The Jan 2021 Release of OneDesk was rolled out on Jan 23 2021. It included the following features and enhancements.

Any company that provides a service has a number of routine workflows and procedures that they utilize to support their customers. An internet service provider (ISP) is no exception—everything from setup to maintenance to billing can be encapsulated as a workflow that is refined over time in order to provide the best experience for the customer. While these workflows are being improved and iterated on, it can be challenging to apply the workflows to multiple customers without a proper setup.

The following are some useful best practices that you can use to improve the performance of OneDesk and keep your work organized.

With the pandemic that rocked the world in 2020, a spotlight has been shone on healthcare systems and the challenges there are in running these institutions. Beyond the medical and research components, there are lots of supporting departments that are still needed to ensure hospitals and medical equipment are operating effectively.

OneDesk differentiates between tickets and tasks to help you better organize your work environment. Tickets and tasks can be made to behave virtually the same; whatever you can do with a task, you could also do with a ticket and vice-versa. They are both work items and have the same functionality. However, there is a best practice for using them in OneDesk.

Infrastructure and IT are basic requirements for nearly all companies as we live in an increasingly distributed world. For companies that are trying to grow quickly, it can be difficult trying to hire for so many other key roles as well as build out their own IT department. This is where turning to a managed service provider can be a game-changer. By offloading infrastructure and IT strategies to another company, this frees a company up to focus on driving forward in their business goals.

For businesses of any size, consulting firms can help fill in gaps in the organization without having to build out a team or department themselves. The challenge for these firms is keeping track of all of their work across all of their clients. While it may be useful at times to have an overarching view of all work, the details can get lost easily. It is nearly always the case that certain clients will have requests that take precedence over others.
