2. TIP
Have you ever had an idea as to how TOPdesk could improve? Before, you had to register any product feedback with Support which would then be passed on to the Development department. With the TOPdesk Innovation Platform (TIP), you are in control of this process. You register your ideas and vote on features suggested by other customers. If you want to start using TIP, register via the extranet. Make your vote count and let us know what you want in the next version of TOPdesk!
3. Sales
Sometimes you hear about a module you never knew you needed and you want to know more. In this case, Sales is beter suited to answer your questions. They're not there only to sell TOPdesk. Sales can also provide you with whitepapers or inform you of the possibilities and usefulness of a new module for your organization. Support can only tell you about the generic use of a module or what a specific setting does. Sales knows what other customers need and how you can use the module.
4. Consultancy
Another department which, in specific cases, is a better place to ask your question is Consultancy. Just as Sales knows the cost of modules and how valuable/cost-effective a puchase of a module will be, Consultancy knows more about how to configure TOPdesk to suit your organization's process. If you want to know the best practices for a module or how to set up a certain workflow, Consultancy is your best bet. A conversation with Support will just give you the plain answer, but a conversation with Consultancy will provide you with insight and an understanding of your process
