In the world of help desk software, we always want to stay on top of what’s happening in customer service.
Are you still using a shared inbox for the help desk or support function?
It’s common for businesses to implement a shared inbox during the early stages, especially while their operation is still small. Shared inboxes can work while you’re still small enough to manage volumes, but often start to fall apart as you get busier.
The help desk is a hub for many activities.
Primarily, it’s about providing excellent service or support to customers and users. However there’s another worthy cause your help desk is in a prime position to assist with: gathering insights that can help make improvements within the company.

One of the key challenges that most help desks have to juggle is managing time.
You’ve got constraints in terms of budget and number of assigned technicians or agents you can have, and you need to balance that with the workload coming through your help desk.
This makes streamlining and finding the most efficient operating strategies extra important. Sometimes you’re being asked to do “more with less,” while your users have high expectations of your service delivery too.
Here are a few ideas on how help desks can streamline:
