Product(s): TOPdesk

Overall Comment:"Topdesk is our main ticketing tool where user can log their ticket via email or via the self service portal. Our experience isn't that great seeing as we need to hire a consultant every time we need a change to the system. There seems to be no build-in ITIL framework. Change management is inexistent as we needed someone to build it up from scratch."
