While there exist a variety of help desk ticket systems, let’s discuss some of the limitations of the conventional platforms and how we help overcome them using the Sharepoint platform:

  1. Tracking Updates
    It is challenging to keep up with updates and progress of a ticket request. To overcome this issue, our team makes deep customization in the SharePoint ticketing solution with Office 365. It allows generating automated notifications for ticket creation, management, and replies. Users can formulate automatic responses to basic customer requests.
  2. Synchronization across Departments
    Our robust ticketing solution assists in synchronizing the functionality across departments, including HR, IT support Administration, and more in an efficient manner. A shared interface with integrated workflow reduces turnaround time and costs.
  3. Reporting
    To get valuable insights into business operations and market trends is the core of any business success. Microsoft Forms provide necessary reporting capabilities. However, they cannot generate real-time reporting with all the valuable data. Our team integrates SharePoint ticketing system with a top-quality analytics tool like Power BI. It provides a cost-effective solution to establish a data-driven culture in any organization.
