| 181 | +## Before you ask |
| 182 | + |
| 183 | +Most reports resolve faster when they arrive complete. Work through this list first. |
| 184 | + |
| 185 | +<ol className={styles.steps}> |
| 186 | + <li> |
| 187 | + |
| 188 | +**Search the docs** — start with{" "} |
| 189 | +<a href="../troubleshooting/">Troubleshooting & FAQ</a>, then{" "} |
| 190 | +<a href="../getting-started/">Getting started</a> and{" "} |
| 191 | +<a href="../getting-started/configuration">Configuration</a>. |
| 192 | + |
| 193 | + </li> |
| 194 | + <li> |
| 195 | + |
| 196 | +**Search existing issues** — your problem may already be |
| 197 | +reported, or already fixed on <code>develop</code>. |
| 198 | + |
| 199 | + </li> |
| 200 | + <li> |
| 201 | + |
| 202 | +**Check the API is reachable** — visit{" "} |
| 203 | +<code>[https://api.ever.team/api/health](https://api.ever.team/api/health)</code>, or your own API host, and |
| 204 | +confirm it responds. |
| 205 | + |
| 206 | + </li> |
| 207 | + <li> |
| 208 | + |
| 209 | +**Reproduce on a clean state** — clear browser cookies and local |
| 210 | +storage, or rebuild without the <code>.next</code> cache. |
| 211 | + |
| 212 | + </li> |
| 213 | + <li> |
| 214 | + |
| 215 | +**Check the console and server logs** — the actual error message |
| 216 | +is usually already there. |

| 218 | + </li> |
| 219 | +</ol> |
| 220 | + |
| 221 | +## What to include in a report |
| 222 | + |
| 223 | +A good report answers _what did you do, what did you expect, what happened instead_ — and gives us enough to reproduce it. |

| 309 | +## Community support |
| 310 | + |
| 311 | +Community support is free and covers the open-source Community Edition. It is best-effort — maintainers and other users answer as they are available, and there is no response-time commitment. Every channel, and what each one is best for, is listed on [Contact Us](/community/contact-us). |
| 312 | + |
| 313 | +:::tip[Ask once, in one place] |
| 314 | + |
| 315 | +Post your question in a single channel and link to it if you need to follow up elsewhere. Cross-posting the same question splits the answers. |
| 316 | + |
| 317 | +::: |
| 318 | + |
| 319 | +## Support by plan |
| 320 | + |
| 321 | +<p className={styles.lead}> |
| 322 | + |
| 323 | +Cloud plans are tiered by number of active users, and one purchase covers both |
| 324 | +the Platform and the Kit. See [ever.team/pricing](https://ever.team/pricing) for |
| 325 | +the current tiers, limits, and prices. |
| 326 | + |
| 327 | +</p> |
| 328 | + |
| 329 | +For cloud accounts, Ever Teams lists email and live chat as the support contact methods — see the FAQ on the [pricing page](https://ever.team/pricing) for the current commitment. Subscription details, credits, and license upgrades are managed from your account dashboard, and an upgrade credits the cost of your current license toward the new one. |
| 330 | + |
| 331 | +## Commercial & enterprise support |
| 332 | + |
| 333 | +Beyond the community channels, Ever Co. offers paid engagements: |
| 334 | + |
| 335 | +- **Priority and dedicated support** for production deployments |
| 336 | +- **Custom development** and feature sponsorship |
| 337 | +- **Deployment and migration assistance** for self-hosted installations |
| 338 | +- **Commercial licensing** — Enterprise and Small Business licenses for use outside AGPL-3.0 terms |
| 339 | + |
| 340 | +See [Contact Us](/community/contact-us) for how to reach the team, and [ever.team/partners](https://ever.team/partners) for implementation partners. |
| 341 | + |
| 342 | +## Self-hosted support |
| 343 | + |
| 344 | +Self-hosting means you own the deployment, so most issues are environment-specific. Ever Teams requires a reachable **Ever Gauzy** API — either the hosted one at `api.ever.team` or your own instance. |
| 345 | + |
| 346 | +Before opening an issue, confirm: |
| 347 | + |
| 348 | +- The API URL is set in both `GAUZY_API_SERVER_URL` and `NEXT_PUBLIC_GAUZY_API_SERVER_URL` |
| 349 | +- The API responds at `/api/health` |
| 350 | +- CORS allows your web app's domain |
| 351 | +- Ports 3030, 3000, 5432 and 6379 are free, and Docker has at least 4 GB of RAM allocated |
| 352 | + |
| 353 | +See [Deployment](/deployment/) and [Troubleshooting](/troubleshooting/) for the details, and [Configuration](/getting-started/configuration) for the full environment variable reference. |
| 354 | + |
| 355 | +## Service status |
| 356 | + |
| 357 | +The [ever.team](https://ever.team) footer publishes a live system status indicator for the hosted services. If the cloud app or API is unreachable, check there before filing a report. For self-hosted deployments, check your own API health endpoint and container logs first. |
| 358 | + |
| 359 | +## Security issues |
| 360 | + |
| 361 | +Vulnerabilities go through private disclosure, never a public issue. Include affected versions, reproduction steps, and impact — the [Security](/security/) guide covers the full process, and [Contact Us](/community/contact-us) has the address. |
| 362 | + |
| 363 | +## Helping others |
| 364 | + |
| 365 | +Support goes both ways. Answering someone else's question, or fixing the page that would have answered it, is the fastest way to improve it — every page here has an **Edit this page** link at the foot. |
| 366 | + |
| 367 | +See [Community](/community/) for the other ways to contribute. |
