Robust SLAs
Different SLA options are available that enable you to provide you with periodic reminders before the tickets are due and help you to stay on top of ticket escalations. You can also set up a No SLA policy if needed and have the option of selecting a different default SLA for different companies.
Measure Customer Satisfaction Ratings
Create and send surveys to get direct feedback from your customers whenever a ticket is resolved or closed.
