What is L1 support?
Definition: L1 support is the first level of customer support in a multi-tiered support model. They focus on resolving basic customer inquiries, issues, or problems.
L1 support is provided by frontline support agents or customer service, who play a crucial role in the customer support process, as it serves as the first point of contact between the customers and the support team.
Efficient L1 support can lead to faster resolution times, increased customer satisfaction, and reduced workload on higher support tiers by resolving common issues and filtering out more complex problems for escalation.
L1 support is also known as Level 1 support or Tier 1 support.
Responsibilities of L1 support
- Responding to customer inquiries.
- Identifying customer issues and diagnosing the root of the problem.
