Boca Raton, FL (PRWEB) October 18, 2006

A new build of Richmond Systems’ SupportDesk help desk solution is now available from North American distributor CrossTec Corporation. Aside from supporting new programs, SupportDesk v6.2 contains a variety of new user features.

Additions found in the new build include a setup console that simplifies and quickens configuration of the service desk; improved management of support requests through more extensive charting and reporting; improved integration with Windows® Active Directory and new integration with Goldmine and PC remote control solutions. SupportDesk now works with Microsoft SQL 2005, Citrix Server, and Terminal Services.

New usability features quicken the process of managing requests and a setup console provides a guided mode for first-time configuration of Richmond SupportDesk and configuration of an existing SupportDesk database. The live management console now includes full screen charting options and even more pre-built reports and queries, allowing support specialists and managers to get a 360 degree, interactive view of support activities.

Richmond SupportDesk aims to help technicians meet industry standard best practices, provide high quality support, manage information, and allow customers to easily track their own support requests.
