      It's truly mind blowing how many ticketing systems are out there in the wild.

      It's true, and how many are SO BAD.

      I'm no rockstar developer, but I'd be willing to help build one.

        For us, FreshService came out on top as it's the only one that didn't trip any deal breakers.

        We are testing it, but so far, finding it very slow and cumbersome. Doesn't even open sometimes. Better than what we are using, yes, but good, no.

          Anyone tried this? Looking at the screen shots and it looks useless. LOL I can't tell where you ever see ticket lists or details. They show a lot of things that don't matter, but never show actually using the system.

            Seems like the only way to be completely satisfied with a ticket system is if you build your own.

              Eh, I haven't had any issues with Zendesk at all.
              Other than that one time the internet had a giant DDos attack that took down AWS.
              When was that....2017?

              Otherwise, I have 0 complaints with it.

                FreshService is what we are using currently.

                  Scott said that's what they're trialing now, I guess so far they don't like it.

                    I've only used it from an end user point of view. But I know the help desk team and the other users who are submitted tickets is liking it a lot.

                      Not much anyway. BUt better than most anything we've seen so far.

                        Tons of FOSS ones, but of there's a feature you want, it things the list a lot. Just wanting the concept of clients being under an organization and accepting tickets via email drops a ton of FOSS ticketing systems.

                          Let their support team know. They’ve always been pretty responsive.

                            So far, can't get back in after our initial test. The "auto login" on Firefox is working. But the login from Chrome just spins forever, even on different computers.

                              We’re using SAML so I haven’t expected that. I’d hazard a guess that there’s a browser extension in the way.

                                    Yeah, I thought that might be the case, I just get issues on some sites with my aggressive cookie/ad blocking. Some minor adjustments are required for some sites to work.

                                        Let their support team know. They’ve always been pretty responsive.

                                        So far, can't get back in after our initial test. The "auto login" on Firefox is working. But the login from Chrome just spins forever, even on different computers.

                                        We’re using SAML so I haven’t expected that. I’d hazard a guess that there’s a browser extension in the way.

                                        Unlikely, use like none.

                                        Yeah, I thought that might be the case, I just get issues on some sites with my aggressive cookie/ad blocking. Some minor adjustments are required for some sites to work.

                                        Yeah, nothing like that.

                                          For us, FreshService came out on top as it's the only one that didn't trip any deal breakers.

                                          We are testing it, but so far, finding it very slow and cumbersome. Doesn't even open sometimes. Better than what we are using, yes, but good, no.

                                          That sucks, we haven’t had that experience.

                                          The login PAGE doesn't even load.

                                          Well that blows chunks

                                          Finally got it to load on Chrome on Fedora. But on the CHromebook, still spinning for forever.

                                            hHave you checked ServiceNow?

                                            That's what we use and it's 100% customizable in almost every way and easily integration with any automation.

                                            The bitch of it I assume is the setup to get it just the way you want it. But after that, perfection. Not sure of the costs at all though.
