There is a very active community for occasional issues/questions. Depending on the budget, there is an agency that maintains Drupal core, i.e., Acquia Cloud. This has a similar model that Red Hat uses, which is open-source software with consulting support.

Drupal Lead Developer at a marketing services firm with 201-500 employees

Since it's an open-source solution, I'd say that you have to get involved and be able to ask the right person.

Despite being open source, Drupal has a large and active community. Support, though voluntary, is rarely hard to find.

Senior Drupal developer at a non-profit with 51-200 employees

As mentioned before, the real strength of Drupal is the vast community who the product really relies on.

You will have to learn most things yourself, but if you have any questions, most of the community members are willing to help you with your problems.

The Drupal community gives excellent support to the Drupal core. Usually a reported bug does not last more than a week before it is attended to.

Expert Drupal, SEO at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees

It entirely depends on what modules you are using for building your website. Some are well-maintained, but a few are less well-maintained. But there are issue queues for each module where you can find solutions and often patches.

You may also find a lot of Drupal developers in IRC channels at any hour of the day, willing to help for free in a lot of cases.

Some companies, like Acquia, offer full-time support, provided by experienced site builders and developers.

There is no support other than the user community, which tends to be far better than most paid support.

Developer at Appnovation Technologies

Drupal version 8 is an open source solution, so the support is focused on the Drupal community itself.

In most cases, help is present in the form of forums, discussion groups, chats, etc. However, when entering enterprise grade, it is recommended to obtain support from a Drupal specialized company.

There are several available in the market. Some include people who are involved in maintaining the core of Drupal.

Senior Drupal Developer at a tech services company with 51-200 employees

Drupal has pretty good documentation for reference. You can always find support from the Drupal community via drupal.org, drupal.stackexchange.com, or on Drupal IRC channels, if you're into that kind of thing.

The technical support is entirely community-based, i.e., via Stack Overflow or Drupal.org. It could be better.

Senior Manager of IT with 1,001-5,000 employees
Customer Service: Excellent. There are always people in the community online and willing to have discussions. Each individual “module” (i.e., extension) has an issue queue where questions and issues can be brought up, discussed, and resolved. And there are consultancies available for contracted support.Technical Support: Excellent. The technical level of the community is high, as is that of consultancies. View full review »

Drupal Web Developer at a tech services company with 11-50 employees

Drupal is open source software. It is supported by the huge community and the Drupal association. Out of my personal experience on their website (drupal.org), both the community and the association are extremely willing to provide help and improve the main product and their modules in total.

Owner at a tech services company with 51-200 employees

We haven't used this solution's technical support yet. I do, however, think that it is good. Whenever I need technical support from Drupal due to a bug issue or some other problem, I will always ask the community first before bothering the Drupal team. I understand that Acquia has a service level agreement to contact the supporter when we have a website in the mission-critical context. But I have never used it, until now.

If you purchase Drupal-specific hosting vendors like Acquia/Pantheon/Platform.sh, then you get Premium Support or else you need to go for IRC, Drupal Slack or forums.
