Response vs. Resolution - What's the Difference?
Response Time refers to the maximum duration between a client reporting an issue and a technician actively acknowledging the ticket and commencing the investigation. It serves as a guarantee that the issue has been logged and is being triaged.
In contrast, Resolution Time is the maximum duration allowed to fully rectify the fault and restore normal service operations. While Response Time ensures you are not ignored, Resolution Time provides the commitment to a definitive fix. For example, a “30-minute response” means a technician is looking at the problem within half an hour, whereas a “2-hour resolution” ensures the problem is solved within that timeframe.
