FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How long does it take to transition Service Desk?
As a rule of thumb we send a task force onsite to the current provider, to work side by side with them, creating documentation and learning how to support the customer. Then they return with members of the existing providers for 2 more weeks to finish the handover. All in all, it takes 4 weeks to properly transition the Service Desk.
What Service Management system will be used?
We use our own system within Atea but we are also able to integrate customer’s ITSM systems with ours.
Is Self Service included?
Yes, Self Service is included in the 3rd generation Service Desk.
What hours do you provide Service Desk?
The Atea Global Service desk is available 24/7/365.
How do you decrease the number of tickets?
We decrease the number of tickets by working together with our customers through a concept we like to call the Atea Smart Service Center. The Atea Smart Service Center enables end-user profiling, analytics and automation, which together with continuous service improvements, help achieve a reduced number of tickets and absorption of “hidden tickets” thus bringing down the cost of end-user support.
