Tracking Support Requests & Bug Reports
🔧 Tracking Support Requests & Bug Reports
After go-live, the volume and severity of support requests and bug reports reflect your software’s reliability and usability. Monitoring these metrics protects user confidence and reduces long-term costs.
What to Track
- Ticket Volume: Number of helpdesk tickets and reported issues per week.
- Severity Mix: % critical vs. minor defects; defect recurrence rate.
- Response & Resolution: Mean time to acknowledge (MTTA) and resolve (MTTR).
- Defect Density: Bugs per release or per 1,000 lines of code (trend over time).
Why It Matters
A low, declining volume of issues signals strong development practices and effective training. Spikes indicate where to improve documentation, UX, or specific workflows—so you can act before productivity drops.
