I got a telephone call from Crystal Tech last night. They were asking 
if I was satisfied with their services and if I had any ideas what 
they could do to improve. So apparently they are at least doing some 
damage control.

My thoughts to them were that there needs to be more feedback from 
their support team. I've had problems in the past that took 3 days to 
fix also. I've then found out that there was (supposedly) a team 
working on the issue for those 3 days. Although follow up requests 
about the problem were seemingly falling on deaf ears and being 
ignored. Status reports (not just automatic emails) such as "Hey Bud, 
this is where we're at with your issue" are needed on problems that 
are taking more than an hour or 2 to fix.

I also explained that for those of us reselling, myself I have 50+ 
customers running my cf_ezcart on their servers, half of which are on 
MX, that when there is a problem that arises in a new release of MX 
or whatnot that affects my cart, I don't just have the stress of 
trying to fix my own site, I may have 30 sites being affected. Plus 
maybe another 50-100 of folks hosting their own site at CT running my 
cart. So I know I'll also be getting support calls from them. That is 
VERY stressful when you cannot truthfully answer to your OWN 
customers what the problem is and what is being done to rectify it.

So to summarize I told them that even though I'm very happy overall 
with their service, there have been 2 or 3 instances over the past 
couple years that could have been communicated MUCH better. Hopefully 
they'll get some good feedback.
