FRT (First Response Time)

Time to the first reply.

Definition

First response time (FRT) measures the time until the first reply to a request.

In practice

For customers the first response often matters most — even if resolution takes longer. An automatic acknowledgement usually does not count as a reply.

At Debesis

Debesis measures FRT per queue and includes it in SLAs.
