Web help desk FAQ

What is web-based help desk software?

Web-based help desk software is a ticketing system that runs entirely in the browser. There's nothing to install and no server to maintain - agents log in from any device, updates happen automatically, and customer conversations are stored securely in the cloud.

Can I use HelpDesk without installing anything?

Yes. HelpDesk is fully browser-based, so you open the app URL, log in, and start solving tickets. The only requirement is an internet connection, and your account is ready in about 2 minutes.

Is my data safe in a web help desk?

Yes. HelpDesk meets SOC 2, GDPR, CCPA, PCI DSS (SAQ A), and Data Privacy Framework standards, and your data is stored in certified data centers.

Is a web help desk the same as a ticketing system?

Yes, in practice. A web help desk is a web-based ticketing system. It turns incoming emails and messages into tickets your team can assign, prioritize, and resolve from one shared inbox.

How do I switch from a self-hosted help desk?

You can migrate to HelpDesk for free. The team supports you through the whole migration, including your data, history, and workflows, so you can replace a self-hosted system without a fresh install.
