How SupportYourApp Helped an IT Help Desk Service Provider Achieve 96% Increase in Ticket Resolution

Challenges

• 

  Multi-platform desktop support

  The client needed Level 1 and Level 2 desktop support across macOS, Windows, and Linux, but had no dedicated team to handle day-to-day issues consistently across all three operating systems at once.

• 

  Omnichannel request handling

  Technical requests came in through email, instant messaging, and in-person visits, and each one needed a fast response to keep downtime for end users to a minimum.

• 

  Ticket volume and tracking

  Support tickets needed daily triage by severity, plus documentation thorough enough for other teams to pick up an issue midstream, but the client had no consistent process for either.

• 

  Onboarding and network upkeep

  New IT help desk consultants needed onboarding on email setup and application provisioning, while hardware installs, network maintenance, and equipment inventory still needed ongoing, hands-on management.

Solution

SupportYourApp built a dedicated infrastructure team from the ground up and paired it with a set of industry-standard tools to run the whole operation.

• 

  Dedicated infrastructure team

  SupportYourApp recruited candidates against the client's technical and cultural requirements, screening them through internal interviews, skill evaluations, and a final task-based approval round before anyone joined the team.

• 

  Structured onboarding program

  New team members spent two weeks on an onboarding program covering the client's SOPs, IT systems, and required software, including hands-on email setup, application configuration, and troubleshooting practice.

• 

  Omnichannel ticket workflow

  Requests from email, instant messaging, and in-person visits were categorized, prioritized, and tracked through to resolution, with documentation supporting handoffs and proactive escalation to higher-level teams or vendors.

• 

  Network operations and tooling

  SupportYourApp integrated Datto RMM, Crescendo, AutoTask, Microsoft 365, LogicMonitor, and Cisco WebEx into daily workflows, and kept refining the setup with cloud-first improvements.
