Is great customer support as important as a great product?
Viola Marku is the Customer Success Manager at WunderGraph, where she partners closely with engineering-led teams to drive successful adoption of federated architecture across complex organisations. With nearly a decade of experience in technical startups, she brings both empathy and precision to every customer engagement, translating abstract challenges into clear, actionable paths forward.
Viola's cross-functional work with engineering and sales has helped reduce time to value while elevating the role of customer success as a strategic growth function. She's focused on creating the conditions for customer ownership, embedding success into how modern platform teams actually work.
Hosted by WunderGraph CEO Jens Neuse and COO Stefan Avram, they'll talk support excellence, feedback loops, and share advice they’ve learned along the way.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
Support is a Product
* Great support isn't an afterthought. Viola and Stefan make the case that support is part of the product, and why investing early pays off.
From Chaos to EOC and beyond
* We trace the evolution of WunderGraph’s support process, from Stefan juggling sales and support alone, to the launch of the Engineer-On-Call (EOC) system in 2025, to how Viola reshaped workflows when she joined the team earlier this year.
Turning Feedback into Features
* How WunderGraph collects, prioritizes, and acts on customer feedback, and why this feedback loop is one of their biggest product advantages.
Failures, Fixes, and Lessons
* We talk about real mistakes: the support tickets that went sideways, the growing pains, and how even the worst moments became learning opportunities.
Scaling a Support Culture
* With a growing user base, how will WunderGraph maintain its customer-first values?
From AI tooling to culture building, we explore how the team is preparing for what’s next.
Whether you’re scaling a devtool, leading a support team, or just curious how real customer obsession shapes product growth, this episode is for you.
Jump into the comments or live chat! We want to hear:
* Is great customer support as important than the product itself?
* What’s the biggest support fail you’ve learned from?
* Can great support be your moat?
