💬What is a domain?

When signing up, you choose a domain where your instance will be accessible online. It is always a subdomain of fair-wizard.com, such as your-domain.fair-wizard.com. Your institution name or abbreviation is a good idea for the domain, but feel free to choose whatever suits you best. Here are some examples:

  • ACME Corporation → acme.fair-wizard.com
  • Quantum Nexus Research Institute → qnri.fair-wizard.com

You can use only lowercase alphanumeric characters and '-', but it can't start or end with '-'.

If you want to run your instance on your own domain (not as a subdomain of fair-wizard.com), check out our Enterprise Plan.

  • Analytics (analyze your plans, measure progress, etc.)
  • and much more!

💬Is there a list of upcoming features?

Yes, we maintain a changelog page where you can view our new features and fixed bugs.

💬Can I affect what will be developed?

Yes, we are open to any suggestions. Send us an email to info@fair-wizard.com and we will discuss it!

💬What is the timeline for the release process?

We release new versions monthly. Prior to deploying a new release to production, we first deploy it on a preview instance, which is provided alongside your production instance. This allows you to test new features, modify your knowledge model or document template as necessary, and get ready for the new version. For specific release dates, please refer to our changelog page.

Yes, we provide a preview instance for every production instance. This allows you to test new features, modify your knowledge model or document template as necessary, and get ready for the new version.

💬Will I receive an alert when a new version is deployed?

Yes, we will send you an email notification 3 days before and right after a new version is deployed to your production and preview instance.

💬How frequently is maintenance scheduled, and is there a guarantee for service availability?

Usually, there are no downtime or service interruptions during maintenance. However, in some cases, we may need to take the service offline for a short period of time. In such cases, we will notify you in advance. According to your plan, we guarantee 95% or 97% service availability.
