Helpdesks you use in work
Hi folks, We've been looking at various Helpdesk solutions , with varying degrees of accessibility. Up until (if I'm honest), yesterday we've not had any even rough requirements. I was wondering what you are currently using in your work places to log Helpdesk and Service requests? I've looked at Zendesk, (very flash orientated), Sysaid (flash), Freshdesk (HTML but limited functionality, not so much an IT helpdesk as a Servicedesk), Oxygen, and a few others. Things we'd like the Help/Service Deskt o have are as follows, 1. Integration with Active Directory. If it links directly without having to import/export this would be brilliant. 2. Users can change their Active Directory passwords. 3. Various reporting functions for Managers. 4. SLA integration 5. Dispatcher rules, (though this isnt' critical) 6. Knowledge base both for users and technicians. 7. Canned responses 8. Ability to enforce users submit tickets via the web portal, instead of email 9. Customisable categories of requests, that can expand into sub-categories. EG. Software links to Microsoft, links to Office, links to outlook. 10. Re-branding to fit with company design. 11. Ideally can be tested in the cloud but hosted in-house. If not ideally UK based data centres. We're really up against time and I'll owe you all a pint if you can give me some pointers of what you're using and if it meets any or all of the above requirements. Thanks, Barry.
