We're currently working to improve the support case management system, and we'd love to get your feedback on the beta version.

You can lodge a test support case using the new interface here and provide your feedback here

Looks good.

Small quirk I found:
When you hover over the "?" for Severity, there is a link to click to get a list of the SLA's, but you can't click it because as soon as you move off the "?" the bubble that contains the link disappears (in Firefox).

-edit-

When I tested with an account with 'self support' the only indication that I couldn't raise a support ticket was:
Support Level: No results match

I think it would be more intuitive if it had a banner at the top eg. "Your current subscription does not include Red Hat support, to purchase support visit the following page link"

Also, when I submit (with the self support account) I get the following error:

Error 404 Not Found Message: {"code":"404","message":"Unknown group"}

Possibly due to the fact that there is no value available in the 'Support Level' drop down?

-last edit-

It would be a nice addition if the 'Severity' drop down provided some insight into the SLA being selected without having to leave the page to look at the table here:
https://access.redhat.com/support/offerings/production/sla.

eg. When you select the severity, based on the subscription level it could provide details on what to expect when selecting that severity.

So in the scenario where I have a premium subscription selected and I select 'Severity 1', a text box below the drop down could provide the detail "Initial Response: 1 hour, Ongoing Response: 1 hour or as agreed", without having to leave the page.

It may already do this (apologies if it does), but as mentioned, I tested with a self support account.

This is good feedback, thanks!

Hello David

I'm testing the beta via IE9 (9.0.35), not by choice I hasten to add.
Below are my initial findings. I accept some results maybe as expected. I can provide screen shots if required. :-

  • Search for an existing support case returns duplicate lines.
  • The "Possible Solutions" need better separation. (The horizontal version I'm referring to, vertical is okay)
  • There is no facility to create an attachment in the initial "Create Support Case" entry , but upon submitting the case it warns you "..continuing without attaching.."
  • "Chat with Support" returns "Invalid SessionID"
  • Adding a second "Private Note" to a support case results in the "Update" button becoming ghosted and therefore you cannot submit it.
  • A newly created support case fails to appear in the list of support cases in the beta version , but appear in the "live" version.
  • The screen after the initial "Create Support Case" has a facility to attach documents but no button to initiate then upload.

Cheers

Thanks for the feedback, Rich.

I actually sent in a support case entitled "Test case ..." on April 8. And received a response today from a real support person. :)

"I noticed you have "Test Case" in the description of this support request. Were you having any issues that RH support can assist with?"
