Your ServiceDesk for Redmine
Are you comparing different helpdesk tools for Redmine or are you looking for alternatives to products from other providers? Save yourself tedious comparisons of the many functions with each other and get to know 5 advantages that you only have when using the ServiceDesk Plugin from AlphaNodes. Our product is Made in Germany and multilingual usable. The plugin is part of our hosting package for Redmine (on-premise or cloud offer). And can also be acquired by purchasing the Enterprise+ bundle.
#1 - Friendly support in DE / EN
Our years of project work have shown that many companies value qualified support. This means that even complex problems can be solved. And the support requests are handled and stored on a secure server within the EU (Germany).
#2 - Canned Responses for various kind of tickets
For a quick answer to recurring questions you need Canned Responses. Besides the possibility to manage answer templates for helpdesk tickets, you get the additional option to use such templates for regular redmine tickets and this even globally (across projects). Employees with the appropriate role permission can also work with those answer templates in regular projects if required.
#3 - Extensive automation
Typical standard rules for incoming helpdesk tickets are nothing special. That’s why we do without them. Instead, we have seamlessly integrated the ServiceDesk plugin into the Automation plugin. This way, you have numerous Automation actions (PDF-Download) in addition to the usual rules for incoming mails in order to handle customer support requests. Not only your helpdesk tickets, but also regular ticket processes, contact entries and more can be automated and optimized. We make sure that you are always a step ahead of the competition.
#4 - Project-specific block list for spam defense
If you open your Redmine to requests from outside you will never be able to eliminate SPAM emails completely, but you can still do something against unwanted advertising mails. Users with the appropriate authorization can manage the project-specific block list, mark incoming mails or contacts as SPAM and thereby block tickets with certain e-mail senders or unwanted subjects.
#5 - Central, customizable helpdesk dashboard
All AlphaNodes plugins for Redmine come with dashboard support. This allows a helpdesk manager to create an individual dashboard for himself and his support agents. As an entry page to the project, the ServiceDesk always provides you and your support agents with a central view of the current status of helpdesk requests and ensures greater efficiency through better transparency.
ServiceDesk as a helpdesk for small businesses using Redmine
The needs of small businesses are not much different from those of mid-sized companies. However, small businesses usually do not have the necessary number of employees to handle support as the big ones do. That’s why you need a helpdesk tool with more automation capabilities.
- Do you have SLAs (Service Level Agreements) for certain customers and want to better meet deadlines or escalate in a timely manner?
- Do you want to automatically tag, prioritize, assign to another agent, or move customer requests to another project?
- Do you have to consider data protection regulations or industry requirements and want to be sure that your helpdesk tool will help you?
The ServiceDesk plugin can currently support you better than other tools in the Redmine area through its integration with the Automation plugin. The use of issue rules, automatic resubmission of issues, or ticket repetitions simplifies your support job. And ensures that less is forgotten and requests are processed more efficiently.
