ON-PREMISE
Your helpdesk, your way
Sometimes you need full control over your helpdesk software and all of your student and staff data. That's why we leave the choice between On-Premise or Cloud solution down to you. If you have specific needs over hardware, data and processes, Deskpro On-Premise gives you the freedom to set things up exactly how you like.
Unlike other leading helpdesk solutions, Deskpro can either be deployed on your own server infrastructure or as a fully hosted Cloud service on industry leading data centers, AWS. We're confident you know what's best for your organization.
Deskpro On-Premise means you're in charge of your data backup policy- with complete control over access.
Host your helpdesk on any particular domain or subdomain of your choice with On-Premise.
Deskpro On-Premise can be hosted on multiple servers for performance scalability and availability.
Deskpro can work behind your firewall; allowing access to customers who log in using your secure network.
We talk to our peers regularly in higher education. Without question, we would recommend Deskpro to other universities. We've found a sweet spot that really drives customer service over metrics.John SpadaroDeputy Chief Information Officer
