Vision Helpdesk V3 Mobile Version

Mobile browsing experience is improving day by day – with your favorite browsers like FireFox, Opera & Skyfire  are already in a race to take mobile browsing to a next level. Mobile browsers are optimized so as to display web content most effectively for small screens on portable devices.

Mobile browser software must be small and efficient to accommodate the low memory capacity and low-bandwidth of wireless handheld devices. Considering this we have released Vision Helpdesk’s V3 Mobile Version  – Vision Helpdesk’s Mobile Version is designed specifically for use on mobile devices featuring low graphics and optimised pages for small screens.  Now your staff can access or solve tickets even while they are on move.

The mobile version of Vision  Helpdesk V3 is not a complete replacement of Manage Portal though it will allow your staff’s to perform operations like Tickets Summary, Tree View Listing of Companies, Departments & Ticket Statuses,  Open New Ticket, Reply Tickets and the new exciting feature Blabby.

The mobile version is light weight and runs smoothly on all available mobile browsers.

This time for V3 we have planned to develop Mobile Apps for various mobile operating systems like Iphone, Android, BlackBerry, Windows 7 phone and more.. We will keep you posted further..

As always we are waiting for your comment / suggestion / feedback on V3 mobile beta version..

Architecture and Designing User Interface were our top priorities from day one of V3 development – This time we wanted to bring a change in traditional design and architecture, A change just like Gmail brought to traditional email client like outlook. After I started using Gmail trust me I haven’t opened outlook for even single day and I know its not just me. :)  You bet! you will see the same kind of transition in V3.

We at Vision Helpdesk are too fierce to rest on our laurels — every improvements to our product just whets our appetite for MORE.. and more is coming this year. Evaluating from footprints of the past, analyzing present we are moving ahead to build the Vision Helpdesk V3 – A Next Generation Helpdesk Software..
Vision Helpdesk V3

Appropriately 2 years back we released Vision Helpdesk V2.0 with “AJAX Techniques” and unique feature like — “Multi-Domain / Satellite Helpdesk”  and that was a huge success.. You bet!  the trend will continue with V3.

From day one our aim is to offer a helpdesk solution that is “Simple To Use And More Responsive To UserA helpdesk system that should present the data to user instead of having user to locate the data“. Version 2 was our first milestone in this direction. Next with V3 we have planned to introduce techniques that no one has thought before and no other competitive helpdesk software has ever offered it..

Be Different

Doing Things Differently …

We have applied a out of box thought process to design V3 – This time we decided to step  into customers shoes and walk along  with them. If you pull out 10 helpdesk softwares  available in the market — you will  find  everyone is in the race of adding 100′s of features leaving  the core issues untouched and  unsolved — thats were we step in and  dare to do things differently.

Lets jump into more details of V3..

What is V3 ?

Vision Helpdesk V3 is a Next Generation Helpdesk Software that will make you fall in love with it.. and will change the way you currently manage your companies support.. A solution that fits to all size of companies.

Architecture

V3 is getting designed and engineered on completely new advance architecture  – The new architecture will make the system more Faster and Smarter.
Multi-Tasking

Just like V2 — we have made sure V3 will prove itself a Secured and Reliable script.

Multi-Tasking & Multi-Threading

V3′s architecture will give you ability to switch between tasks without losing data and pick up where you left off.

With the multi-threading feature see your jobs getting done lightning fast.

Non Suffocating and Less Cluttered Interface..

V3 is getting a new modern look  –   A Fresh and Clean interface were you will find every single thing is well organized and less cluttered.

Proactive Interface that will be more responsive to user thus, Increasing Productivity and Saving Time.

Industry Standards

V3 will follow standards like ITSM – ITIL – A perfect solution to small, medium and large companies.

Feature Rich

I am not going  to spill all beans at this stage – eventually we will disclose more :) For now I will say we have along list of features which we will share with you as we make a progress.

We are still open and processing feature requests — You can submit your feature request to support [ at] thevisionworld [ dot ] com

This was just an update to let you that we are working on V3 – Still many more V3 updates will follow. We will keep you posted with more details on V3… So Stay Tune..
