Teamwork Desk

"Teamwork still is and has been the best and continually improving Team Management App EVER!"

Opmerkingen: WONDERFUL!!!

Pluspunten: Everything.
- Features and definitely the app loading speed which is near instant loading.
- Much so their continuous innovation, along with their public road map.

Minpunten: - I do wish one thing, and that is user permissions would respect all tab settings and left panel categories within the app, but some of it is set to show based on a "team" and not all to the individual "team member". - Also the Gant Chart, I've seen some better implementations and that would could be nicely improved in Teamwork.

"Overall good, but room for improvement"

Opmerkingen: We've been using Teamwork Projects and Teamwork Desk for several years and we're generally happy. The landscape of this type of software changes/evolves regularly and every few years we review our options. We recently reviewed other systems and decided to re-commit to using TW Projects and Desk, but use some other services that integrate with Teamwork. One of the notably missing features from TW is a timesheet review process. Timekeeping is very important to our business and we need a system that will automatically close out timesheets at the end of the week and enforce a timesheet submission and approval process. We evaluated several options and decided to use Harvest App. This integrates with TW and has a timesheet approval system, and it has invoicing and reporting features that are generally better than TW. There are also some workflow/productivity improvements that could be implemented, and I've made my case to Teamwork several times over the past several years to implement these minor changes, but so far my requests have not been adopted (and I have not been told they are not feasible). For example, in TW Desk, when an agent posts a reply, they have the option to "reassign" the ticket to another agent in the same step as posting the reply. In TW Projects this functionality does not exist. This means when a user posts a comment in Projects, if they want to assign the task to another user, they must go through several steps to "edit" the task. Not only is it a slowdown in the workflow, but users forget to do it. In a busy office it's important that tasks get properly assigned so that everyone knows who is responsible for a task. Another particularly annoying problem with TW Projects is notifications. There's no practical way to simply "notify" a user that a task has been created without either "assigning" the task to that user, or making the user a "follower" with the setting "all notifications". The implication of this limitation is when creating a new task you must choose between users getting no notifications that a task has been created, or being inundated with notifications. Perhaps we're not using the application properly, but I've brought this limitation to Teamwork's support team on several occasions and have never received a helpful answer (that we're doing it wrong, that it can't be implemented, or it will be implemented). If anyone at TW wants to contact me I'll provide more details. Thanks!

"irreplaceable ticket tracking software"

Opmerkingen: On a daily basis I constantly get requests to handle this or that from all of our account managers, sometimes even from our directer of operations. the ability to track all of these tickets is a life saver. i have had a request come in to cancel a client or make a particular change to their IVR, only to have it come into question at a later date. the ability to search and find the specific request, who sent it, what i did, and when have been a saving grace on numerous occasions.

Pluspunten: The thing that i like most about the teamwork desk is that i can keep all of my work orders neatly filed and accessible. The program gives me the option to have various outcomes of each ticket that comes through.

Minpunten: I feel maybe the layout of the interface could be a little more user friendly or easier to find specific items.

"Wonderful Help Desk Software"

Opmerkingen: We utilize the desk system for our own client issues. We also utilize another instance for clients' customer issues.

Pluspunten: Teamwork Desk has amazing features. The automated responses and customization to the ticketing system and help doc area are superior to other help desk/ticket software.

Minpunten: Due to the deep customization options, there is a level of complexity required to configure external email and other connections and configurations. May require a technical person to firm everything up.

"Its pretty good..... but needs more features!"

Opmerkingen: * Could use a more customizable Gantt chart options (not show weekends, calculate hours of a project by working hours in a day) * There is a security flaw on the mobile app that allows my client to see internal private messages not intended for him to see, from his notification bar on his iPhone. TW claims this is not possible, but it keeps happening. * Would like to be able to embed text into a new task to encourage people who open a new task to fill out all the required fields. This was any time they create the new task its there. * The tagging system should be project specific.

Pluspunten: its relatively easy to use

Minpunten: Mobile app is slow and hard to navigate
