"In the past year, the total number of Twilio customers has more than doubled and companies of all sizes are relying on Twilio for critical customer communications," said Twilio CEO Jeff Lawson. "As many of our customers seek a closer relationship with Twilio's support engineers to improve planning and issue resolution, we want to offer support plans that meet every need and budget."

The new Twilio Personalized Support plan includes:

• 24x7 Response: Access to Twilio support staff via both email and phone, 24-hours a day, for business-critical issues with a one-hour service level agreement.
• Named Support Engineer: Access to a designated contact in Twilio support who understands details such as the programming language and environment being used in order to expedite issues resolution.
• Support Manager Escalation Line: Direct access to customer support managers for escalation of urgent issues.
• Quarterly Checkups: Quarterly meetings with Twilio support to review use cases, past issues and to assist with capacity planning and optimization for Twilio deployments.

The cost for Twilio Personalized Support is $5000/month.

Additional Twilio Support plans include:

• Premium Support: The Premium Support Plan is designed for developers and businesses who may not want a dedicated support engineer, but who still want fast response times via email and phone 24x7. This plan guarantees customer support response in one hour or less for urgent issues. Premium Support is priced at $1,500/month.
• Bootstrap Support: The Bootstrap Support plan includes response times of two hours or less. This plan is great for businesses that want email support and need a more predictable response time than what is available in the Free Support plan. The cost for Bootstrap support is $500/month.
