Frequently Asked Questions
Automation in a helpdesk system uses rules and triggers to handle repetitive tasks automatically, such as ticket assignment, status updates, notifications, and escalations. Helpdesk 365’s automation eliminates manual work by routing tickets to the right agents, sending alerts when SLAs are at risk, and updating ticket statuses based on predefined conditions—allowing your support team to focus on resolving issues rather than managing processes.
Helpdesk 365 offers multiple automated ticket assignment methods including Round Robin (equal distribution), Weighted Round Robin (balanced workloads based on agent capacity), Skill-Based Routing (matches tickets to agents with relevant expertise), and Priority Routing (urgent issues reach senior staff immediately). These rules ensure tickets are routed instantly to the right person without manual intervention, eliminating delays and confusion.
Yes, automation is critical for SLA management. Helpdesk 365 sends automatic reminders when tickets approach deadlines, escalates tickets automatically if SLA timers are about to expire, and prioritizes SLA-bound tickets in queues for faster responses. This proactive approach ensures your team stays on track and prevents broken service commitments.
You can automate various workflows including ticket routing based on keywords or priority, approval processes, follow-up reminders, auto-closing inactive tickets, escalations for unresolved issues, customer and agent notifications, and status updates. For example, you can automatically assign tickets mentioning “urgent” to escalation teams or notify managers when high-value customer tickets are opened.
Absolutely. Helpdesk 365 automation scales seamlessly whether you’re a small team or handling thousands of daily tickets. It’s particularly valuable for high-volume support teams, multi-department environments (IT, HR, Finance), SLA-driven service contracts, remote teams needing alignment, and growing businesses that need to scale without adding headcount. The automation adapts to your specific needs and grows with your organization.
