> Maybe at that level there's a secret site that straight up says product X has limitations Y and Z
I promise you that there is not. :)
Usually it went the other way. We (Netflix) would say "hey we think we found a limit in product X" and they would come back later and say, "huh you're right no one has ever seen that before". Then we'd get on the phone with the engineer who wrote it and we'd work through the bug together.
So in a sense, yes, we had amazing support, but only because we were their beta testers. It was a good relationship though, because it meant when we had problems we got a lot of help.
They were always willing to put the resources in to make sure we were insanely happy.
But talking to other customers, that part of the equation seems to be there no matter who you are.
