At TOPdesk, our main priority is to offer you the best and easiest experience within our software. When it comes to Action Management, you might have noticed that there are two types of Action Sequence layouts: one that dates back to when we first introduced the functionality, and a modern one that includes additional features, a smoother look, andmore durability. Easier maintainability that offers a more solid experience.
It’s undeniable: the pandemic irrevocably shifted the way we work. Entire businesses plummeted—physical retailers, restaurants, bars, airlines, and professional sports were among the hardest hit during the worldwide lockdowns. Others, however, found themselves in a surprisingly favourable position. Online grocers, home improvement retailers, computing electronics suppliers, online collaboration platforms—these are a few of the businesses that truly soared during, and (if we can even say so) after, the pandemic. One lasting outcome from these turbulent times was the fact that the pandemic pushed companies over the technology tipping point, transforming businesses forever.
In our current world, where technology and technological expectations are changing fast, it is essential to keep improving the security, reliability and performance of software. For TOPdesk, this is no different. With frequent updates, we keep our software users safe and offer our customers improved features and efficiency. We want to offer this improved software experience not only via our SaaS platform, but also for our on-premises Virtual Appliance (VA) version.
In every organization, change is integral to growth and development. But with change comes risk, and assessing risk well is key to success. Let’s imagine the following situation: we’re looking to buy a brand-new kitchen. Of course, choosing a model that we can afford is the first step. We also need to consider the kitchen’s installment, however. So, alongside the primary question of pricing, we need to ask ourselves questions like: What material should the cupboards be made of? Do we need a plumber for the dishwasher installation? What about an electrician? And how will the new kitchen fit with the aesthetic of the rest of our home?
We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: migrating to Asset Management can be a hefty process. Like any other change, it requires effort, time and adjusting. Not to mention that in the meantime you still have a business to run. But the latest developments and added benefits to TOPdesk Asset Management do make the switch all that more worth it.
So, how do you go through this process as successfully as possible, while also making sure the migration offers a smooth transition for both your IT department and the rest of your colleagues? There’s no straightforward answer to this question, but we’ve compiled a list of our top 5 tips to help your organization start out with TOPdesk Asset Management in the best way you can. Read up below to learn more.
Managing your organization’s IT assets can be a puzzle of its own, and picking a management tool that fits your needs is often a dilemma. As with everything else, there are pros and cons to any technology you go for. One essential question to ask yourself would be: is my tool up-to-date? You want your organization to be up to speed with the best modules available, and if the answer to your question is no, we’re giving you a hint: consider migrating to Asset Management.
Do you know what software tools your company is using? Okay, good. But do you know which users actually need a licence for those tools? And do they have one? Those questions often are a lot harder to answer. However, having a clear overview of what’s being used by whom is essential—both financially and legally. To better address this, we’re happy to share that registering and maintaining licences for your software packages is now fully integrated in the new Asset Management. In this blog, learn more about why this is so important, and how you can get the most out of this feature.

The TOPdesk Self-Service Portal (SSP) is a knowledge base, customer portal and service catalogue in one. It’s a place where your customers quickly find what they need, when they need it – without your help. This helps you create a simple, familiar interface for your customers based on the services you deliver. And above all: it reduces the repetitive calls to your service desk, giving them more time to work on critical issues.
But do you actually know if the content that you provide is, in fact, being used? How many visitors you get per day? Which pages are viewed the most? How do your customers navigate through the SSP? Do they search rather than navigate through the pages? Some reports can answer a few of those questions, but we noticed there is not one overview where you find all this info in one place. This is where the Google Analytics integration, linking your TOPdesk instance with Google’s analytics capabilities, comes into play.
