Onboarding and offboarding

Getting started
Organisational level: every customer is allocated an account manager during the sales cycle. The initial onboarding process ensures the smooth transition onto the software. The account manager collects standard data requirements as well as custom configurations from an identified Super User. Our team works with the customer Super User/s who is then introduced to the knowledge base during the initial engagement session, consisting of written articles/screenshots and videos, accessible at any time through the user interface.
User level: New customers are encouraged to include their team members in the initial training session. As new people join their team, the user receives a set of onboarding training emails alongside the Super User/s cascade training.

Scaling

Independence of resources
All of our technology is distributed to separate virtual machines to allow us to grant each machine its own dedicated resource. We use load-balancers to distribute application traffic across multiple web-servers. And we record application metrics to give us an understanding of under-performing areas of our applications, which we use to drive our development focus for future iterations.

Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
The ReferAll platform has been designed to ensure continuous availability for all customers. With that said there are times when the system will require downtime. When the need for downtime occurs, ReferAll will notify customers with sufficient lead time in order that their businesses understand what needs to be changed and when. Any planned downtime will be outside normal business hours of 8am to 6pm. By way of indication, ReferAll availability is approximately 99.9%, allowing for planned downtime.
Approach to resilience
ReferAll incorporate the following patterns to build resilient services for their clients: they favour automation for continuous integration & deployment of digital assets, load-balancers to distribute load between web servers, cloud-hosted services (where possible) of which are able to scale with customer demand, caching of hot queries to decrease load on the storage layer, and database mirroring to ensure continuous data availability.
