ISSUE TRACKING

Benefits of Issue Tracking Software

An issue tracking is a means through which you can centralize all processes involved in determining the outcomes of a query. Issue tracking systems work best for evolving and flexible situations. Initial issue tracking used to be done through excel and emails. However the number, speed, intensity and complexity of modern day issue tracking rendered emails and excel redundant.

It’s Keeps You Updated

A useful issue tracker equips the agents to work on a matter, pause it and come back to it later on. It also allows everyone involved in customer support to be able to tell the state or resolution of an issue through a couple of clicks. Most importantly it provides a central repository where you can curate essential information for future use.

It’s a Source of Analytics

Through the software, you can decipher how well an issue is being solved, how often it recurred, who handled it and how long it takes to resolve it. You can tell all about a problem just by checking out the repository and flagging the number and frequency of the queries. You can easily decipher which best practices are employed by a particular agent in the team and whether those skills can be taught to the rest.

Give room for Prioritisation

In the event that a firm has to handle tens or hundreds of requests in an hour and possibly within minutes prioritizing can be daunting or even downright impossible. That’s why an app’s capacity to give priority to the critical requests is such a central aspect of efficiency in issue tracking. This is very essential for team’s responsiveness and optimization.

Synergy and Record Keeping

Since you are dealing with a central repository issue tracking software allows you to create a seamless flow of work among the agents and manages the transitions. It helps to eliminate gaps in collaboration and flow of queries. Most importantly it allows for continuity as anyone can walk in at any time and pick up where the last person left.
