MS 365 Help Desk

Microsoft 365 Help Desk

Provide efficient support and resolution with a full-featured help desk integrated with Microsoft 365.

Microsoft 365 email ticketing system

Email alone lacks features to optimally manage and track support requests. A help desk for MS 365 provides a suite of features to efficiently resolve email tickets and automate support processes. Fully integrate your support inbox(es) to create tickets from email. 

Create tickets from MS 365

Directly connect your Microsoft 365 support inbox to the OneDesk ticketing system. Integration is a simple on-click process using OAuth. Customers send their requests to your email address. Then, tickets are automatically created in the OneDesk ticketing system. Track, manage, and resolve all tickets in OneDesk. 

Respond from your Microsoft 365 address

Your whole team can respond to customer tickets from OneDesk. Emails are sent to your customers’ inbox via your own MS 365 support account (SMTP).  Using an integrated Microsoft 365 help desk gives customers clarity and trust when interacting with your team.

Manage multiple support inboxes

Have multiple departments or support inboxes? OneDesk allows you to integrate multiple MS 365 accounts. You can set different rules based on each email account. For instance, create different ticket types depending on the inbox. Or, triage tickets to the right department based on the email’s origin.

Enable clarity on the status and progress of all customer requests. Each request can be assigned to an agent, contains a history of activities, and clear indicators of priority, progress, and status. Agents always know what they are accountable for and managers know what needs to be actioned. 

Get a full picture of requests

Never lose track of requests. See key indicators from your default ticket view. Easily filter, sort, or group to drill down to the data you need. Save your custom work views for later. Switch between each work view as needed.

  • Assign tickets
  • Send responses
  • Update statuses
  • and much more!

Monitor team performance and gather actionable data based on customer feedback. Automatically send out surveys on resolved tickets. The survey is sent directly to the customer, allowing them to rate their satisfaction and add comments.

Improve support processes

Improve your support processes over time. Use real-time charts and graphs to track key performance indicators such as workload, resolution times, and customer satisfaction. Schedule reports to extract data about tickets. Customize reports by choosing the groupings, filters, date range, and more.
