What we do
At Kentik, we place a premium on customer satisfaction and pride ourselves on our ability to provide top notch support for our products and platform. As we continue to grow our product offerings at a rapid pace, we are also growing our dedicated Product Support team that is focused on the full lifecycle of customer support from within engineering (Tier 2 support).
