Streamline ticketing workflows by integrating critical asset information with a help desk system
For busy MSPs with a large and diverse customer list, having a streamlined and efficient ticketing process is key to providing consistent, reliable, and high-quality service. To help facilitate streamlined workflows and more informative ticketing processes, MSPs can use IT asset tracking software that integrates with their help desk ticketing system.
N‑able™ N‑central® can help increase technician efficiency by combining the functionality of IT asset management tracking software with help desk tickets. With this IT asset tracking system, your techs can keep track of assets and the tickets attached to them as they move through the system and get resolved. If technicians need any additional asset information, they’ll have it at their fingertips as they troubleshoot—meaning MSPs can serve customers better and faster while helping prevent downtime.
Maintain accurate records of customer asset histories and configuration changes to improve service
Consistent documentation is notoriously challenging to maintain in any company, let alone an MSP managing multiple complex customer environments. It’s time consuming, often tedious, and many technicians simply don’t know where to start. With N‑central, you can use a single dashboard to help make both IT asset management and documentation much easier.
N‑central integrates with tools like N‑able MSP Manager and N‑able Passportal™ + Documentation Manager so you can maintain accurate inventories of your assets. MSP Manager helps you track asset histories and configuration changes to deliver consistent and reliable services, while Passportal + Documentation Manager standardizes client documentation and helps you expedite issue resolution with accessible records. A well-rounded IT asset tracking system with integrated asset management tools can help keep your technicians organized and productive.
Optimize performance and increase profits with data-driven insights
Once your technicians add IT asset tracking information to help desk tickets, they can start using that information to gather performance data and generate data-driven insights. IT asset tracking information helps you determine which devices are consistently causing issues or regularly taking up a lot of technician time.
Armed with these insights from an N‑central and MSP Manager integration, you can start allocating resources more efficiently and make sure your technicians are using their time effectively. You can also gain an understanding of how issues affect your profits and begin to optimize your workflows to maximize revenue.
Keep assets operational and secure and with powerful diagnostic tools and layered security
Good IT asset tracking software won’t just help you keep track of assets in your managed networks—it will also help facilitate the proactive maintenance of IT assets to keep operations running smoothly. N‑able N‑central comes equipped with numerous features designed to help you resolve potential issues as quickly as possible.
This solution’s diagnostic tools help your technicians understand what kind of maintenance is needed before they start, and intuitive one-click access lets them access managed assets within seconds. The built-in remote access capabilities in N‑central mean your technicians can quickly and securely resolve customer issues, no matter where they are.
For added protection, you can integrate N‑central with Passportal to further protect your assets and minimize the chances of a successful cyberattack causing downtime. Strong passwords are stored in an encrypted vault and protected by multi-layer authentication to prevent cybercriminals from accessing assets containing sensitive information.
