Q2 was a busy quarter for the Desk365 team.Â
Between April and June, we shipped five product releases covering Asset Management, security, AI, search, automation, migrations, and many smaller improvements across the platform.Â
Some updates introduced entirely new capabilities, while others made existing workflows faster and easier. Together, they help support teams spend less time switching between screens, searching for information, and performing repetitive tasks.Â
Here’s a look at everything we launched during Q2.Â
Asset Management received its biggest update
Asset Management saw the largest set of improvements this quarter, making it easier to manage hardware, software, and related information from one place.Â
1. QR codes and barcodes
Every asset can now have its own QR code and barcode. Instead of manually searching for an asset, IT teams can simply scan the code to open the correct asset record instantly. This is especially useful during audits, deployments, and on-site support.Â
2. Link assets while creating tickets
Support agents can now associate assets with tickets while creating them. Having the hardware or software linked from the start gives support agents the context they need without having to search for it later.Â
3. Asset Management on mobile
Asset Management is now available on the Desk365 mobile app. Whether you’re working at a desk or walking around the office, you can view, update, and manage assets directly from your phone.Â
4. Easier product and vendor management
We also made several improvements that simplify day-to-day asset administration:Â
- Faster product and vendor searchÂ
- Create products and vendors without leaving your current workflowÂ
- Bulk software import improvementsÂ
- Bulk editing for assetsÂ
- Support for Non-Associated vendorsÂ
These updates reduce manual work and make maintaining asset information much easier.
Stronger security for every paid plan
Security was another major focus during this Q2.Â
We made Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) available across every paid Desk365 plan, along with additional security controls, including:Â
- Password policiesÂ
- Recovery codes and Â
- Session managementÂ
We also redesigned authentication settings so admins can manage portal security from a single location.
Better visibility into AI
As more teams started using AI in their support workflows, understanding how AI performs became increasingly important. So, this quarter, we introduced several improvements that provide better visibility into AI activity:Â
- AI credit historyÂ
- Conversation historyÂ
- Contact detailsÂ
- Source references for AI responsesÂ
These additions help admins understand how AI is being used and where responses come from.Â
The chatbot also received several usability improvements including:Â
- Dark modeÂ
- Expandable conversationsÂ
- Automatic greetings for first-time visitorsÂ
- A cleaner chat experienceÂ
We’re also actively working on our upcoming Teams AI Agent, which will bring AI-powered support directly into Microsoft Teams using the same knowledge base already available in Desk365.  We’re looking forward to sharing more about that soon, but you can find more info about it here.Â
More language support
We expanded language support across Desk365 to help teams work more comfortably in their preferred language.Â
Support Portal now supports:Â
- MalayÂ
- UrduÂ
- Thai and Â
- PolishÂ
Support Bot supports UK English, European Portuguese, and Spanish (Spain).Â
We also added multilingual support for ticket activities in the Agent Portal, making it easier for global teams to collaborate and manage tickets in their preferred language.
Other improvements across the Desk365 helpdesk
Alongside the larger releases, we also made the below improvements across the platform.Â
- Choose exactly which channels are allowed to create tickets. Â
- Build more flexible workflows with enhanced automation options. Â
- Find tickets faster using exact phrase search, wildcards, and advanced search operators. Â
- Control ticket editing with the new ‘Can Edit Ticket’ permission. Â
- Automatically send survey notifications to the right recipients. Â
- Search and find contacts more quickly. Â
- Display time in a 24-hour format based on your preference. Â
