Outsourced IT help desk tiers that SupportYourApp can help you with
Famously, help desk support can be separated into several tiers, depending on the complexity of the product and the level of the involvement needed from the support team. We at SupportYourApp have expertise in providing support for all these tiers and can help set up the process for all our clients.
We have experience in providing support for:
-
Tier 0 (L0, T0)
Tier 0 is essentially a self-help desk. It is usually a knowledge base that can be found on the websites under the names “FAQ”, “QNA”, “About our services” and so on. Our teams gather the information needed to comprise these sections of the websites from the clients and then make it as readable and understandable for your customers as possible.
We have found Tier 0 to be one of the most helpful tools when it comes to help desk outsourcing. First, while it is being composed, our teams are learning everything they need to provide the best outsourced help desk support services they can. Second, it eliminates a lot of pressure and workload of SupportYourApp consultants because customers gain the possibility to resolve some of the simplest and most common issues as well as gain answers to the most common questions themselves.
-
Tier 1 (L1, T1)
Tier 1 consultants deal with common customer questions that still require explanation and some kind of basic human help. This level of outsourced help desk support usually requires simple answers and knowledge — just enough to make sure that regular and common customers’ questions get answered in the shortest amount of time. With about 80% of the tickets being solved on tier 1, we pay extra attention to SupportYourApp help desk consultant’s knowledge level — it must be up to date, and they must be able to answer all kinds of questions — from the simplest to the most difficult ones.
To make sure that our teams’ skills and knowledge are just enough, we perform regular QA (short for quality assurance) as well as regularly check the level of knowledge of all our consultants. Our Service Delivery Managers are also very glad to act as a bridge between the outsourced help desk support team and the client in case there is any information lacking from the knowledge base.
-
Tier 2 (L2, T2)
Tier 2 outsourced help desk support consultants are usually more knowledgeable and tech-savvy than those working with tier 1 inquiries. Tier 2 tickets usually have more fluent KPIs — for example: resolution takes more time as the inquiries are more demanding and require more time to be resolved. For such help desk outsourcing scenarios our clients may establish first response time KPI — the time in which our consultants must notify the customer that their inquiry was seen and is being processed.
In order for the customers to know that they are speaking with a real person and not with a robot, these responses must come in as short a time as 15-30 seconds (for chat) and 30-60 minutes (for email). They have to be personalized, and they have to make the customers understand that their help desk tickets are being processed and their issues are going to be resolved soon.
-
Tier 3
The most technically difficult and demanding of all the tiers — the third one. Tickets on tier 3 often require escalation and need extra attention from the developers or the vendors themselves. For tier 3 our teams must follow up the customers on the status of their ticket as well as the actions needed to resolve the ticket completely. Surely, help desk outsourcing is one of the best ways to ensure fast resolution of tier three tickets as the development team does not get distracted with the ticket of the lower tiers — our consultants will take care of them.
As you can see, help desk outsourcing is the best way to ensure that all customers get their issues resolved in a timely manner and in accordance with their needs.

Development and implementation of knowledge base
The second step in developing and implementing the knowledge base.

We take into account all the specificities of the product and the complexity of the information to set realistic time scopes to launch our help desk support team.
-
Team approval
Vendors might not be able to communicate with the team all the time, but our clients are our number 1 priority which means that they must be 100% comfortable with those who provide outsourced help desk support for your product. That is why they can take an active part in choosing, training and interacting with the support team. They can be as involved as they like or want. Our help desk outsourcing services are totally adjustable to their specific needs and wants.

Learning process includes simulation calls with the Service Delivery Manager, passing various tests and going through feedforward sessions — these steps ensure that the future help desk outsourcing work goes by smoothly and with no roadblocks.
