Reporting a Platform Issue

If you are having an issue please email support@milkcrate.tech if the issue is time-sensitive please call 484-441-3336. We recommend following the steps below before contacting our team about issues.

Check the Feature’s Documentation

See first if it performs that way on purpose.

Clear Cache & Refresh

If this is a problem in the Admin, your computer stores cache associated with older versions of the platform clearing you cache may help with slowness, trouble loading, etc.

Refreshing the Admin may solve a handful of issues you are experiencing with the Admin, including slowness, trouble loading, etc. These issues may occur if the platform is being updated, or has been updated, on the backend.

What are bugs & why do they happen?

Bugs are a natural component of software. A software bug is an error, flaw or fault in a computer program or system that causes it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result, or to behave in unintended ways. Please refer to the help article section to review the intended functionality of all of our features.

We are actively working to perfect the process of managing bugs that are found in our platform. This means our team has now mandated that all feature improvements and new features will undergo rigorous testing. We recognize the importance of balancing bugs, features and fulfilling platform enhancements.

How do we prioritize bugs?

Non Critical Bug: This is something that was designed in the platform but is not working as it should but doesn’t impact. Management of noncritical bugs are managed during sprint planning.

Critical Bug: Did the app crash? Is a core feature unusable? Does it seem like over 25% of active users are facing this issue? If so, this would be a critical bug and we will typically try to solve the issue and send a new version of all customer apps to Apple App Store and Google Play Store for review as soon as possible.

Platform Enhancement Bugs: Please refer to your Additional Services agreement to review the scope assigned to your additional services. If you believe we have not met our obligations we are happy to review. Once we have agreed that it was in scope we will immediately assign critical bugs to the current sprint and minor alterations to the following sprint.
