Web Help Desk is named a leader in help desk software by Software Advice

Software Advice (a Gartner company) recently published their FrontRunners quadrant, an assessment of the best help desk software for 2017. I’m excited to announce that SolarWinds Web Help Desk not only made the list, but was identified as a leader when compared to the total 460 help desk and IT service management solutions that were evaluated. That’s right—Web Help Desk was recognized as one of only three leaders in this category, and to top things off, it was positioned as the greatest value for small businesses among the entire field!

About the FrontRunners Quadrant

The FrontRunners quadrant for help desk software, which is powered by Gartner Methodology, offers a data-driven, comparative assessment of the capabilities and value these products provide for North American small businesses. In true form, the outputs of this assessment are displayed in a “sister” quadrant to that of the iconic Magic Quadrant, which is synonymous with the Gartner name. The top 20-25 solutions fall into one of the following four categories: Leaders, Masters, Pacesetters, and Contenders. Chief among them, however, are the Leaders, which offer the greatest breadth of functionality and serve the widest variety of customers.

Independent research, by companies such Software Advice, is key to helping small businesses make informed decisions about the right choice in software. These types of decisions become critical to supporting business needs and driving productivity.
