Re: What's this Help Desk software database?



I had subjected Heat as well as many other support management products to an extensive review process quite some time ago.  I found Heat to be one of the leading support management products with extensive customization possibilities.  Heat - as is the case with any of the other products - has its limitations, but those are expressed mostly on the front of enterprise integration.  The top of end of products allow extensive interfaces into other areas, such as production and sales management.  I know that Ian was keen on integrating information with production.

The software is called “HEAT”  It seems to be one of the best in the industry.  I know that there are many out there, but this one offered the flexibility that I believe we need.   I have been collecting data in spreadsheet fashion and after the November election, we will begin entering in the system.  At that time I am sure there will be requests for information and input from many sources.  I am not in a position to venture a guess when we will go live with it, but it will be a priority for the year 2001.

 

 

 

I too am glad to see it becoming a reality.  As we grow it is becoming a necessity that we use this type of a tool.

 

Thanks for your interest.

  You've piqued my interest.  What's this Help Desk software database?  What kind of data will it store?  Who will have access to it?  How can we contribute to it?

  I'm rather curious because I looked in to setting up such a beast eons ago when we were using dumb terminals hanging off of minicomputers.  The options were too expensive at the time.  I'm very glad to hear that it's actually happening.  :-)
