Overall Satisfaction with TOPdesk
After being used solely by the IT-department for two years to keep track of incoming requests and issues, TOPdesk is now being configured to streamline HR processes and primary administration processes as well. A Self Service Portal is being configured, that will make it easy for employees and management to initiate requests that kick off various workflows and that they can monitor keep track of themselves.
20 -
- IT service management
- HR hiring process and changes for employees and interns
- Primary process: the administration of clients with disabilities that we provide care to.
- TOPdesk can be tailored to specific needs, by means of a broad range of functionality modules that can be added when needed or left out when not. This makes TOPdesk versatile and highly configurable, without unneeded clutter and complexity.
- Elaborate workflows are easy to create, can span various departments and can trigger custom notifications and automated actions at any point in the flow, dependant on any thinkable (set of) criteria.
- The user interface of TOPdesk is attractive, clear and consistent across modules. The comprehensive search, card (tab) management and personal dashboards make for an idividually customizable experience.
- The form engine of TOPdesk absolutely needs to improve. As it stands, it is usable only for the most basic of tasks. Conditional questions can only be triggered on the value of a single radio button. Checkboxes, dropdowns and the like cannot be used to steer the flow within a dynamic form, nor is there an option to create composite conditions. Furthermore, the styling is fixed and cannot be altered in any way. This is too bad, as the styling has various spacing flaws that you need to work around using empty text items. Questions cannot be copied within a form, nor from one form to another.
- It is too early to assess ROI benefits
