Top reasons to switch from Jira to OneDesk
All-in-one project managment & help desk
While Jira provides robust project management features, OneDesk provides a complete all-in-one tool for your whole team. Support customers and end-users as well as plan and manage tasks and large projects without the need for multiple applications.
The ability to integrate help desk features can benefit companies from diverse industries. For example, a software company can collect customer feedback or feature requests as tickets. OneDesk allows you to convert any ticket into a task. So if the company decides to integrate a customer idea into their release schedule, they can easily escalate that ticket to a task.
Collaborate with client-facing applications
Whether you want to manage customer or end-user feedback or share progress with clients, customer-facing applications allow you to collaborate smoothly. Jira does not provide tools to manage customer relationships. Alternatively, OneDesk provides several customer tools. For instance the portal provides a place for clients to login and stay updated on tickets or tasks. An embeddable widget lets you serve customers or end-users instantly with the live chat feature, as well as allows clients to explore your company with the built in knowledgebase. You can also create customizable webforms, allowing clients to submit tickets or task with the information you need.
