When SELEX Systems Integration Ltd needed a single centralised service desk to deal with support requests across multiple territories, it turned to Numara FootPrints for help.
“The reason why we selected Numara FootPrints is because it perfectly matched our application strategy - in that it is a web-based solution with SQL Server in background with single sign-on. Additionally the configurable workflow and escalation capabilities in the product were very attractive because this meant that complicated programming would not be necessary. As a result, our technicians don’t need to have deep technical knowledge of the solution."
