One Desk, Every Asset, Every Request SCENE 1/8
Self-hosted IT service desk + asset management

Everything your IT team handles, in one place.

SupportCentral runs on your own PHP & MariaDB host. Tickets, company assets, employees, vendors, subscriptions and approvals — one system instead of five spreadsheets and an inbox.

Email to ticket · smart threading

One conversation stays one ticket.

An employee emails the helpdesk; their lead and manager reply; the employee replies again. SupportCentral reads the mail headers and keeps every message on the same ticket — even if the subject line changes.

E
Employee · new mail
"Excel keeps asking me to sign in."
T
Team lead · reply
"Looking into your licence now."
M
Manager · reply (same time)
"Approving the reactivation."
E
Employee · reply later
"Thanks — it works again."

Auto-categorization

Tickets sort themselves.

A keyword engine (pre-loaded with a real IT triage table) reads each ticket and assigns a category — and flags requests that belong to HR or Finance as out of scope, so your queue stays clean.

"vpn not connecting"Network
"office 365 licence"Software
"payroll / HRMS login"Out of scope
Assets & allocations

Know every device and who has it.

Track assets through their whole life — assign, return, replace, dispatch, retire. Allocation views break the fleet down by processor and by age, with CSV export and a 3-year ageing alert.

Reports · agent performance

See who resolved what, monthly.

A built-in monthly report shows tickets resolved per agent, average handle time, average first response, and SLA-met percentage — with CSV export. Or build your own in Report Studio.

Roles & permissions

Give people exactly the access they need.

Twelve ready-made roles, fully editable — or create custom roles by ticking permissions per module. Changes apply immediately, and custom roles are assignable to users right away.

Automation & notifications

Let the system watch for you.

Turn events into actions: notify admins on a new ticket, alert when a vendor contract is expiring, or flag an asset that has crossed three years in service. You decide what fires — everything is opt-in.

Contract expiring → email ITon
Asset reached 3 years → notifyon

An assistant on the front desk — for IT and HR.

A chat assistant greets every visitor, works out whether the question is IT or HR, answers from your own knowledge base, and only involves a person when it needs to. Two personas, one engine — and ask the wrong desk, it offers to hand you across with your question.

Guided walkthroughs, not walls of text.

Turn an article into a wizard that walks someone through the fix one screen at a time. If a step doesn't work the next one appears — and if nothing does, it opens a ticket that already lists what they tried.

Live chat your agents can actually run.

The waiting queue refreshes on its own, and every chat can be attended, transferred to the other helpdesk, or declined politely. IT agents see IT chats, HR agents see HR chats, owners see everything.

Hardware faults, from report to replacement.

Intake captures the serial, power state and remote-access ID up front — with video for intermittent faults — and links the record to the asset automatically. Replacements dispatch with tracking, and the case closes only once receipt is confirmed and the old unit is back.

Know your fleet by configuration, not guesswork.

Assets break down by processor and memory with unit counts and the monthly rent for each — a grand total you can reconcile against the invoice. Click a line to see exactly those machines; export to XLS or PDF.

Open to everyone — without being open to abuse.

Anyone can raise a request without an account, so the public endpoints are rate-limited: submissions, sign-in attempts, reset emails, sign-ups and chat starts all cap per client. A flood becomes “please slow down” instead of a buried queue — and real users are never locked out if the limiter itself fails.
