We’ve just rolled out the latest update to Helpdesk Pilot, Version 4.4.5.

Aside from overall enhancements and better workflows, V 4.4.5 incorporates a number of new features, that are bound to add even more efficiency to your help desk operations, such as:

2 way email parsing
Till recently, help desk staff would need to access their relevant Admin/Staff Panels to view and respond to tickets.

With the latest release, your help desk staff can now respond to tickets directly by replying to the staff notifications they receive. Considering the increasing popularity of having emails pushed to a mobile device, such as Blackberry or iPhone, your help desk staff will now be able to reply to tickets while on the move.

You have to admit, that’s a pretty cool feature to have, right?

Multiple member participation
Often, a customer may CC multiple recipients in an email that he/she sends in to your help desk. A ticket would be created, identifying the Mail Sender as the Customer and all communication between your help desk and that particular customer would be appended to the ticket in Helpdesk Pilot.

However, responses sent in from any of the CC’d recipients would create new tickets.

Version 4.4.5 takes care of that by allowing multiple participants on a single ticket. As long as the ticket ID is present in the email’s subject field, Helpdesk Pilot will append responses from any of the recipients (in the CC/To field of the customer’s initial email) to the ticket.

If you’re making a purchase now, you’ll be shipped the latest release.

Existing customers can download the upgrade by accessing their accounts on the Priority Support Portal. (Please check your inbox for an email from The Helpdesk Pilot Team with details on how to upgrade your current installation)

In terms of improvements over the existing Version 4.4.0, we’re introducing a number of core help desk features and overall enhancements that we’re sure you’re going to love and appreciate.

If you’re planning on making a purchase now, rest assured that with your free 6 month Priority Support & Upgrades contract (available with every purchase of a Helpdesk Pilot license), you are eligible for a free upgrade to Version 4.4.5 as soon as it’s released.

To all our current and valued Helpdesk Pilot users, please ensure that your Priority Support & Upgrades contract is valid.

A lot of late nights and weekends at work have gone into ensuring that Helpdesk Pilot remains a simple, intuitive yet feature rich help desk solution. Version 4.4.5 delivers just that and we look forward to unveiling it to you.

However, there is a large percentage of customers who prefer to phone in their requests and be assisted by a customer support agent; to these customers, the element of human presence provides them with a certain level of comfort that their request has indeed been acknowledged.

Helpdesk Pilot takes note of this important requirement and provides your support agents with the option of submitting a ticket on behalf of the end user/customer.

Whilst logged in to the Admin Panel, your Customer support agent needs to merely click on the “New Ticket” link, located at the top right hand corner of the panel (shown below), to bring up the ticket submission form.

With the customer on the phone, your support agent can then fill in the ticket submission form while prompting the customer for the information required in the individual fields. The ticket then enters your Helpdesk Pilot ticket queue, awaiting response from the concerned support agent.

In a nutshell, your help desk is your means of ensuring that every incoming request is efficiently managed and responded to; be it IT related issues from your internal employees, sales enquiries from prospective customers or product/service support queries from existing clients.

Everyone has something to say, but how do you ensure that every voice is heard? Communicating these requests has progressively advanced in line with available technology; from making actual visits in person to contacting a call centre to harnessing the power of the Internet and relying on email & the Web. That just widens the playing field for the amount of incoming communication that you’re probably going to receive.

Whilst mail handling software provide you with the ability to perform certain management tasks, such as setting up rules to organize incoming mails automatically according to subject type, etc, they just aren’t cut out for core help desk management requirements, which typically include:

• Assigning incoming requests to specific staff members
• Auditing a request right from the time of its creation to the point of resolution; being able to track the manner in which a request was handled
• Treating each request as a uniquely identifiable record, commonly referred to as a ticket
• Notifying multiple staff members on a single request in a method more efficient than CC’ing everyone in on an email

These are just a few of the many critical requirements that reinforce the ever-so-important need to have in place a comprehensive help desk management software solution.

A dedicated help desk management solution provides you with a host of integral tools that allow you to do much more than just efficiently act upon incoming requests. Requirements in terms of how requests are handled differ from business to business, so it is important to first understand how you wish to manage your help desk before opting to deploy a solution merely because it claims to address all help desk requirements.

How strong is your help desk management capability?

We’d be happy to discuss your requirements and recommend how best you could implement an efficient help desk solution within your business. Feel free to contact us at sales@helpdeskpilot.com
