Higher user expectations. Increased responsibility. Staying abreast of the latest technology but within the budget. Limited resources to offer cost-effective solutions. Wrestle with loads of daily requests.

Yes, you heard it right! These are a few challenges faced by IT Service Desks. Being the backbone of modern enterprises, the IT Desk supports many technologies, serves as a connective tissue be-tween the technology operations and core business activities, manages third party relationships with outsourcing providers, and delivers quality services to the end-users.

Keeping your IT Desk running smoothly can be an endless challenge. And the only solution is - Automation.

Contrary to the fact IT Automation will replace internal IT staffs, studies say automation will actual-ly increase the department’s effectiveness reducing the hard labour of manual work while enhanc-ing employee satisfaction.
Why your IT desk needs automation 
Consider some of the top issues your IT desk receives regularly.

1.	What is the WiFi password?
2.	How can I reset my password?
3.	Can you help me with installing the printer?
4.	I want to install a VPN.
5.	I need help with setting up my webmail account.
6.	Issues with my OneDrive
7.	I cannot send emails
