Especially with SaaS products, these deploys have an immediate customer-facing impact, which comes back to your success and support teams in the form of questions or concerns. Preparing yourselves and your users for these disruptions is the difference between a happy customer and looking like you don’t know what your product does. Jake Bartlett, Customer Success Manager at Atlassian Statuspage, knows these pains all too well and has been a part of developing the right practices to ensure everyone is prepared.
