Centennial Discovery Software -

HEAT Helpdesk Software Integration

In a Helpdesk/Support environment, it is ideal to have access to current audited asset information when taking support calls from customers/users instead of working with static historical data or attempting to glean the required details from your customer/user.

The problem has traditionally been how do we get the asset configuration data and keep it up to date and how do we utilise this data within our existing support operations?

NetWorld UK's product development team have designed and implemented an integrated solution which fits the best of breed Centennial Discovery PC Auditing Solution seamlessly with the HEAT Service and Support Helpdesk Applications.

Summary of use in the Support Environment

A member of your support team has identified the asset in question either via an asset number, serial number or a user ID, this single piece of information is utilised to action a lookup on the Centennial Discovery Software database which will populate the HEAT call record with the assets hardware and software configurations thus leaving no question as to how the asset may be configured.

Working with accurate and up to date asset configuration data will:

• Make your support team more productive and able to handle a greater volume of  support calls in shorter space of time by reducing the time taken on logging calls against assets correctly.

• Increases effectiveness in first time fix rates by ensuring that energies are not wasted working with inaccurate data which will generate additional work requirement.

• Provide accurate helpdesk management reports ie: Asset Trend Analysis, Call Trend Analysis and many more.

• Ensure the correct hardware replacements or software updates are ordered and dispatched to correct makes and models.

• In short there are many many saving and advantages to be gained in having Centennial Discovery Integrated to your HEAT Helpdesk solution, many of which will be applicable to an individual organisation and its own support processes.

• Additionally with the Centennial Discovery Web Edition we have provided the option to link dynamically from your HEAT Helpdesk to the Centennial Discovery record for detailed asset hardware and software information.
