We use Footprints here at UNL, changed over from Remedy about 2 years ago.
It works, seems to be a 'does many things' package that we're mostly just u=
sing for trouble tickets and some change management.
My biggest concern is that customer (student) interaction is built around e=
mail. I find many students prefer texting and chat over email and may only =
check their email occasionally.

Subject: What product is your organization using for Ticket Tracking?

Good afternoon all,

I'm sure this topic has been discussed in the past, but I would like to re-=
ask what your organization is using for Ticket Tracking? We are currently u=
sing BMC Service Desk Express, but are proactively looking at what are opti=
ons are since the product will be EOL in a few years. If you have a few sec=
onds, can you please reply answering the following questions:

  *   What product are you using for tracking trouble tickets?
  *   Are you satisfied with the product?
  *   Any concerns or general comments?
