General issue - told my case closed, but engineering still working on it?

[Nigey-LTA]

Really confusing support message today which doesn't give me confidence in Indesign's Publish Online product.

Yes, I've been told that I'm a fool to think I can build a business of the back of Publish Online, and also that I should be using Ajar In5, but Publish Online when working properly is fantastic for my business.  However, one of my issues recently has been a change to the Publish Online system that means document opening speed is much slower.  Originally (several months ago), it was blazingly fast, but now it really does just take it's time, pity because the speed was one of the things that convinced me Publish Online was a viable service (even if Adobe turned round and said at some point they'd charge for hosting later on, that'd be understandable).

So, having reported several issues, one of which is slow document load speed, I get the following from Adobe support:

Firstly an email saying my case is closed.

Then in support chat:

Me "I don't understand that - how can the case be closed if your engineering team hasn't solved the issue?"

Sarthi in reply:

"Sure. I want to inform you that the case is closed however the issue is reported to our team and they are working on it. There is no such estimate time to fix this issue however the team will update on a link once there will be and update from an engineering team."

I really don't know whether I'm being fobbed off, or if the issue is REALLY still being worked upon.

I think this will be better off in the Creative Cloud Services forum.

I think what the email means is that they've decided this is a bug and may take a while to fix, so there's no point leaving the case open. However, I am not an Adobe employee and I do not know their policies on this.

@LinSims is correct.  the agent confirmed adobe's engineering team is aware of the issue, but there is no estimated time of repair.

that still leaves you hanging indefinitely, so you should look for a work-around.

Again contacted adobe about slow load speed issue of Publish Online docs, now about 3 months since first reported this issue, at same time as loss of ability to save to homescreen in Safari. Just really seems to be no interest at Adobe to solve these problems. It's weird really, because no sooner do I re-report than I get email from support to say case closed, although support then tell me engineers are aware of issue????
