Nope, nobody said “create a ticket and do it by your own”. However, if we don’t know which very specific features or issues you’re missing, you’ll definitely write another e-mail exactly like this one three months from now. “Help me to help you,” as Tom Cruise once said. What do I and others need to do, specifically, to help you not need to write this e-mail again three months from now? We can’t do everything. But if we could do something, what would it be?
