Everflow's service desk

Getting help, made simpler-er.

Pick a form, or just say what's wrong. Ripple asks your manager to sign off, suggests a fix while you type and rings the bell when anything moves. One desk for every department that helps people.

Every department you add works its own way, on the same desk.

Approvals

Needs sign-off? Name your manager.

A form can ask for the requester's manager, a named approver or someone from a set list. They get a link, add a note and decide in one click. Nothing reaches the team until it's approved, and the SLA starts then, so waiting for a signature never counts against anyone.

  • Approvers see the request and its files, never the rest of the ticket.
  • It shows as Awaiting approval until someone decides or it's closed.
  • If an approver leaves, their requests go to the team's leads.

Incidents

Something broken? Help shows up as you type.

Describe it in your own words. Guides from the team's knowledge base appear as you type, so the quick fixes fix themselves. If it still needs a person, two plain questions set the priority through the department's own matrix.

  • Who's affected? Many people, a few people or just me.
  • How urgent is it? Work has stopped, is affected or can wait.
  • Staff see the answers under Priority and can still change it.

Everything else

The rest of the desk, done properly.

The parts nobody notices until they're missing.

SLAs that pause fairly

First-response and resolution targets per department and priority. Waiting on the requester pauses the clock; waiting on a supplier doesn't, because that's part of our service. A warning goes out before anything breaches.

Email becomes a ticket

Mail to the service desk turns into a ticket, and replies land on the right one.

The device, on the ticket

Agents see the laptop from Intune, read-only, open N-central remote control and run approved fixes such as Restart print spooler.

Help & Guides

Each team writes its own guides, and the portal offers them while people describe a problem.

Rules that route

Send each kind of ticket to the right department automatically, set its priority, or hand it to the least busy agent.

Reports that export what they show

Volume, SLA compliance, response and resolution times, workload and satisfaction, filtered by department, form, priority or agent. Every card downloads as a CSV built from the same data, so the page and the spreadsheet always agree.

How did we do?

When a ticket's resolved, the requester rates it Good, Okay or Poor. Opening the email link only preselects, so mail scanners can't vote.

GoodOkayPoor

Data & privacy

Retention under UK GDPR, and one-click export or erasure of a person's data, all in the audit log.

Copy people in

CC a manager on a ticket and they can follow along without asking for updates.

Known-issue banners

Whoever's on shift posts an outage notice at the top of every page, so nobody raises the same ticket twice.

One desk, every role

Everyone sees exactly what they should.

Access is checked on every page and every action, not just hidden in the menu.

Requester
Everyone at Everflow

Raises tickets from the portal, follows and replies to their own, and reads the ones they're copied in on.

Agent
Works a team's queue

Internal notes, every field and a dashboard, on their departments' tickets only. Another team's ticket is a plain 404.

Department lead
Runs a team

Manages the team, categories, forms, replies, guides, rules, SLA targets and reports from My Department.

Admin
Looks after the whole desk

Every department, plus users, the catalogue, automations, the email inbox, the audit log and data retention.

Approver
Anyone, staff or not

Sees the request they were asked about and the files it came with. Never the ticket, never anything else.

Built to be trusted

Careful with your accounts, your data and each team's tickets.

is all anyone sees of a ticket that isn't theirs

Read-only to Entra

People arrive from Entra through SCIM, one way. Ripple can't create, change, disable or delete an account there, and a test fails if anyone tries.

Microsoft sign-in, checked

An account links to Microsoft only when the Entra object id agrees, not just because the email matches.

Walls between teams

Agents see and act on their own departments' tickets. Guides follow the same rules.

Internal notes stay internal

Requesters see their own tickets without staff notes or the audit trail, and staff previewing the portal see exactly the same.
