TeamSupport was great decision for us

Rating: 9 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We currently use the TeamSupport product in two departments of our company. These are two completely separate installations because of the nature of the two functions in our company. The first one is an outward facing customer support portal to a technical/engineering audience. The other installation is an internal use where we manage documents coming into our technical documentation group for publication and revisions. All communication for the second installation is all in house.

Pros

  • TeamSupport is great at allowing the user to respond much in the way you can in a rich text e-mail tool. Many solutions we had looked at were strictly text based and are hard to follow. With TeamSupport we can have rich content in our responses including formatted data, tables, graphs, pictures and such.
  • TeamSupport is very easy to get going with their sandbox environment in that you can get started with a few simple clicks.

Cons

  • We would like to see a structure to the ticket numbering system. In a previous system we had a numbering system like this mmddyy-xxxxxx This was very easy to see when a ticket was created based on just it's number. Currently with TeamSupport they assign a random number to tickets that is not very informative without a created date field.
  • Reports are nice but lack some rollup capabilities that are needed. Any given report can only work against two data tables at max. This is a limitation that we had to create custom contact fields to get around. They store phone, address and base contact info in separate tables. This makes it impossible with a standard system to create a report of all tickets along with the ticket and contact information in one report. The previous system we were on, allowed you to tie as many related data tables together that was needed to create one high level report.
  • Need Ability to notify external users of ticket activity in regions. So what I mean is we have FAE's in the field that want to know what their customers are asking for their region. They don't want or need a TeamSupport account but want simple e-mails of activity. This has been a lost feature for us going to a new system. I have to create a manual report each week and forward to the people that want this kind of information.
  • Ticket Automation rules will only run against a ticket one time. I understand why they did this to prevent uncontrolled loops but it would be nice to be able to set a limit that was greater than one. This limitation often causes us to have to write multiple rules to handle certain ticket cases.

Likelihood to Recommend

We have been overall very happy with TeamSupport. We have also provided lots of feedback on things were we see need for improvement. The tool is constantly evolving and getting better so we hold hopes that some of the things we didn't like will be addressed some day. Overall the tool is extremely good for customer support whether it's for an internal or external customer base.

TeamSupport - Always looking to improve!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

TeamSupport is used in our organization. It helps when we have products that need to be repaired or returned to us. It's a great way to help our customers know the updates on their units and when they should be receiving them back.

Pros

  • I think the strengths TeamSupport has are all the features it has to offer. For example, it has groups and reports. These are very useful when working with customers.

Cons

  • I don't particularly like when I'm adding in content I can't see everything I've just added. The information is cut off and only shows a portion of what I've just added.

You need reliable support get TeamSupport.

Rating: 10 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

TeamSupport is currently being used by two departments in our company Central Applications and Techdocs. We use this to help manage and maintain history of our customer (internal and external) interactions. I love this tool. It is very user friendly once you get to know it. :)

Pros

  • Analytic reports are top notch.
  • User friendly.

Cons

  • Only issue was a glitch with repeating tickets. Once reported it was resolved within 48 hours.

Likelihood to Recommend

I think that TeamSupport is suited for anyone that has online support needs.

Versatile and customizable

Rating: 9 out of 10

Pros

  • It allows us to track metrics on what products customers are having issues with, what type of issues and how long it takes to solve an issue. We sell through distribution so we don't usually have a list of end users. With Team Support, anyone who has called in is entered into the database along with what product they are using. We can then use that list to send our Product Advisories or announce major new features.
  • We use the automated features to prompt customers to respond to solutions provided and, after the appropriate number of reminders and days have passed, to automatically close the ticket.

Cons

  • There is currently no way to carry on a side conversation within TeamSupport with internal subscribers vs the external. This means we have to use Outlook to carry on a conversation with engineering and then paste their answers back into the ticket to keep a record of what was discussed.
  • Default settings produce a huge amount of emails. While this relatively easy to modify, when you first start using the product it can be a bit overwhelming.

Likelihood to Recommend

TeamSupport is very customizable in how it looks, what it does and how you interact with it We looked at a half-dozen products before selecting TeamSuport, and we have not been disappointed with our choice at all. Although we have our support divided into 3 regions anyone can access any of the tickets regardless of region if needed. It's extremely flexible in this regard.
