Digital communication has seen some major developments in the last few years. Moving from basic SMS to apps like WhatsApp and Instagram Stories, complicated text-based platforms have been replaced with tools that feature simple, icon-driven UIs. So why are many IT admins and technicians still using outdated troubleshooting tools?

Enterprises comprise thousands of computers and devices, and technicians have to manage and monitor each of these devices while resolving users’ ticketsAnd those tickets can be expensive. Jeff Rumburg, co-founder of MetricNetestimates that each ticket costs organizations $85 on average, while it takes $118 to resolve just one service request

The cost of resolving tickets is alarming, especially considering that one technician might handle hundreds of tickets each month. For organizations that are looking to reduce their IT costs, new communication technologies might just be the answer. With some enhanced troubleshooting tools, technicians can improve their average SLA resolution time and reduce costs for their organization. And that’s exactly what ManageEngine has come up with: a set of enhanced troubleshooting tools for Desktop Central.
