What's Covered Under Support vs Professional Services

Last updated: February 24, 2026

Customer Support

The following are included under your support agreement and handled by our Support Engineering team:

  • Product and official Upbound provider bugs — unexpected behaviour, functionality not working as documented, reproducible issues

  • Incidents — production outages or degraded functionality (P0/P1)

  • Configuration troubleshooting — reviewing logs, YAML, and configurations to identify root cause

  • CVE remediation for official Upbound providers — see CVE Remediation: Official vs Community Providers

  • Documentation-referenced guidance — questions answerable via existing docs or knowledge base

Note on core Crossplane issues: Bugs and enhancements in core Crossplane are governed by the open-source project. Our support team can assist with fact-finding, root cause analysis, and workarounds, but implementation velocity is driven by the open-source community.
