We get about 200 support tickets monthly. Used to see them as problems to resolve. Now see them as data to analyze. Started categorizing every ticket: Bug report (actual defect): 15% Confusion (UI/UX problem): 35% Feature gap (missing capability): 25% User error (training issue): 20% Other: 5% The 35% confusion category was gold. These weren't bugs. The product worked. Customers just couldn't figure out how to use it. Each confusion ticket points to a UX failure. Aggregated, they create a prioritized list of what to fix. We reduced confusion tickets by 60% over 6 months by addressing the top 10 patterns. Support load dropped. Activation improved. NPS increased. Your support queue is a prioritized roadmap. Most teams ignore it.
