We've analysed dozens of Reddit threads on r/sysadmin and here's what we've found: the people who run help desks for a living are not impressed. They aren't all hostile, though. Somewhere between "nobody wants this" and a vendor promising 90% deflection, a handful of admins have quietly got AI doing useful work. It just isn't the work the demos show.

Every helpdesk vendor now sells "AI". What they actually ship differs a lot. Some offer a chatbot that answers customers before a ticket exists. Some offer a copilot that drafts replies for agents. Others hand you a platform and a consultant's invoice. The pricing models differ too: per seat, per conversation, per "resolution", or a pool of credits that nobody on the buying committee fully understands.

Our new Microsoft Teams app just passed Microsoft's certification and is live in the Teams Store: Jitbit Helpdesk Bot. Search "Jitbit" in the Teams app store and it's right there - no custom app uploads, no admin-center gymnastics.
