A powerful built-in search function allows your help center to get instant answers from the knowledge base. Moreover, it even searches for relevant articles based on keywords in tickets. Two types of knowledge base are supported in BoldDesk: a public knowledge base for customers and an internal knowledge base for support team agents. Learn more about the module by perusing the knowledge base page.

In the reports module, BoldDesk provides both dashboards and reports that are useful for analyzing the effectiveness of your support and making informed decisions based on ticket data. Some of the reports support advanced data filtering and saving filters as views. The following reports are built into BoldDesk:

Customer satisfaction (CSAT) survey

The CSAT survey allows you to obtain consumer feedback on the service provided. This helps support team leads quantify and better understand customers’ experiences with the support team. Moreover, it aids to rectify customer complaints and retain customers by modifying the support provided to the level they expect.

Integrations

To provide fast and stellar customer service through BoldDesk, we knew certain features were needed to enhance team cooperation. To this end, we created several integrations and made some significant improvements.

JIRA

JIRA integration with BoldDesk allows the support team to collaborate and stay on top of issues.  In addition, agents can view details such as comments, status, and priority on the ticket list page.

Salesforce

The Salesforce integration helps support teams view customer-centric data in BoldDesk. Agents can view data such as account, contact, lead, and opportunity on the ticket details page.

Custom apps

We built Custom app integration into BoldDesk to get data from any third-party source. By integrating your custom app, you can collect customer data, revenue, order details, and more from the ticket details, contact, and contact groups pages.

Google Drive

Through the integration of Google Drive, agents can share files with customers when adding replies to messages, private notes, and public notes in tickets. Also, you can access and view all files and folders in Google Drive through this connection. Additionally, a search function makes it easier for BoldDesk users to navigate through their files.

Dropbox

Just like Google Drive integration, Dropbox integration lets agents share files with customers when adding replies to messages, private notes, and public notes in tickets. Through this integration, you can access all Dropbox files and folders and view them. The search option makes it finding the right file super easy.

Developer REST API

The REST API helps third-party applications interact with BoldDesk programmatically. It supports read, create, edit, and delete operations, usually in JSON format. Tickets, contacts, contact groups, fields, and other items can be handled using the REST API.

Audit logs for administrators’ control and maintenance

Audit logs provide a crucial service in modern companies by systematically and securely logging the history of every action that is performed. Information about individual events or operations, including access, changes to details, who did an activity, and more, are available through audit logs. They allow admins to track any change. Audit logs can keep even the busiest, most complex systems safe, as each action is automatically recorded and saved for audit analysis. This has great utility for future problem-solving and historical reporting.

Audit logs can also be used to improve operations and increase efficiency since agents can use audited information to analyze past trends within their company.

Unlimited agents

The pricing structure of BoldDesk has been designed to provide all the best features in an affordable package. Notably, we modified the price to make it simpler to manage subscriptions and payments. You’ll never have to worry about having enough licenses for your help desk—you get unlimited agents at an unbeatable price.
