RE: Track-It 7.0?

Don't think a release date has been set in stone, but I do know that the last wave of the beta is done the middle of this month.  I would expect that they would try to get it out around the new year.
 
As far as new features, there are some great new features that will be in 7.0 some of which are. 
 
The software licensing management is brought to a whole different level and makes it much easier to keep track of licensing and contracts. 
Automatic discovery of IT assets beyond just computers.  Items such as printers, switches, hubs & routers can all be managed in 7.0. 
Installation and upgrade to 7.0 is also improved.
Remote installation of the Tech Client and Workstation Manager.
Multimedia video tutorials in the help menu.
 
 
FYI- I am not affiliated with Track-IT, so don't shoot me if I have misspoken.

RE: Evaluating Track-It

It might be a good idea to post some of the issues/goals you want to
accomplish with your helpdesk solution.

Re: Evaluating Track-It

I need to know it terms of Intuit as a company and support for the 
product.  It meets pretty much all our objectives however I heard 
from another source otherwise about the product's future and 
support.  Also, how's the product in terms of reputation and overall 
feeling?

RE: Re: Evaluating Track-It

I have always found the support to be pretty good.  Sometimes you may
have wait for a service pack or hotfix to fix some annoying little thing
but rarely is it something seriously wrong.  The application itself is
easy for anyone to pick up and the help menus are pretty good.  The
application does lack a good forum for those that use the application to
share knowledge.  This mailing list is about it, besides the support.
Hopefully this will change!

As far as the company, Intuit has all but completed the sale of the ITS
portion to TA Associates.  Honestly, it made me think about the future
of the product as well but as I look deeper into TA and its history, I
am not worried.  TrackIT continues to grow and I would expect this trend
to continue with the purchase to TA.  http://www.ta.com

I think you will find the reputation varies from helpdesk to helpdesk.
I have used solutions that we much more expensive and bloated but I
still enjoy the easy to use features of TrackIt.  

Some things that the software lacks that are important are that the
Library module does not have any scheduling capabilities.  It would be
nice if the web front end had a place to check out and item in advance.
Also multiple Libraries would be nice to have.  Customization of the
fields are pretty nice, but would be better if the fields could be moved
to different tabs on the screen.  Automated reporting is not existent,
you must run the report manually (I heard they are working on this).

Fyi-  I am not affiliated with TrackIT and have been using the
Enterprise version of the product.  So my rambling may not reflect
features in the other versions.

Marty

Technician Notification

We are a small IT shop (3 techs) and we all monitor the helpdesk 
queue. I've set up a default priority of pending for all new tickets. 
I would like to be able to notify each tech when a pending ticket has 
been sitting for an hour. Is this possible? 
I know that I can set one tech as a default and that one tech would be 
notified, but I would like to notify all of use and not use a default 
tech if possible.
Any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks in advance.

RE: Technician Notification

Set the email address for the default tech to a distribution list that
emails all the folks.  Would that work?
