Live Virtual Help Desk Optimizes Services With Autotask
Leading "Live" Support Help Desk and Network Operating Center Service Selects Autotask PSA to Manage Thousands of Service Calls and Transactions for MSP Clients
Autotask Corporation, the worldwide leader in hosted IT business management software, announced that its software has been selected as the preferred service platform for Live Virtual Help Desk (LiveVHD), a leading "Live" Help Desk and Network Operating Center (NOC) service for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) in North America. LiveVHD will standardize its operations on the Autotask platform to streamline, automate and manage thousands of service tickets on behalf of their NOC nerve center and help desk services clients.
LiveVHD's support services allow MSPs of all sizes to offer live, front-end phone support to their end users and clients as a direct extension of their own company. The service also gives MSPs the opportunity to add more end clients and increase market share without investing in additional technical staff or costly IT infrastructure.
Autotask CEO, Bob Godgart, explains, "We're thrilled that Live VHD has chosen the Autotask platform to provide top-notch ‘live' support for MSPs, and giving MSPs an excellent way to build out their business at a low fixed cost. This represents a huge value for MSPs and IT service providers and gives our Autotask customers an additional support service to get excited about."
"Many of the partners that I work with are using LiveVHD rather than hiring additional staff," offered Stuart Selbst, CEO and Founder of Stuart Selbst Consulting. "Some of the feedback I'm hearing from my partners is that the LiveVHD staff is extremely knowledgeable. MSPs using LiveVHD get a certified engineer who will troubleshoot, resolve and close a large percentage of the tickets on their behalf, rather than a level one tech, and now, everything will flow through Autotask so that nothing ever falls through the cracks. It's this type of feedback that makes me glad that I have engaged the LiveVHD team."
Using Autotask PSA software and it's direct integrations with the industry's leading remote management and monitoring tools, LiveVHD can offer MSPs a low, fixed monthly fee, per end point, and provide NOC services for server support, monitoring and issue remediation, as well as unlimited phone, ticketing and e-mail support. In turn, MSPs can offer their clients this value-added service for desktops, laptops, servers, handheld devices and network devices in a way and at a price that works best for their managed service portfolio.
"We're confident that standardizing on the Autotask platform will increase our ability to deliver world-class services to our clients, and we look forward to providing a robust suite of "Live" Help Desk and NOC support services to the MSP community," added Neil Jones, president of Live Virtual Help Desk.
