Success Stories

ecotel communication ag

ecotel communication ag successfully modernized its customized OTRS system to OTRS 8, despite the previous environment’s lack of update capability. The result: a smoother user experience, faster response and resolution times, and clearer, more transparent reporting for both IT and customer service.

Challenge

The previously used, heavily customized OTRS 7 instance had reached its technical limits—an update was no longer possible.

6.000-7.000 tickets per month

218 agents

Approach & Solution

In close collaboration with OTRS Consulting, ecotel decided to completely rebuild the system based on OTRS 8. The modernization was carried out in stages, with a clear focus on best practices and long-term scalability:

LaSuB

Without OTRS, we wouldn’t be able to work anymore. The added value is enormous.

The Challenge

Given the enormous number of teachers needing support, request management had become overly complicated, unclear, and inefficient.

1.100 tickets per month

7 agents

The Solution

According to Martin Widera, OTRS has delivered significant time savings to the State Office. It’s a night-and-day difference compared to before they had a ticketing system.

SIEVERS-GROUP

When deciding on OTRS, it was also important to the SIEVERS-GROUP that processes could be individually modeled and automated.

The Challenge

Continuous improvement is the credo of the SIEVERS-GROUP: support should be more efficient and of a higher quality for customers. It also strives to optimize the services and products provided. In order to be able to control these factors in a targeted manner, the relevant KPIs (key performance indicators) first had to be made visible and measurable.

1.200 tickets per month

90 agents

The solution

This has now been achieved. “With the help of OTRS, we were able to model and implement standardized processes for ticket processing throughout the company,” reports Henrik Kindt. This results in two key advantages: First, thanks to OTRS, it is possible to communicate with customers much more transparently and efficiently. Secondly, by measuring relevant KPIs, the SIEVERS-GROUP is able to monitor its service quality in a targeted manner and improve it immediately if necessary.

The customization options were important in our decision for OTRS. The price-performance ratio then tipped the scales.

The Challenge

Sales teams did not have a sufficient overview of customer inquiries and processes, sometimes duplicating work.

OTRS provides an organized overview of all processes and their processing status, and it has noticeably increased efficiency.
