OSTicket
Overview
- Overview
-
osTicket is an open-source support-ticket system that converts requests from email, web forms, and staff entry into a shared queue. Organizations can self-host the community edition or use a commercially hosted and supported service from the project’s vendor.
A shared ticket history preserves the request, assigned responsibility, and resolution. Technology teams use that record to coordinate work that would otherwise remain in individual email conversations. Consistent request types, locations, and status definitions help teams interpret workload and service outcomes without losing the detail of individual cases.
