Why Choose Vital Business Systems?

01.

LOCAL & RESPONSIVE HELPDESK:

Our helpdesk and dispatch are Calgary based and we answer to incoming e-mails and calls over voice as well as end-user generated tickets via the agent. We don’t have what is known in the industry as voicemail jail. If you call, we pick up the phone and immediately log the issue as well as dispatch appropriately.

02.

DEEP BENCH COVERAGE AND DISPATCH:

Most calls can be resolved remotely and in a timely manner, but we also dispatch techs to site for those issues that require a tech onsite. We are not too big to get you lost in our systems, but we are big enough to allow depth of coverage. So, if your assigned tech is on vacation or unavailable, the next tech gets dispatched. We are often complimented on our local helpdesk/dispatch systems.

03.
