A bad review is usually a service case: a damaged delivery, a product that doesn't fit, a question nobody answered. If the review only sits in the Judge.me admin, often nobody on the support team sees it. In the inbox it's handled like any other ticket, with an owner and a status.
Automatic prioritisation makes sure critical reviews don't get lost. In busy weeks especially, many positive reviews come in for every few negative ones. Without sorting, the negative ones end up somewhere in between.
Every review creates exactly one ticket. If the customer edits their review later, for example because the problem was solved, or Judge.me adjusts it during moderation, the same ticket updates. The history stays in one place, and your team can see whether a reply made a difference.
Judge.me sends private replies by email, from its own Judge.me sender address. If the customer replies to that email, their reply therefore doesn't land in the ticket automatically. For longer conversations, for example about a refund, it's worth pointing the customer to your support channel in the private reply.
