Features

Everything your support teams need to close tickets faster

From the moment a request is raised to the final rating, every step is tracked, timed and visible.

Departments & categories

Set up IT, HR, Admin or any team, each with its own categories and sub-categories, like IT › Hardware › Mouse replacement.

Smart assignment

Tickets land in the department queue, or go straight to an agent by round-robin, least-busy or a category's default owner.

SLA timers

Response and resolution targets per priority and department. The clock pauses while you wait on the requester.

Multi-level escalation

Escalate manually, or let the system do it when an SLA is breached, moving up a three-level matrix you define.

Instant notifications

In-app alerts and email for new tickets, replies, assignments, due-soon warnings and escalations.

Team collaboration

Internal notes the requester never sees, watchers, canned replies and attachments, all on one ticket timeline.

Customer portal

External customers sign up, raise tickets with public departments and track progress without seeing internal work.

Reports & CSAT

SLA compliance, response and resolution times, agent performance and 1–5 star ratings, with CSV export.

Product tour

From "it's not working" to "resolved" in one place

A conversation, a clock and a clear owner on every ticket.

Ticket conversation

The whole story on one page

Requesters and agents talk on the ticket. Agents add private notes for each other, insert canned replies and put the ticket on hold when they need more information.

  • Public replies and internal notes, clearly separated
  • Attachments, watchers and a full activity log
  • Requester replies reopen on-hold tickets automatically

SLA & escalation

Nothing sits forgotten in a queue

Every ticket gets response and resolution deadlines. Agents get a warning before a deadline, and if it is missed the ticket climbs your escalation matrix automatically.

  • Targets per priority, with department overrides
  • Three escalation levels per department
  • Requesters can escalate too, with a cool-down

Customer portal

Support for customers, not just colleagues

External customers get their own sign-up and portal. They raise tickets with the departments you make public and follow every update, while internal notes stay internal.

  • Self sign-up with email verification (can be turned off)
  • Only public departments are offered to customers
  • Close and rate tickets when the job is done

How it works

Four steps from request to resolution

Simple for the person asking for help, structured for the team giving it.

1. Raise

Pick the department, category and sub-category, describe the issue and attach a screenshot.

2. Route

The ticket goes to the right queue or agent, and the SLA clock starts. Everyone involved is notified.

3. Resolve

Agents reply, add notes, change status and transfer if needed. Escalation kicks in if time runs out.

4. Close & rate

The requester confirms the fix and rates the service. Resolved tickets close automatically after a few days.

Built for every role

The right view for everyone involved

Role-based access means each person sees exactly the tickets and tools they need.

Super Admin & Admin

Set up departments, categories, SLAs, escalation and users, and see every ticket and report.

Department heads

Own their department's queue: assign, reassign and transfer tickets, and receive escalations.

Agents

Work their queue and assigned tickets with replies, notes, canned responses and status changes.

Employees

Raise requests to any department, follow progress, reply, escalate and rate the help they got.

Customers

A separate portal to raise and track tickets with the departments you open to the public.

Watchers

Loop in a manager or colleague on any ticket so they get updates without being the owner.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which departments can use it?

Any team that handles requests: IT, HR, Admin and facilities, Accounts, customer support and more. Each department gets its own categories, members, assignment rules and escalation matrix.

Can external customers raise tickets?

Yes. Customers sign up on the portal, verify their email and raise tickets with the departments you mark as public. Self sign-up can be switched off if you prefer to invite customers yourself.

How does escalation work?

Each department has up to three escalation levels, each mapped to a person. A ticket moves up a level when someone clicks Escalate with a reason, or automatically when a response or resolution SLA is breached. The new owner, the department head and the previous assignee are all notified.

What happens to the SLA while we wait for the requester?

Putting a ticket on hold pauses the clock. When the requester replies, the ticket goes back to in progress and the deadlines move forward by the time it spent waiting.

Will the requester see our internal discussion?

No. Internal notes are visible only to staff working on the ticket. Requesters see public replies, status changes and attachments shared with them.

How are people notified?

Through the notification bell inside the helpdesk and by email, for new tickets, replies, assignments, status changes, due-soon warnings and escalations.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. The helpdesk and the customer portal are fully responsive, so tickets can be raised and answered from a phone, tablet or desktop.
