Help Desk Premier was offered at no cost to educational institutions through March of 2013. Dozens of schools, from K-12 through National Universities took advantage of this offer, and are now realizing the benefits of the software, including as an educational tool.
While many schools received their free license to use as their IT departments help desk software, others requested their license to use the software as an educational tool. The NSW Governments Department of Education and Communities in Sydney Australia acquired a license for use at Miller College in Miller, NSW Australia. Miller College needed help desk software as part of their redesigned courses that included running a simulated service desk run by their students. The purpose was to allow students to gain skills and experience working on a customer support team to assist them in securing future employment in the IT industry. They also used Help Desk Premier to provide IT support for other students and the community.
The project was a resounding success, according to John Dixon, the IT Teacher who led the course. The students have really found Help Desk Premier to be a user-friendly system and it has been invaluable in teaching students what it is like to work on a Service Desk / Desktop Support team. It has been a huge improvement over the software that I used last year to the point that last semesters group is a little jealous of it, Dixon said.
Help Desk Premier is newly redesigned help desk software well suited to IT Help Desks, Service Desks, and Customer Support operations of all types. It installs on-premise within an organizations network, and requires minimal effort to install or maintain. Help Desk Premier offers an array of impressive features, including:
- Full Email Integration
- Active Directory Integration
- Multiple Domain Support
- Automatic Ticket Escalation and Notification
- Change Management
- Flexible Customization Capabilities
- Extensive Reporting including Scheduled and Memorized Reports
- Customer self-service Portal
