Outsource Technical Support and Help Desk Teams with Emapta
If you want to upgrade your existing IT service management (ITSM)—or the end-to-end delivery of IT services to your customers—you can either expand your existing help desk team by adding more IT specialists with similar skill sets to build new capabilities by hiring team members who are proficient in these IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) framework core processes:
Service request management
Knowledge management
IT asset management
Incident management
Problem management
Change management
Typically, IT professional services firms or startups with a one-man help desk team resort to shelving their onshore scaling plans due to structural, talent, or cost issues.

Help desk outsourcing in the Philippines usually consists of frontline support members, meaning they are the first point of contact with your customers when they need help regarding your IT-related products or services. The function of this team is to manage incoming requests (usually via ticketing systems), quickly troubleshoot problems, and resolve issues to provide and maintain top-notch customer satisfaction.
Emapta has extensive experience in setting up help desk and service desk teams composed of entry–, mid- or senior-level professionals assuming the following roles:
Technical Support / Help Desk / Service Desk Team sample setup
IT Operations Manager
Service Desk Manager
Service Desk SME
Service Desk Analysts/Specialists from Levels 1-3 (Levels may depend on the size of your organisation)
For smaller organisations, help desk and service desk teams can be combined. The main difference between the two is that service desk focuses on delivering services to end-users as a whole (this is where contact centers come in to interact with the customer and coordinate possible issues with the support engineers in help desk teams) and its subset, help desk, focuses on troubleshooting and other technical solutions (incident management or break-fix issues).
