Integration
The Zoho FSM extension integrates field service management with Zoho Desk. For example, if a ticket requires on-site service, the extension allows the support agent to convert the ticket into a work order within Zoho FSM, assign the task based on resource availability, and track service history. This integration streamlines field operations and enhances the coordination between support and field service teams.

Integration of Zoho Desk with Qntrl for seamless task management
Integrating Qntrl with Zoho Desk allows the customers and the agents to plan and track their tasks and requests at ease. When a customer raises a request, it often involves input from multiple teams to achieve the best resolution. This integration streamlines project planning and enhances cross-team collaboration. Agents with Desk and Qntrl access can monitor task progress, gaining clear insights into its status. If there is a critical deadline and there is a delay in one of the tasks, the agents can prioritize the task accordingly and either prioritize it for completion or promptly communicate the delay.
For example, if a travel request is raised, the support agent can create a Qntrl card and link it to the ticket for the operations team to work on this in Qntrl. Any updates made in Qntrl will be immediately reflected in Desk to give agents visibility into the tasks.

Using Agent Email Address as From Address
Currently, while replying to a ticket, it is possible for agents to choose their own email addresses as 'from' addresses. Although we built this just for that little extra flexibility, in hindsight, it hasn't figured much in conventional usage. Almost all businesses prefer that responses to their customers' tickets be sent from the common support/service email address and NOT from those of individual agents. During personal interactions at events, some of you have even made passing mentions aboutEdit and Delete options in Comments
