Joel Dalley Q2

All the troubleshooting and expert review and advice that happens in the Slack channel is awesome. And the team is so responsive - managing our clusters, upgrades, CVEs, 24/7 pager - at this price point it's a no brainer for us to partner with Fairwinds to manage our Kubernetes clusters.
