Deskpro

Deskpro is a help desk and customer service platform developed by a company headquartered in the United Kingdom, known for offering both cloud-hosted and self-hosted on-premises deployment options. This flexibility has made it a popular choice with organisations that have strict data sovereignty, security or compliance requirements, including government agencies, educational institutions and regulated enterprises. The problem it addresses is the need for a comprehensive, multi-channel support platform that can be tailored to diverse workflows and deployed in environments where public cloud solutions may not be permitted. Deskpro consolidates customer and employee support interactions into a single interface, allowing agents to manage requests efficiently and managers to monitor performance. Its approach emphasises configurability and control, providing extensive options to customise ticket fields, workflows, permissions and branding without compromising ease of use for agents or end users.

The platform supports email, live chat, voice, messaging, social media and web forms, bringing all conversations into a unified ticketing system with automation, service level agreements, macros and escalation rules. A built-in knowledge base, community forums and self-service portal help customers find answers independently, while guides and news publishing support content management. Reporting tools provide customisable dashboards, a query language for bespoke reports and satisfaction survey results. Deskpro integrates with a wide range of third-party applications, including Jira, Salesforce, Microsoft Teams, Slack and various CRM and identity providers, and offers a developer platform for building custom apps. Security features include single sign-on, granular permissions, audit logs and data encryption. It serves IT service desks, customer support teams, HR and facilities departments across industries including education, government, software, healthcare and gaming. Its multi-brand capabilities suit organisations supporting several products. Pricing starts from around USD 39, typically per agent per month, with a free trial; there is no permanently free version.
