Support Center (Support Ticket System (STS) ) Portal, Why?

 

In order to streamline support requests and better serve you, we decided to utilize a support ticket system. Every support request is assigned a unique ticket number which you can use to track the progress and responses Online. For your reference, we provide complete archives and history of all your support requests; although, a valid email address is required to submit a ticket.

 

Reasons Why Ticket Tracking System is Better than Email

 

1) Everything is centralized in one place

When there are a lot of people working on requests, it keeps tracking of information far easier. Instead of remembering to CC someone on that email stream so that they know the history, bam. It’s right there in the ticket for that issue.

 

If you have a lot of requests or tasks to complete, and have to put something off for a few days to put out a fire or ten, it’s nice to be able to open a ticket and see all the relevant info right away instead of digging through emails.

 

2) Provides built in tracking and reporting metrics

It is easier to determine whether someone is working efficiently since you are tracking information. You can track things easier, for example, you can run a report on every ticket a teammate has worked on in the past month.

 

3) Helps prioritize workflow

It also allows you to more easily prioritize work-flow. At one job, we had 1-5 to number priorities, where 1 was ‘Holy [heck] whole network is down’ and 5 was “So-and-so needs us to come re-route cabling in their desk . You can apply a custom work flow to issue resolution.

 

4) Adds transparency

A ticket tracking system is better for determining which departments/teams/businesses are receiving the most support requests so you can allocate your support resources efficiently.

 

Even if you don’t expose it to your end-users, and just have them send emails into a support address a ticket system that will significantly increase accountability, provide a baseline, and ensure issues don’t fall through the cracks as easily.

 

5) Ensures continuity

It’s easier to deal with reorganizing issues if a team member leaves, since you can just look through all the ones still assigned to them, and reassign as necessary.

 

Simply put: if you need to delegate tasks to others and track those tasks closely, ticket tracking is superior to email. That’s why it’s perfect for people who start their own businesses. Ticket tracking systems are also a good fit for people who work in a position where they they manage others or handle support requests.
