.

To improve our support service even further, we are upskilling our support team, focusing on recommendations and predictions, APIs, webhooks, Jinja, weblayers, mobile messaging, tracking, fetching and segmentations, experiments, and more.

Engineering

Our Engineering team will be upscaling platform capacity on instances according to the peak planning form shared by your CSM. If you have not shared this data with us, we will still monitor and upscale, only with less direct input from your team.

Deliverability

Our Deliverability Specialists will be available to you for consultations during working hours over two weekends in this peak (November 23th-24th and 30th-December 1st). In case of urgent questions, please feel free to reach out:

Client Services

The Client Services team is preparing to match all clients with not only their CSM, but also Business and Technical Consultants who will be ready to help you prepare for successful peak times.

All consultants will be focused mostly on helping you prepare for peak season, but can also assist you during working hours during this period.

Notice: European Union Restrictions On Provision of Bloomreach Software to Russia (July 2024)

We understand the availability of the Bloomreach services is important to your business. We want to remind you that European Union Council Regulations prohibit the direct or indirect provision of enterprise software including the Bloomreach services to legal persons and entities in Russia.

Bloomreach takes its export control obligations seriously and expects its customers to do so as well. We, therefore, expect our customers and partners to not provide access to Bloomreach products and services to their employees, users or affiliates in Russia without legal authorization. Bloomreach reserves the right to deploy technical measures to prevent such access in the future.

Please reach out to your Bloomreach account team if you believe an exception should be made and we will work with our legal team to respond accordingly.
